2 veces por año venimos a este lugar y es fantástico tanto en la atención y calidez del anfitrión y su personal como las habitaciones, cudbts con amplia alberca. Y temazcal qué lo disfrutas mucho. Y próximamente tendrá un cenote actualmente en preparación
Ein schönes und liebevoll seit 2024 eröffnetes kleines Resort abseits der Touristen. Sehr ruhig mit netten sauberen Zimmern und einer Gemeinschafts-Küche mit Aufenthaltsraum. Das Frühstück ist sehr lecker und wird individuell auf den Geschmack der Gäste zubereitet Der Eigentümer ist dabei, es ständig zu verschönern und zu erweitern. Demnächst soll die Cenote fertig werden.
We love this place, the owner Benjamin was so nice and helpful, he made us fell at home. The staff were nice and friendly. This resort was the most beautiful and peaceful place we have stayed. We will definitely will be returning.
Clearly one of the best campground i ve been in mexico. The owner, Benjamin, is amazing, passionate about eco construction and maya culture, he is always there to help you in anyway. The place is beautiful and the pool just incredible...I highly recommend it
We loved our stay at Xbalche! The place is beautiful and very quiet. The owner is very nice and helpful. I highly recommend and would definitively stay again.
We are overlanders travelling with a camper. We were the first camper to arrive at XBalche, which was not officially open yet. The British owner, Benjamin is very helpful and kind. We had all the comfort we needed. We enjoyed the surroundings and the great pool. Highly recommended!
A unique and new facility, with an impressive pool. we stayed with our RV. The shed area is very comfortable with the very large lounge with fans and eight slidable doors to create plenty of ventilation! many areas to relax and unwind. We were very impressed by all the assistance given to us by the staff there going out of their way to assist us with finding local shops and things that we needed. Highly recommended.
The only downside to this marvelous place is that we could only stay one night. Benjamin is an amazing host, and his place is as close to paradise as it gets. The rooms were beautifully designed and we're very clean. The breakfast was beautiful, with vegetarian and options, fresh seasonal fruit and delicious coffee. The location is amazing for exploring the nearby sights, while still being tucked away to feel secluded and at peace in nature. I would rate 10 stars if I could! Truly a gem of a place, highly recommended!

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
