We arrived in Valladolid in the morning and my wife and I began to think about which cenotes we would visit since it was the first time we were in this beautiful place.... read more through the Tripadvisor application and immediately we were caught immediately I contacted and the owner of the place answered us we reserved at 1 pm he told us that we would be two couples who would be there but what would be our surprise that we were alone a place full of a lot of energy very beautiful you can not miss the attention of the owner and his wife and daughter excellent there is no doubt that it is a magical place thank you for everything
07/05/2022A wonderful experience, the best cenote I have ever visited, the explanation and experience are unique, different and very emotional, the ritual makes you feel very relaxed.
The owners are magical people and... read more Very friendly. You have to visit this place!!
01/01/1970Emi BEntering was already magical, I regained the ability to be moved by so much beauty.
Thank you Armando and the guide for sharing the beauty of the place with such generosity.
20/12/2021Being able to bathe without people in that cave is a unique experience!
I was a little scared because of the music, which creates an underworld atmosphere, as the... read more Mayans but I recommend it! A unique cenote and different from the rest!
He also highlighted that they have a small stand/store and the money raised from there goes to an organization that helps single mothers.JL

We had the opportunity to visit it on a rainy day after a storm that raised the water level (making it even more mystical).
They explain the 9 levels of Xibalba, tell us about the Popol Vuh, the Aluxes, the Noria, and other stories.
Organizing for a Tour? Immediate
Do you accept families? Yes (we went with 2-year-old babies)
Relevant things? Kindness, explanation, magical place, exceptional regional food and Mayan ritual (which I later talked to my parents about, it is 100% true that permission was requested to enter the Cenote)
I could spend a lot of time describing our visit but it is something that nobody should miss and we will return (it is already planned). Thank you, really thank you 😁Lenin Che

01/01/1970It's worth the drive!! I was there yesterday and I was amazed by the beauty. The place is in perfect condition, very well maintained despite... read more They are not strict. We arrived late, they gave us a night tour and it was a wonderful experience. We walked through 8 platforms, while they gave us explanations and a Mayan ritual until we reached the 9th one. THE WATER! It's great because a large area of water only reaches your waist, especially for older adults, children or those who don't know how to swim, like me 😅. Afterwards we had dinner (we had dinner outdoors) EVERYTHING was delicious!! They have lockers, water shoe rentals, very comfortable changing tables and many more things. And it's very important to mention: THE PRICE IS VERY AFFORDABLE, call, make a reservation, these people are extremely kind 💕
01/01/1970PeterpachusBeautiful place to visit - We went as a family, when you arrive at the place it certainly doesn't seem like this place exists, like almost all the cenote places in Yucatan this is a place full of mysticism,... read more history but above all of beautiful things, on the tour they take you to see the cenote and the various formations that the water has made in the sinkholes over the years, the reward when you reach the end of the tour is that you can take a good dip and cool off in the water that is at a very pleasant temperature, the place has a space to change and to eat, one of those places that you will always remember

The cenote is magnificent, full of stalactites and stalagmites, which makes it a unique experience for adults and children. The water is crystal clear and has lighting.... read more Blue color, it becomes an incredible experience, saying that it is the best covered cenote in the area falls short, it is something that has to be seen personally to be able to admire its greatness, it is a perfect family plan, with friends or as a couple, in the same way the dinner was spectacular, all the delicious options, the drink and the dessert, the staff was super attentive and very helpful, in our case the cenote was just for us, do not hesitate to book the plan, it is wonderful
