The history of Hacienda Temozón Sur

Temozón Sur belongs to the group of grand henequen estates built in the 19th century, when Yucatán's fibre export brought wealth to plantation owners. The main buildings were designed with thick stone walls and high ceilings suited to the climate.

After the industry's decline the estate was abandoned and later restored as a hotel, keeping the arches, courtyards and stonework intact.
