Covering 530 sqm (5,700 sq ft), this unique house seamlessly integrates into the lush surroundings of Hacienda Xcanatún, offering a serene escape for both guests and locals.

Architectural Harmony with Nature

The design embraces a linear pavilion layout, which enhances human scale while delivering privacy for the spa’s flagship services.

Materials play a crucial role in defining the spa’s ambiance. The choice of structural steel, regional stone, marble flooring, flattened chukum, and indigenous woods like cedar and tzalam showcases a commitment to sustainability. Each element fosters a harmonious dialogue with the various architectural styles found in the hacienda.

Creating Inviting Spaces
