A rare 19th-century Yucatán hacienda combining authentic heritage, award-winning contemporary architecture, complete privacy, and turnkey hospitality and event infrastructure. Some properties offer exceptional architecture. Others offer history, privacy, or an extraordinary sense of place. Hacienda Acanceh brings all of these qualities together. Originally established around 1850 as a working henequen hacienda, this remarkable estate has been meticulously restored and thoughtfully expanded into an exceptional private property approximately 30 minutes from Mérida, Yucatán. Set on 1.68 hectares (4.14 acres) of lush countryside, the estate comprises approximately 919 m² (9,894 sq ft) of built space, nine bedrooms, nine bathrooms, multiple independent residences, swimming pools, landscaped gardens, and fully developed infrastructure for private living, boutique hospitality, retreats, and events for up to 150 guests. A HISTORIC HACIENDA REIMAGINED Hacienda Acanceh preserves the character and material richness of its original architecture. Historic limestone walls, massive wooden beams, remnants of iron machinery, and an iconic 26-meter (85-foot) chimney recall the property’s industrial past and its role in Yucatán’s henequen era. These historic elements have been complemented by contemporary architecture of exceptional quality. Casa Sisal, designed by renowned architect Salvador Reyes Ríos, received First Place in the CEMEX Mexico and International Awards in the Single Family Housing category. The result is a carefully balanced dialogue between past and present: authentic historic structures combined with generous contemporary spaces, natural light, modern comfort, and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. A PROPERTY DESIGNED FOR MANY WAYS OF LIVING The estate is organized into several independent residential and hospitality areas, allowing owners to enjoy complete privacy while accommodating family, friends, guests, retreats, or events. Casa de Máquinas – Historic Core The original heart of the hacienda, comprising Casa Vieja, Casa Nueva, and The Loggia. Historic architecture, open-air living areas, social spaces, and a central freshwater pool create an atmosphere rich in character. Casa Sisal – Contemporary Residence An award-winning modern residence with open-plan living, an infinity pool, enclosed private garden, and rooftop access. Casita Caliza – Private Guest Suite An intimate colonial-scale retreat featuring a stone bathtub, private garden, and fishpond. An ideal guest or honeymoon suite. Owner’s Home – Private Residence A separate residence providing privacy and independence, with office, garage, workshop, and private pool. Additional facilities include laundry areas, storage rooms, staff accommodation, and dedicated event bathrooms. GARDENS, WATER AND OPEN-AIR LIVING Water and landscape are central to the character of Hacienda Acanceh. Freshwater pools, reflecting ponds, lily ponds, mature trees, palms, manicured lawns, and carefully integrated water features create a sequence of tranquil outdoor spaces. The expansive grounds are equally suited to private enjoyment and professional events. A versatile event lawn can accommodate up to 150 guests, with layouts suitable for weddings, retreats, cultural gatherings, and private celebrations. A regulation-size bocce court, outdoor recreation areas, extensive on-site parking, and discreet circulation for guests, staff, and service providers further support the property’s hospitality potential. A property-wide irrigation and sprinkler system maintains the gardens and lawn areas throughout the estate. TURNKEY AND FULLY OPERATIONAL Hacienda Acanceh is offered fully furnished, fully equipped, and operational, allowing its next owner to begin enjoying or operating the estate immediately.
