About this place
Hacienda San Gabriel de las Palmas sits at kilometer 41.8 of the federal Cuernavaca-Chilpancingo highway, in the municipality of Amacuzac, Morelos. With 1,074 reviews and a 4.7-star rating, its offering as an exclusive hotel in a 16th-century hacienda places it in the luxury segment of the region.
The property was originally a sugar hacienda, a type of estate that defines the historical landscape of Morelos. The conversion to a hotel preserves the monumental structure: its own chapel, stone arcades, gardens with mature palm trees (hence its name), pool, and spa. The on-site chapel simplifies the logistics of religious weddings by eliminating the transfer between church and venue.
The location in Amacuzac, south of Cuernavaca, offers greater isolation than the haciendas near the Morelos capital. The landscape is tierra caliente: drier, warmer, with subtropical vegetation. For a weekend wedding, the distance from CDMX is approximately 2 hours by highway.
