About this place
Wakax Hacienda is a boutique hotel located at kilometer 239 of the Cancún-Tulum highway, in Tulum's area of influence. Its membership in Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) places it in the independent luxury hospitality segment. With 186 reviews and a 4.8-star rating, it maintains a high level of satisfaction.
Wakax's main differentiator is its private cenote, an underground body of water exclusive to the property. Cenotes are unique geological formations of the Yucatán Peninsula, and having one within the venue opens scenic possibilities that no other type of space can offer: ceremonies by crystal-clear water, photo sessions in a protected natural environment.
The property's boutique scale means a limited number of rooms and spaces, which translates into exclusivity for the event. For weddings seeking to fully privatize a hotel, Wakax offers a format where the wedding is the main event, not an add-on to hotel operations.
