Slow Living Retreat in Ixil with heated pool & tub
Description
Escape to a Tuscan-inspired countryside retreat in Ixil, where stone walls, chukum finishes, and dappled light create a serene slow-living experience. Surrounded by endemic trees, this private oasis features a heated pool, lush gardens, and beautifully designed indoor-outdoor spaces. Thoughtfully equipped with modern comforts, it’s the perfect balance of nature, design, and tranquility, ideal for unwinding, reconnecting, and enjoying Yucatán at its finest. The space Each bedroom at the casa is designed as a quiet retreat, where natural materials and thoughtful craftsmanship come together to create a deeply calming atmosphere. The walls are finished in handcrafted mampostería, adding texture, depth, and a timeless character that connects the space to the region’s traditional building techniques. Above, warm wooden ceilings bring a sense of intimacy and softness, while allowing the space to breathe and stay naturally cool. Soft natural light filters through, highlighting the earthy tones and subtle imperfections that make each room feel authentic and grounded. Views of surrounding greenery create a constant connection to nature, making every morning and evening feel slow, peaceful, and intentional. For comfort, each bedroom is equipped with air conditioning, a TV, and high-quality linens and towels, ensuring a stay that feels both elevated and effortless. These are not just bedrooms, they are spaces designed for rest, disconnection, and a return to simplicity. Guest access There will be a lockbox in the front gate for easy self check-in access.
