PB hotel design editorial

A seventeenth-century henequen hacienda on the outskirts of Mérida, its exterior walls washed in the particular cadmium yellow that colonial Yucatán adopted from Spanish baroque tradition, forms the architectural heart of Hacienda Xcanatun. The property joined Banyan Tree's Angsana Heritage Collection following a careful restoration that retained the original casona's white-arched portals, wrought-iron stair railings, and heavy timber-framed windows while threading contemporary hospitality through rooms that once processed agave fibre for rope and twine. Inside the main house, the interiors layer dark exposed ceiling beams and encaustic-patterned limestone floors against warm walnut millwork and upholstered headboards in woven textile — a palette that keeps one foot in Yucatecan craft tradition and the other in the kind of refined tropical minimalism that defines the Angsana brand across Southeast Asia. The newer villa accommodation pushes further into the surrounding jungle, floor-to-ceiling glazed walls dissolving the boundary between air-conditioned interior and private plunge pool terrace, dry-stack stone walls enclosing each garden in a material that mirrors the region's ancient Maya construction techniques. The restaurant in the original casa principal sets a black-and-cream marble checkerboard floor beneath tall cedar-framed windows and a cluster of pierced-metal pendant lights whose filigree pattern draws loosely from Moorish precedent. At the pool pavilion, rope-wrapped ceiling panels and woven cord dining chairs hold the composition in a register that feels genuinely regional rather than generically resort.

Hacienda Xcanatun, Angsana Heritage Collection Reviews

"Beautiful mature planting all throughout the hacienda. AMAZING pool with plenty of lounge chairs around the pool, all with towels on the chairs for keeping them fresh for each guest, and a towel for drying off. These little touches make a place go from good to great. We stayed in suite 317 with plenty of space for a couple and a private front porch and back patio. This is one of the older buildings with beautiful traditional architecture and completely modern on the inside with large shower and separate room for the toilet, which is very nice for privacy. The service by all of the staff was great, from reception to pool to restaurant and all other staff too."

"It is truly a shame that such an extraordinary and well-located property suffers from subpar service and operational failures. While the potential is there, the service under resort host Airam results in a lamentable experience. Despite the commendable efforts of staff members, the overall guest service by Airam is marred by exorbitant wait times and a blatant lack of attention to detail. Furthermore, the spa staff was conspicuous by their absence. If this hotel were managed effectively, it would be magnificent; however, the current state of affairs is deeply disappointing. I am uncertain if I will return."

"This was such an incredible surprise. It's quite an expensive hotel for the area and I wanted to have a special experience so I chose it. The staff has been extraordinary! from the dpa to Armin at the pool bar, these individuals made me feel like they actually cared that I was there, they were interested in who I was as a person, and they made my stay feel more like an extension of my life, hanging out with good friends and enjoying the best that life has to offer. I cannot express how impressed I was with the service at this hotel! I will be back very soon,"

"If you are staying near Merida, come here! The rooms are absolutely beautiful, but what makes this place is THE STAFF. From reception: Brenda, Marcos, housekeeping, the bellboys… everyone is fantastic. The BEST however, is Armin at the pool bar, Lol-Ha. Amazing bartender and the most friendly, sublime service ever! Just love this place and I’ll be back."
