Architect Salvador Reyes Rios Recalls Ancient Mayan Techniques

The dramatic scale and sublime architectural lines of this award-winning home are in striking contrast to the vast great lawn and jungle that surrounds it.

Chic, Award-Winning Private Villa Outside Mérida

Designed by Yucatan architect Salvador Reyes Rios, this home uses the latest technologies and techniques to achieve results that are both historically authentic and original in vision. First place winner of the coveted Cemex Award for both residential and international architectural excellence, this stunning home makes an immediate visual and emotional impact. The contemporary private oasis is set within the luxurious Hacienda Sac Chich, a modern jewel within the Hacienda designed to capture the beauty of the Yucatan light and sky. Immersed in nature, the contemporary home is a respite from it all. Surrounded by lily-reflecting ponds and enclosed by 11-foot walls, it has two bedrooms and bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and infinity pool. Daily cleaning included.

Located in the small village of Sac Chich in the most historic region of the Yucatan, the home is placed on over two acres of what were once ancient henequen drying fields for industrial production of sisal. Surrounded by the original ten-foot masonry walls of a historic neighboring Hacienda that shares the property, the fields are now a massive lawn area lined with royal palms that create a large but very private world all your own.

Constructed using the ancient Mayan technique of chukum, the limestone and plaster are polished to a sleek finish that’s elegant and earthy.

Entirely open through the middle of the structure, the central living area along with the oversized ceiling and door heights give every room a dramatic sense of space.​With a sunken living room, dining room, and fully equipped kitchen, the house is ideal for entertaining and divides the private sleeping spaces to either side.

Please note There is an additional 10% service fee which is collected directly from the guest prior to arrival or on site.

Experiences

Ask about the experiences available at this and its sister property, from a traditional Mayan shaman cleansing ceremony to a mezcal tasting, Yucatec cooking class, or salsa lessons. Enjoy yoga, pilates or meditation in the gardens and exterior spaces, and private tours of downtown Merida, ancient ruins, or otherworldly cenotes.

Around

Located in the Mayan village of Sac Chich just a half-hour from the city of Merida, you are just outside of the town of Acanceh, and just under an hour from the famous Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza, Izamal, and the port town of Progresso on the gulf of Mexico. 

Situated along the convent route, there are several historic convents not to be missed including Tecoh, Muni, Mani, and Ticul as well as the Mayan Site of Mayapan. The Loltun Caves and Uxmal are an hour away and you're within a short drive to the many amazing cenotes or secret caves where you can swim in crystal clear water. Cancun is a 3-hour drive.
