Coming from Costa Rica, a country renowned for its natural wonders, I hold high expectations when it comes to immersing myself in nature. Yet, my visit to Los 7 Cenotes in Mérida exceeded every expectation and left me in awe of its sheer beauty and thoughtful care.
The crystal-clear waters of the cenote are pristine, thanks to the team’s dedication to sustainability. They intentionally allow the cenotes to "breathe" between visits, ensuring the water remains naturally purified—a practice that speaks volumes about their respect for the environment.
The staff’s exceptional hospitality is another highlight. From the moment we arrived, we felt like cherished guests in an extended family. They catered to every detail, offering midday snacks to keep us energized and later treating us to a delicious traditional Méridan lunch. The food alone is worth mentioning—authentic, flavorful, and made with care.
While there are countless cenotes in the Yucatán region, Los 7 Cenotes stands out for many reasons. The experience is entirely personalized—tailored to your age, interests, and group dynamics. If you’re lucky, as we were, you might even get the rare opportunity to have the cenote all to yourself. This solitude allows you to fully marvel at its natural wonders, free from the overcrowding and wear-and-tear so common in other cenotes.
The absolute pinnacle of the experience, though, was visiting the cave. Words hardly do justice to the magic of this sensorial journey. It’s an intimate connection with nature that awakens every sense, leaving you with a profound appreciation for its perfect, intricate design.
If you’re planning a visit to the Yucatán and are overwhelmed by the choices, let me make it simple for you: choose Los 7 Cenotes.
