It is now many more years later and I still feel the same way about it - and I still recommend the French Toast. I wrote this review

Whenever we feel we need a 'rest' from the hard life of Merida (and we mean this jokingly, of course) we splurge at the Hacienda! Special offers of "stay 3 nights pay for 2" in one of the suites and dinner every night at the restaurant is pure luxury. The service is EXCELLENT, the people are friendly, the place is a wonderfully restored jewel. I have travelled in many, many different countries and I personally consider the 'Hacienda' one of the most beautiful hotels I have seen and stayed at. Of course the price is HIGH, but where in Europe (I compare to Europe, as I am European) can you experience pure luxury and ambiance for 325 dollars a night? and this is not one of those anonymous 'sheraton-hilton-etc' which look the same whether you are in Beijing, Singapore or New York. This is a place with a wonderful atmosphere, high ceilings, old furniture, woodcarvings, perfectly restored. We LOVE this place! and we LOVE the fact that there are NO TV SETS in the rooms.....:=) Who needs a TV in a place like this?

Great service, excellent food, beautiful setting. It doesn't get much better than this, in my opinion. I'd be surprised that anyone didn't love it. The only downside is that prices are high enough and the location a bit remote enough (from central Merida) that we can't dine there for every meal. We once had a table of six seated promptly for a wonderful afternoon meal, while Governor Patron and several dozen acolytes dined in a private room. Their staff and kitchen were obviously quite occupied, but our service and food was excellent as always. Highly recommended. Xcanatun is one of the highlights of Merida.
