Property info
Named as one of the Best Places to Go in 2023 by Condé Nast, Galopina was featured in magazines such as Architectural Digest, OpenHouse Magazine and Archdaily. The house was designed in collaboration with Taller de Arquitectura Contextual (TACO), a Yucatecan workshop with a defined style, between sobriety and heart.
Galopina is a hotel house made with love, hidden in the heart of the Yucatecan jungle. Located in the middle of the Yucatecan jungle on a 7 hectare plot of land, Galopina is a haven of peace; time stands still and you live at the rhythm of the sun.
All rooms have a private terrace or porch where you can read, rest, enjoy the silence or watch the birds, the vegetation and the shining stars at night. In the common area there is a swimming pool. It is also possible to walk along the paths near the house, among the dense Yucatecan vegetation. Breakfast and daily room cleaning are included.
Neighborhood info
Galopina is in the middle of the countryside. The nearest town, Acanceh, offers the daily life of a Yucatecan village, with its market in the mornings and the ringing of the church bells in the afternoons. From Galopina, by car, you can go to : - Archaeological site of Uxmal - Magical town of Izamal - Archaeological site of Maypan - Magical town of Mani - Thousands of cenotes
