Property Details
Hacienda San Antonio Silil is part of the colonial history of the Yucatan. Dating from the late 1600's, and first farmed as a hacienda in the 1700's, there are vestiges of early Spanish as well as Mayan civilization on the property. This 1,000 acre property is a nature lovers paradise, with 7 cenotes (these are the natural underwater river formations that appear on occasion throughout the peninsula). There is solar power driving the pump, and we have planted thousands of ornamental and fruiting species. The property would make an excellent retreat, eco-hotel, boutique hotel, and is also very well suited to planting of citrus, many other fruits, and other cash-generating species. The property is located near the town of Tekit, which is itself a historic stopover on several major touristic circuits through the peninsula: the route of Spanish Convents, the Hacienda route, the Cenote Route, and the Puuc route of Mayan culture. The important Mayan ruins of Mayapan are 10 minutes away. About 45 minutes from Merida, along the highway leading to Chetumal, gateway to the Mayan Riviera and its breathtaking Caribbean coastline, this is a truly incredible property at an attractive price.
