Enjoy staying at any of our historic Chichen Itza's archaeologists cottages and help us care for the environment by following a few tips:

 When staying two nights, keep your
 towels and linens off the floor to be
 reused at least two days in a row.

 Request a fresh jar of drinking water
 it is free, rather than plastic bottled
 water which we sale but prefer not to!

 Turn off your room's A/C, lights, fan,
 etc. when leaving your room always!
 Cool nights do not run A/C, just a fan.

 Use pump-spray rather than aerosol
 cosmetics and bio-friendly repellents.
 Do not throw paper or items in W.C.
