Destination:
Days: 8Rooted in the spirit of the Yucatán and brought to life through thoughtful design and immersive experiences, this eight-day journey is a celebration of place, heritage, and well-being. Begin at Chablé Yucatán, where your casita is tucked within a lush jungle estate surrounding a sacred cenote. Here, time slows to the rhythm of nature as you reconnect with yourself and the land. From wellness rituals and Mayan cooking in rural communities to private boat rides through Celestún’s flamingo-filled lagoons and cultural moments in Mérida, each day invites depth and discovery. Evenings are for reflection – over a jungle-framed dinner at Ixi’im or a quiet glass of wine beneath the stars.
The journey continues on the Mexican Caribbean coast, where Chablé Maroma offers a barefoot-luxury escape along a private stretch of white-sand beach. Hidden within the tropical jungle, your treetop villa becomes a serene hideaway – complete with a plunge pool, open-air living spaces, and sea breezes drifting through tall windows. Days here are unhurried and soulful: snorkel turquoise waters on a private yacht cruise across shimmering waters, unwind with curated tastings, or cycle along quiet jungle paths. With impeccable service and a deep connection to nature, this coastal finale offers a graceful end to a journey of renewal, connection, and ease.

To begin the day, your private guide will pick you up from your hotel and drive to the Granada community, located to the southwest of Mérida.
Upon arrival, you´ll be welcomed into the traspatios (backyards) of local homes, where a group of Mayan women cultivate and tend their gardens daily as an important source of nutrition for their communities.

You´ll also get to make fresh tortillas in the Yucatán style, prepared with corn that´s grown organically.
Under the guidance of your expert hosts, learn how to cook typical appetizers and ´Cochinita Pibil´, a quintessential Yucatecan Mayan dish that dates to pre-Hispanic times. The mouthwatering meal is made by marinating pork in citrus juice and spices, wrapping it in banana leaves, and slow roasting it in a pit oven in the ground, known as a ´pib´.
While your Cochinita Pibil is cooking, play a game to identify the different types of vegetables and seeds grown in the traspatio, using only your senses! You´ll also discover the importance of a species of bees for the local environment and get to try the Melipona honey they produce.
