Hacienda San Gabriel de las Palmas
Mexico: Morelos: Amacuzac

This property is truly magnificent! Upon entrance to what was once the property that produced the largest amount of sugar in all the Americas, guests are instantly taken to a bygone era of colonial times and Mexican hacienda life. Surrounded by lush green gardens in a tropical setting, this authentic 16th century hacienda turned hotel that was built by order of Hernan Cortes is just 30 minutes from Cuernavaca and approximately 1.5 hours from Mexico City. Renovated by a famed Mexican set designer, the grand interior spaces are filled with antiques, original artwork and contemporary amenities.

Each accommodation is different but all have their charm and alluring quality such as private dipping pools and terraces, extra large bathrooms, stately living rooms, or large four-poster beds. Room Abuelita is an excellent option for families as it sleeps up to four persons. The verdant grounds include stables for horseback riding (scenic guided horseback riding excursions are available), two outdoor pools, a holistic indoor/outdoor spa, gardens, two restaurants, tennis and paddle courts and multitudes of enchanting spaces to host private dinners or events. The location of this hotel is great for day trips to Taxco, river rafting on Amacuzac, the grand archeological pyramid site of Xochicalco, and of course to Cuernavaca; a city with many museums, shops and excellent dining.
