Reserva Mikil en el corazón de la Riviera Maya
Where is Reserva Mikil?

15 miles South of colonial Valadolid, about a two hour drive from either the Cancun or Merida international airports.

What is the easiest way to get there?

Just get to Valladolid, sitting between roads 180 and 180D, exactly midway between Cancun and Merida.

We don't have the ability to take care of drive ins; please contact us in advance via email or telephone to schedule your visit.

Where can I stay?

There are several hotels in town for different likes and budgets, we offer a preferential rate for Reserva Mikil guests in three of them, ranging from 50 to $100USD per night.

What do I need to take for my visit?

Comfortable walking clothing and shoes, bio degradable sunscreen & insect repellent, drinking water, swimming apparel & towel and a camera.

What is there to do?

Yucatan is big in birdwatching, easily enjoyed on the property and about an hour away from the Ria Lagartos bio reserve.

The cenote is there to rappell, dive or just take a refreshing dip.

For beach days, shopping and restaurants: an hour drive North to San Felipe (excellent, inexpensive, fresh sea food!) on the Gulf of Mexico; or an hour drive to Tulum, on the Caribbean side; or under two hours East, to Cancun or under two hours West, to Merida.

For days of culture you can take a drive to colonial Valladolid or Izamal; or stay overnight in Merida and take the convents route.

Yucatan is the heart of the Maya land: archaeology and anthropology are everywhere you turn. Close by, you can get to Ek Balam, Chichen Itza, Coba, Tulm and many others.

Or just stay, move quietly and enjoy the unlimited peace..

How do I build there?

We have the crew, experience and connections for designing and building jungle retreats. We can easily support you with practical guidance or contracting the construction of any building from concept to turn key.

We have helped many people -all of them living elsewhere- over the last few years and will be happy to supply references upon request.

At present, "remote location" building cost is typicaly around $50USD per square foot, plus solar.
