See my original (2014) review below. We returned with out-of-town friends in 2016 and explored a little more, touring the small on-site Mayan ruins and getting to know some of the staff. We're looking forward to spending a few days at Las Aguilas again in 2018. -- We booked three nights for our trip around the Yucatan Peninsula in January, based on Trip Advisor reviews and photos. As noted elsewhere, Las Aguilas is not anywhere near the city of Oxkutzcab (just in the district of the same name), and it is way past the tiny village of Xul, on a road to nowhere, so it is far from the ideal location to explore the Ruta Puuc or shop in the local market towns. As a consequence, we spent a lot more time driving on torn-up dirt roads than we had planned. For the Ruta Puuc, we recommend The Pickled Onion in Santa Maria. That said, however, we found that we were the only guests in a very large compound, and the spa and restaurant were as advertised. Everybody we had any contact with was friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. For around $50 USD per night, we had a two bedroom, two bath cottage on a paved street. There was a kitchen but no stove or refrigerator, so we took breakfast and dinner in the restaurant. All meals were very good, relying for the most part on products grown or made on-site: milk, cheese, eggs, honey, fruits and vegetables. Most people we met were Italian, and yes, you can easily get a good cappuccino, a decent pizza (not up to New York standards but remarkable for a remote location off the grid in the middle of the jungle!), and Italian and Chilean wines at reasonable prices. Everybody speaks Spanish, most speak Italian, and quite a few speak at least some English. The spa treatments, too, were very good and reasonably priced. They have a very clean swimming pool, and you can visit their dairy farm and cheese factory. We didn't have a chance to tour the grounds, see the artificial lake, etc., but would opt to do so next time we're in the area. If you live in Merida or Campeche or Valladolid, this place would be a great weekend getaway, with wholesome food, spa treatments, and freedom from traffic, media, etc., at a tiny fraction of the price of equivalent services on the Mayan Riviera. read more
