First of all: Palenque did not turn out to be the Pueblo Magico imagined, so we were very glad not to stay in the city. Easy to get to the archeological site without getting into the city. Super friendly reception. The cabin had the AC on, so it was nice and cool inside. Everything was super clean, even the shower head looked like new. The bed was firm and super nice for sleeping. Great attention to detail. The pool was amazing and it was cleaned every day. Having a restaurant on site was also a big plus. While expensive for Mexican prices, the food was good but the servings are small. Breakfast was also good but the servings are small. We like a big breakfast so that we can have a late lunch. Parking on the property, absolutely secure. Overall a great experience and we would come back in a heartbeat.

Wi-Fi is not stable or fast enough. They should look into getting a Starlink. The road is a bit of a challenge but doable. Just take it easy ;) I would recommend cleaning some of the trash on the road. I would have loved to have a small desk in the room.

The hotel is a family-run place with a beautiful setting in the countryside outside town. The owners are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We visited the Mayan ruins, Aluxes park (which has many types of local animals) and the forest. When we let them know we are vegetarian, they went to the market and bought different vegetables we had never tried before to cook something special for dinner. Gabriel, who works in the restaurant, is also very kind. The breakfast was very good. In general, it is great to see a small family-run place that focuses on sustainability and local culture.

Had a wonderful stay for 2 nights while visiting Palenque and surrounding areas. Cute, clean family owned/run boutique hotel in nature. Elena was super nice and accommodating. The breakfast in the morning was so wonderful. They have a great community dinning area and bar down by the pool. We had drinks by the pool one afternoon and ate dinner as well. Most of the food is from their on-site farm. The rooms were nice sized and EXTREMELY clean. Was very impressed how spotless they were everyday considering we were in the jungle. This hotel would be a bit challenge IF you didn't have your own vehicle but I'm sure they would be able to work something out. Thanks for a great stay! We will be back!

The only challenge was the access road from the main highway. If you have your own car, not an issue but could be tough when raining.

What a beautiful place! Food is amazing although a little expensive. Chilaquiles Verde was the best we had the whole of Mexico and make sure you get a tascalatte! Staff did everything they could to help us and made us feel really welcome. Bed was super comfy and room really clean. Highly recommended!!! We were so sad to leave. Also, the bird life here was incredible- we saw trogons, a squirrel cuckoo, aracari, hummingbirds and toucans to name a few while sitting in the restaurant. Twitchers this is the place for you!

Winika is located outside Palenque. The location is on the top of a hill and in the middle of the jungle. Waking up in the morning with the sound of Howler monkeys is amazing. The best thing about Winika is not the amazing location, not the great food served, not the spotless cabins but the people that work there. Helene (Manager) and here team make it happen. We thank her and team for making this trip a very special one

Actually nothing all was perfectly organized. This also applies for the 5 trips organized by Winika during our stay.

what a mignificent place! a true gem just outside Palenque. you can tell that the owners really care about their guests and everything they do, they do according to their own style and way of life. it’s all about ecology, nature and farming life. We had a large wooden cabin, really neat and clean. with a porch for when it rains (and it can really pour sometimes) or just to enjoy the sun. the pool looks greenish at first but that’s cause it’s a natural pool without chemicals. a great place when you love ecolodging and if you don’t mind waking up with the sound of howler monkeys, hummingbirds or stumble on some iguanas on your way to breakfast (which is great by the way)

A fridge in the cabin would be a great idea because it gets really hot inside when the AC is not turned on Coffee is included in the breakfast, cappuccino not. That’s a bit odd, but just a minor detail

wauw 🤩! beautiful location, really nice clean and comfy cabins. The place is gem for nature lovers. they have a natural pool which also invites birds to take a dip! The little critters/ frogs will keep the kids entertained for hours. We watched a beautiful big heron spending hours around the natural pool and the vegetation looking for a snack. while the howler monkeys give the finishing toch with there presence in the distance! we even saw a few Alting around the premises. it’s family run, really friendly and helpfull people.

everything was perfect!

Everything. The location is just outside the town but you feel completely immersed in nature. Our room was spacious, immaculately clean, bright and had excellent air conditioning. The bed was huge and so comfortable. The staff were so accommodating, warm and efficient. They answered all our questions every day.

We loved everything. It is incredibly beautiful, safe and the only feedback we have is that it is so much better in real life than it looks here on booking.com. The food was great and we saw so much wild life, including howler monkeys, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, iguanas… it was so special!

Very atmospheric and relaxed environment. Small resort run by a friendly family. Natural swimming pool is great for swimming and relaxing. The restaurant has a nice terrace overlooking the jungle and they make tasty fruit drinks. Evening meal was nice too. During our tour we enjoyed relaxing here for a few days.

Nice and helpful stuff. The location stunning in the middle of the jungle. Very nice food. Interesting pool (not for everyone).

Terrible issues with the restrooms. Had to call multiple times the staff for fixing. There kind of thing should just not happen. The dirt road to the location should be better kept.
