"Rancho Kuxtal feels like discovering an idyllic secret. It's so small and tucked away off the tourist route in Yucatan. Kasie and Victor are such welcoming hosts and we felt totally at ease. There are masses of animals - domesticated, wild and somewhere in between. Cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, ducks, iguana, birds and of course the horses. They're all so loved and well cared for. The horses are calm, well trained and well kept. We did an hour long trail, very well suited to my friend who is a complete beginner. Victor and Miguel made her feel so confident she trotted in the corral at the end. Also because Yucatan is so flat, it's easy riding in the heat. The photographs of the accommodation don't do it justice; the ranch is rustic but the cabins are surprisingly luxe. The ranch is easy to get to from Tulum or Cancun; buses go frequently to Tizimin and from there it's a short taxi (about $100 pesos). There's not much accessible from the ranch unless you have a car or are happy to take taxis everywhere. But that's also what's great about it - it's a quiet retreat. Couldn't recommend more. "
