The Japoneza Retreat was an exceptional place to stay—quiet, peaceful, and incredibly relaxing. While the exterior might initially be a bit surprising, once you step inside, it truly feels like a hidden oasis. We particularly enjoyed the massages and the jacuzzi, which were definitely highlights of our stay. The staff was outstanding, always attentive and eager to accommodate our needs, from arranging taxis and drinks to providing towels and booking tours. The retreat is a short 10–20 minute walk from the town, where you'll find a variety of restaurants and cafes. Overall, a fantastic experience!

We stayed here as pre wedding hotel. We enjoyed the best message ever received. The place is serene, the rooms and property are beautiful. You are a few blocks from dinning area, and no food service available at hotel. You can order coffee, and there is a bar. You can have food delivered. Beds are great, staff is great, messages are the best!

Staff was friendly and very sweet. Very responsive to our requests and questions. We didn’t get any food bc the chef’s hours were very short/limited. We used Uber Eats to obtain meals when we didn’t want to go out. The ambiance was great and relaxing. I wish the surrounding were more conducive to a retreat. Lots of dogs barking and the neighbors playing music until 3 am. We also wished the room had more items to keep you self sufficient. I would have liked a small refrigerator in the room to store cold drinks, creamer for my coffee or just water. We threw away a lot of food bc there was no way to keep it safe in the room. All in all it was still a very relaxing vacation. I absolutely loved the serenity of the room, the small Terrance with the hammock, and the tub in the room.

Amazing, relaxing stay!

Wow! Such an amazing stay here! Unfortunately we only had one night here because our flight was the next day, but can’t wait to go back to this place when I’m in Merida again. Everything about this stay was done with so much detail, a green tea go welcome my friend and I, a wet cloth with oils to help relax us immediately, a personalized written note in the room…everything was thought out! We were helped by Jessy and her team and it was such a pleasure! We needed a taxi at 4 am, and it was booked for us in a blink of an eye. My friend and I booked massages ( which include a facial btw) and were so good! Have already recommended to our friends that live in Merida, because everyone needs to stay here! Haha
