Hacienda Oxta: A Timeless Legacy in the Heart of Yucatán

Located in the charming village of Oxtapacab, just minutes from the city of Mérida, Hacienda Oxta is an exceptional historic estate with outstanding potential for events, hospitality, or a heritage-focused project. Built in 1887, the property is a distinguished example of 19th-century neoclassical architecture, characteristic of Yucatán’s traditional henequen haciendas. Set on an 11-hectare estate, the hacienda is surrounded by lush vegetation and open landscapes that provide privacy, natural beauty, and a privileged setting. Its architectural character is expressed through elegant pediments, round arches, and classical columns, reflecting the strong European influence of the period. The property is thoughtfully organized into three main sections: the former workers’ residences arranged around a central plaza; the historic production area, including the machine house, warehouses, and packing facilities; and the private section, composed of the main residence, its gardens, and orchard. The main house, of eclectic style with classical influence, features a formal entrance with a Neo-Baroque crown and porticoed corridors that open onto gardens and terraces, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. The hacienda compound offers generous and versatile amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen, four air-conditioned bedrooms, four full bathrooms, multiple living areas, dining room, swimming pool, covered outdoor grilling area, exterior bar, private chapel, and expansive gardens ideal for events. Additional features include a secondary residence with expansion potential, office areas, an industrial zone with truck loading dock, machine room, and robust agricultural and electrical infrastructure. Hacienda Oxta represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic estate of architectural, cultural, and commercial significance in one of southeastern Mexico’s most promising regions.
