Casa Hormiga

Find inner peace (and everything else) at Casa Hormiga, a homey hideaway a block away from the banks of lake Bacalar. Silence descends daily from 10pm to 10am in order for serenity to permeate, aided along the way by rituals in the traditional temazcal steam lodge, cacao ceremonies and sound healing. Mimic a monk at the library, in one of the three pools, on your jungle-facing treehouse’s balcony or in the official chill-out space, the Nest. For wellbeing of the more tastebud-pleasing type, beeline for the Brote restaurant and be soothed by its Mexican and Middle Eastern mix-up.

In the south-eastern Mexican state of Quintana Roo and close to the banks of its bluest lagoon, Casa Hormiga is in the town of Bacalar.
