![ A little lesser-known than many of the ancient ruins in Central America, Palenque - in Chiapas, Mexico - is still a great spot to check out while in the area. 

Getting there takes a bit of time, but you'll be rewarded with smaller crowds, and a little more "left to the jungle" vibe.

The Mayans left so mysteries but they’re not gone. Our next adventures In the Chiapas aim to meet some of these people and to understand more about indigenous life, culture, struggles and daily life.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (36 reviews)

Winíka Alterra is a small, family owned hotel and resort. The property consists of eleven private cabins. They’re very well maintained and with all the amenities. The staff is very helpful, accommodating, and detailed oriented. All the meals were delicious, fresh, and locally sourced-made from ingredients found at the hotel’s on site farm. (They even make their own chocolate which is used in the duck mole, desserts, or served hot). The beds and bedding are very comfortable, The quiet, jungle environment makes for a restful stay. Our only suggestion would be to invest in entertainment options during rainy days, such as a ping pong table, card games, or family friendly board games.

Room was extremely humid. Bathtub takes hours to fill with warm water because the watwr heater is too small. Main jacuzzi didn’t work and the bed was unstable and made SO much noise. Most certainly doesn’t feel like a “5 star hotel” as described in google.
