Retreat Center

Rancho Encantado, a small family-owned resort and retreat center in Mexico, offers the very finest in personalized retreat facilities. The Rancho is a hidden jewel, nestled along the shores of Laguna Bacalar, in the wild, alluring southern Yucatan Peninsula, an area virtually untouched by tourism. Designed with the vision of small common-interest groups coming together in a secluded, serene setting, Rancho Encantado offers a beautiful, comfortable place to work and be together. Impeccable service is our standard for professional organizations, spiritual retreats, wellness workshops, creative development conferences, family or friend reunions.
