Very nice cenote with two cabins and a campground. 350 for the cabin and 70 per person for the cenote. Camping is 150 per person and entrance included.

Still $50pesos per person, however we would debate the water isn’t THAT clean as there are sooo many swallows nesting right above the water. Smells strong as you start on the stairs. It’s beautiful to look at though. You have to be really careful when you get to the bottom of the stairs as there was a thick layer of slippery algae to walk on (big concrete pad) before you could jump off into the deep water. A rope swing and small diving platform. cabanas for rent $350mx. Tent camping $70pperson. Not many flat options to pitch our tent so we camped at las Grutas

Price in now $50 pp and an additional $70 if you’d like to camp. They have cabañas for $350.
In my opinion not the best cenote, too many birds nesting making the place smell, and of course most of the droppings land in the water. Lots of algae and sediment in the water. Very slippery concrete landing.
But nice stalactites, decent stair access, a nice area with hammocks and little tables to picnic and relax. Refreshing swim in the 38 degree heat!!!

Price is actually 35MXN pp and it is obligatory to enter with lifevest which is 15MXN pp if you don't bring one. Andrés lends you vests for free if you stay at Grutas Candelaria.

Lots of birds and teeny fish live in the cenote. Some medium and a few big fish indicate that the water is very clean. Posibility to cave dive because Cenote continues underwater.

There are hundreds of swallows living in this cenote flying all around and in and out in the morning and around dusk – an amazing spectacle!

Awesome cenote and one of our favorites so far. Much better than Hacienda San Antonio. We had a bit of trouble getting here as both Google Maps and Maps.me routed us through a narrow service road, we turned around and went another way, no problems, just slow and bumpy. Very friendly owner and caretaker, $30pp to enter the cenote (each day) and $50pp to camp for the night. We had a quiet night here, tons of bird life, very safe. Bathrooms are clean, cold showers, and 3G Telcel reception. Recommended.

Go in the mornings when sun touches the water. Beautiful cenote with lots of birds. Water was clear with some leaves and a film on top of the water. Had the place to ourselves on a Friday morning. The road is bumpy and the entrance is 3 meters, so be careful where you park.

Nice and great cenote, not a lot of people (we went from alone to 12 persons at the end of friday afternoon).
Calm place to stay for the night. Still 40MX pp. to sleep + 30MX pp. for the cenote. Place with hammocks to chill. Cabañas for 2: 550MX, 4: 750MX

Still $30p/p. Water is clear and you get a little sunlight. Nice cenote, and fun with the rope and jumping platform. The dirt road that leads here from the paved highway is pretty bumpy so expect to go 10kmh.
