Enjoy a relaxing experience and feel yourself reborn after this ancient mystical experience. Temascal is a steam bath for the soul; it combines a spiritual journey with a pleasant return to the basic elements of nature: earth, water, fire and air.

Xcaret’s temascal is dedicated to the goddess Ix Chel, patron of the region. The ancient Maya called this purifying ceremony zumpulcheé and for them, it is also a healing ritual.

Let the prayers in Maya take you to a different time; feel how the scented mists emanating from the mixture of aromatic herbs and red-hot stones caress your body while purifying your spirit, and experience a rebirth while emerging from the womb of Mother Earth.

After this revival experience through our steam house, you will go to a cool fresh water pool and take a refreshing plunge to level your temperature.
