On the outskirts of an ancient Mayan Village and surrounded by jungle, Casa De Piedra Solferino offers plenty of space and tranquility for you to recenter and connect with nature. A collaboration of international designers and local craftsmen/artisans allowed Casa de Piedra to become a unique space it is today. Adhering to ancient art of Mayan stone masonry that dates back to pre-Columbian era it took over a year to create space mindfully. We stove to respect local styles and techniques, while also adding our own contemporary sensibility to the creation of La Casa. Utilizing reclaimed and sustainably sourced materials from the reason, La Casa thus features minimalistic interiors that are also reflective of local building traditions. As a result, the house is abundant in natural materials such as repurposed Vista Maya stone, exposed wood beams, polished concrete walls, floors with embedded riverstone and grass (zacate) roofs.
