Cocoyoc traces its roots to the eleventh century when the Tlahulcas - a Nahuatl group settled in the area. This peaceful setting was conquered by the Aztecs in the fifteenth century shortly before the Spanish Conquest of Tenochtitlan.
Today's Cocoyoc is centered around the Hacienda Cocoyoc which houses a full service hotel with a spa, golf course and meeting facilities in a charming colonial setting.
