Before travelling I did a little research on cenotes to chose which ones I'd like to visit, and this one didn't make the list because it looked too touristy and modified. But we ended up going on a tour to Chichen Itza that included a visit to Ik Kil, so ok, let's see... It turns out we really enjoyed our quick visit to this cenote! It is very touristy and modified indeed, and it was crowded, but it was pretty cool to swim in a huge cenote! My husband had a great time jumping from the platform.

They have lockers and life vests to rent, and the prices are good compating to other tourist attractions. If you don't want to spend 10 pesos on a life vest, you can try and hold on to the ropes that cross the cenote (they're there exactly for that).
