Founded as Pueblo de Dolores in August 17, 1850, Isla Mujeres Mexico, was named by Spanish Conqueror Francisco Hernandez de Cordoba on 1517 after finding several female figures close to a small archeological site which was a temple dedicated to Ixchel, Goddess of love, fertility and the moon. For approximately the next 300 years, it was a pirate refugee. Another Spaniard, Fermin de Mundaca was the most famous (1858) who built the majestic Hacienda in the heart of the island. Isla Mujeres Cancun was abandoned through the following decades and left a few fishermen and their families. All together, they founded a picturesque village which has been transforming into one of the top kept secrets in the Mexican Caribbean.
