The staff was very nice and accommodating. However the property was not clean- we couldn’t use the pool. Our second room wasn’t stocked with drinks- we had to ask for blankets as the beds only had a very thin silk linen.

New construction hotel so it feels modern and clean. AC unit in room is so nice to escape from the tropical heat of the day. Pool is refreshing, though on the smaller side. Great location to walk to various places throughout Bacalar. Highly recommended to rent a bike to get around much faster.

From the outside and area, we were a bit turned off. HOWEVER, once you enter the gates of the property- it’s beautiful and the rooms are GREAT. The area ended up being great and close to many places to eat and access to the lagoon. Would stay again.

We stayed one night and it served its purpose. The room was clean. The beds are firm and there isn’t much of a blanket; it’s just a light duvet. However, because the area is usually very warm, it was really all you needed. It also has a/c to help regulate the room temperature. The front desk was quite informative and accommodating.

Fue una grata experiencia

Las habitaciones son bonitas y espaciosas, con un aroma agradable y buena decoración. El tema del estacionamiento no fue inconveniente en temporada baja. Volvería a hospedarme con ellos.

El hotel siempre esta impecable. Daniel y todo el staff son siempre muy amables y te ayudan en todo. Por mucho el mejor hotel costo beneficio. La zona no es las mejor, estéticamente hablando, pero definitivamente la mas céntrica, todo te queda cerca. Lastima que no tenia mas noches disponibles si no me hubiera quedado mas tiempo.
