    • The road to get to the hotel is a little rough. We were able to drive it fine even in a renal car but just be aware.
    • 9 km from the center
    • The restrooms, my parents restroom smelled horribly it did not have proper ventilation and made it hard for them to avoid the smell.

    I enjoyed the access to the lake and the peaceful environment.

    The restrooms, my parents restroom smelled horribly it did not have proper ventilation and made it hard for them to avoid the smell.

    The room was as advertised, with a little terrasse and a spacious outdoor bathroom. It was private and close to the water. The staff were super sweet and friendly. The facilities on the water were great as well, but the main hut was under construction. I appreciated the free kayaks as well, even though it was too windy to use them during our stay.

    The bedsheets were old and cheap and the mosquito net was not actually functional as it did not close completely. There was an unpleasant odour from the bathroom sink. The lights from the path outside shone through the window slats and wallboards at night which was distracting when trying to sleep. No major complaints, just a few little things to consider.

    Javier was excellent, he tried to do everything in his power to make my stay nice. The compost toilets I thought was great. The bed was comfortable. The facilities on the lake were fabulous. The location was quiet (but then again that can depend on neighbors which is beyond their control so I was lucky).

    The room was dark, I could barely see in the daytime and needed to put on a lamp at all times. Maybe paint the walls a light color to help? The food in the facilities was very mediocre at best. At least they had service because other places don't even have food. I think they could put more attention in all the details and upkeep to make it a more pleasant stay.

    It's a really nice place to have time for yourself, read, relax, do some kayaking. We were considering some boutique places in Bacalar, but it was definitely a good choice to remain outside of Bacalar with direct access to the laguna. The hosts arranged a boat ride for us at very reasonable rates (450/person with departure in Bacalar).

    The road to the property is in pretty bad shape. Nothing an normal car can't cope with but not a pleasant drive. You think twice before you decide to drive to Bacalar in the evening (we didn't drive after sunset). The food is okay, but for the same price you get much better stuff in Bacalar.

    Great waterfront location, friendly and helpful staff, laid-back atmosphere, beautiful environment, within easy reach of Bakalar town

    10SandrinePosted on: 8-23-2023

    The fact it’s right on the lagoon and the fish tacos (the whole menu is actually delicious!), the very friendly service and the laidback atmosphere

    The bumpy road to go in the resort

    2IwonaPosted on: 8-7-2023

    Location is good but better choose next door places

    Safety of this place ( installations cords electticity) is very problematic. The hangmat cord was so poorly maintained that it broke and my son fell. The electric cords are near water. Staff speaks no english (but is friendly). Does this place meet any minimum safery regulations? I d doubt ot

    9FelipePosted on: 1-25-2023

    I was I had known that there was no internet connection in the villas. I’m not complaining as it serves the outdoors in this beautiful location but I would have been better prepared to really detox here and let go.

    9MarisolPosted on: 1-3-2023

    We absolutely loved it here. Originally booked two nights but decided to extend our stay another day. It’s so peaceful and beautiful here. The water is clean and the staff are truly lovely. A little slice of paradise.

    The food in the restaurant is good but simple and the kitchen often runs out of provisions (cheese, beer, etc.) The place is also VERY hard to find from the main road after dark—could do with a lit/reflective/glow in the dark sign so you know you’re going the right way when you arrive. That said, these minor inconveniences were no big deal.

    5EliaPosted on: 11-24-2022

    The location is wonderful! Next to the lagoon, great view.

    There is a huge lack of maintenance all over the place: the bedlinen and towels full of spots and old; the bed net was broken and dirty; the mattress was in a terrible condition. The Kayak was damaged and a potential hazard. The food at the restaurant was very bland.

    9RoismanPosted on: 11-18-2022

    Location is great. Beautiful place, awesome view and landscape. Employees are kind.I asked to stay in a room closer to lagoon and staff made it possible. Thanks!

    It wasn't hot water. No problem for me but my wife.

    The restaurant was so simple for the style of the hotel. Good food but without a chef touch.

    1DavidPosted on: 7-27-2022

    we didn’t even stay there, the staff offered a room in the center, and we decided to stay there.

    no A/C, mosquitoes everywhere, maintenance urgent in almost every part of the hotel, hard to get there due to the bad roads in construction, super expensive for what they really give you; for the same amount of money, you can stay at a luxurious hotel or bungalow.

    Nice people, good atmosphere and perfect location.On top, very good food.Not crowded and people are relaxed.

    10LilianaPosted on: 3-26-2022

    The staff is simply the best! Hardworking, polite, friendly and so kind!!! This is the quiet side of the lagoon which we just loved being secluded. Early morning kayaking and chilling by the hammocks was just perfect. Food is simple but tasty! Thank you for a relaxing and perfect stay!!

    All fine, this is more for future guests, as you are in the jungle, of course bring mosquito repellent.

    9ŁukaszPosted on: 3-19-2022

    Verry cool and clean bungalows.Directly on lake with access to free kayaks.Very good food ? Personal helpful and friendly.

    Bad road to accommodation.Poor internet. It's working only in restaurant .

    9NicolaPosted on: 3-4-2022

    we spent 2 nights here and it was so charming to sleep in the wooden bungalow (or cabana in Spanish). Mosquito screens on the bed and on the windows but of course there are narrow spaces from where bugs can get in but that’s the wild part of the story. it’s beautiful to have a shower in open air as the bathroom is privately closed with a round wall but without a portion of roof so you can smell, watch and feel the jungle all around you. the whole place is a few steps away from the lagoon where you can enjoy wonderful swims with the advantage of using kayaks for free.

    the “perseverancia” is the bumby road that gets you there and it’s a bit of a pain but is also clearly under construction, I believe they are trying to make it more comfortable to drive. we had only one bad experience for the breakfast when we specifically told we don’t eat meet and when we asked scrambled eggs with cheese they brought it with ham.. we kindly asked to remake them without ham but they just removed it, final result we noticed ham in the cold eggs and we didn’t finish breakfast anymore.
