When visiting the maya ruins in the area, we always stay here. Nice rooms, convenient, everything works well. Comfortable, reasonable, & a decent little restaurant right there. We stayed 3 nights this stay. 5-7 nights would be better to explore everything nearby.

Restaurant very good and clean, staff attentive, be aware that the area is relatively remote so the electricity and wifi are not always reliable, especially in the evening.

This hotel is in a good location for visiting Bacalar and it's easy to walk to the center of town. The rooms and facilities are clean, the breakfast is okay and the view from the pool on the roof is beautiful.

A pleasant stay

A clean, quiet room for a very fair price. Helpful staff provided us with an excellent guide to the Calakmul ruins and the bat cave.

This is a jewel in the jungle. Not perfect but really great & we highly recommend. The rooms are clean, safe & secure. There’s a restaurant on site where we ate all our meals. They’ll provide a boxed lunch for days out.

8 is the score. Everything was fine.

It was fine, blasted hot, pool was nice.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

It’s an isolated area near some amazing places, but I’m afraid that the train Maya is going to bring a lot of tourism and change the entire nature of the place, and that the local people will be the last to benefit from this. I think we got there just as the wave was starting to break.

Nice hotel for the star level and price. Incredibly clean (immaculate) in rooms and around hotel, fluffy towels and great sheets. Bed a little hard but that’s Mexico. Great wifi. Hot water. Staff friendly. Neighborhood is a block back from Main Street so no street noise but some roosters and dogs (again normal for Mexico). Restaurant in hotel had lots of options and was good. We liked it and would stay again. Very safe area. A great base for Calakmul trip.

There was a great deal of wood in the rooms. Adjacent to the hotel was a nice restaurant. The room was well refreshed and included AC. The office was great to help with taxis. On site laundry service. The secluded area was pleasant and pretty. There is a serene ruin in walking distance. Caring staff at hotel and restaurant.

We arrived at our room, the beds were not made, we didn't have towels, the staff was notified and they were quick to fix this. In one of the rooms, the TV didn't work. The location is ok to some archeological sites, it is an average stay. We had breakfast the next morning and the options were nice.
