A fantastic, authentic place to stay in Bacalar. We loved the place, the beautiful view, the great food and the incredibly friendly service. Therese is a lot of activities arranged day and night at the place. Please note that you can book boat tours on the lagoon directly from the property, so there’s no need to book in advance. Also note its is from 18 years.

Habitación básica, para ir a descansar, si no priorizas el descanso y tranquilidad, te pareserá muy rústica ya que no tiene TV u otros distractores

Cuando quisimos bañarnos, no había agua caliente, tuvimos que bajar y nos dijeron que no había nadie de mantenimiento. Solo nos pusieron una toalla y tuvimos que bajar a pedir otra. Nos tocó una noche de fiesta, sin embargo el sonido se escuchaba muy muy fuerte desde la habitación.

Estuve en una habitación privada. Fueron noches lluviosas y vaya sorpresa cuando las gotas caían en mi cara mientras dormía. Cabe aclarar que el lugar no tiene gimnasio ni spa aunque así se menciona. Fuera de ello, el personal es muy atento, el lugar tiene aspecto lindo y está bien ubicado

Por el precio que te ofrecen es una excelente opción para estar cerca del centro y frente a la laguna, hay actividades del hostal que te permiten pasarla bien cada día, lo recomiendo plenamente, solo recuerda que es un hostal y que es importante que no te confíes y cuides tus cosas ya que si llego a pasar que tomaron mis pertenencias.
