Great people, location and amenities!
The service was very good and the people there were kind, appreciative for our visit and very helpful to us. To pool is very cute and while we did not use it, the people that did seemed to enjoy it. The location is ideal... just a couple blocks away from the main square - close to walk, far enough that you didn't hear all of the noise. Lots of restaurants and bars very close, making it a fun time for us. The only problem was that the bed is very hard and uncomfortable - even getting a mattress topper for extra padding would have made this much more enjoyable. Otherwise, good prices, great service and a wonderful trip.

This was an absolutely stunning little boutique hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Tons to do in walking distance but I did drive. There is parking at the hotel but it’s a little tight so I just parked on the street. I didn’t know ahead of time that the hotel also had a private lagoon club. You can order food and drinks there that they will send down from the restaurant. This was definitely helpful when all of the other lagoon clubs were super packed on the weekends.

I liked the location of this hotel. It’s in a quiet area, but only three blocks to the center square. They have a beach club with kayaks included and an on site restaurant. The only thing I didn’t like were the rock hard beds. It made getting a good night sleep very difficult.

The hotel staff and restaurant were great. Pool looked nice, however we never used it. Beds were comfortable. Shower was hot. AC cold. We booked this property specifically because it had laundry listed in the property description. Be advised, that’s a lie. No laundry. I’ve been traveling a month already and was really needing it. My only disappointment but it was a big one due to my situation.

Cute little hotel in Bacalar, very attentive staff and great location. I read that there was no front desk or a concierge at night, but there was, always at least 1 person working the night shift. Just a heads up, you may experience low water pressure, just have a little patience, someone will go on and check their reserve, its not going to be high but you will get water eventually. i would definitely stay here again!
