The entire property needs repairs, renovations, etc.The bridge planks are broken in some places and nail heads are sticking out. It is dangerous to walk barefoot.
But breakfast was good fresh made eggs, omelette.

The photos they show are very altered, the conditions of the hotel are bad, the staff has no training to make you feel welcome, the breakfast is very poor, as well as the service is terrible... you never feel so welcome, we chose to leave early and lose a night. The pool is terrible... what a shame not to feel good and welcome.

Wonderful location right in the lagoon
The room was big and comfortable
The only thing I didnt love was the breakfast which was very basic and underwhelming

location and private pier with swing I liked
I didn't like the smell of the restroom, price point for condition of the home, not so friendly staff

Access was tough. The entry way was through what seemes to bw the back. With no signage no directions. The room was modest but less than what i expected and paid for. It was off to the side of the main building. The "hotel" was more of a private home where rooms were rented as hotels rooms.

The property was beautiful and the lake front pier was unique.
The only inconvenience was the parking was a little tight but we still managed to find space and park.

Beautiful property right in front of the Lagoon and 6 blocks away from the main street at Bacalar all the staff and the manager were really nice and helpful. Breakfast is included and it was delicious. My friends and I had an amazing time I'd wish I stayed more days but definitely I'll come back.

The place is beautiful and the hotel is just like in the pictures. It's a very peaceful place with an incredible environment. Additionally, in the center, there are very good restaurants and games for the kids in the square. The only thing I would improve is the breakfast. There were only eggs (scrambled or omelet) and coffee. I would add some toast, butter, cereals, yogurt, etc.
