It was an unloved location and I was really disappointed because I thought I had book a nice hotel room in the midst of a long trip I treated myself. Very strange place.

Flamingos inn is located in the chuburna pueblo, the entrances to the residential area is not iluminated front m the man road, you better arrive before sunset to avoid missing. The beach on the area is very small and block by each residence. Overall place is 3

This is my 3rd stay at this property in 3 years, mostly because it has become my absolute favorite place to relax & get away. They have made some upgrades with their internet since my prior stays. I was able to work remotely & stream tv services without any problems at all. The view of the beach is breathtaking, & the rooms all have a personal touch that makes you feel right at home. The bed is extremely comfortable, & you have basic essentials supplied in the kitchen, including water, coffee, cookware, a small gas stove, & toaster oven. The family that owns the place is so very kind. I will continue to visit this place at least once yearly for as long as I can! It’s truly my own private paradise, & I’m glad I happened upon it! ☺️

We spent 14 glorious days here! If you’re looking for a place off the beaten track you’ll love Flamingos Inn. We felt like the place was our own retreat away from the hustle and bustle of more touristy spots. Victor, Alva and Rebecca catered to our every need. The views of the gulf we had were unparalleled. We hope to return to this oasis in the future!!

The downstairs room needs updating. It has rusty faucets and a terrible kitchen area. There is no closet or even a bench to put your suitcase. Management is difficult to get a hold of. Just to let you know, staff does not speak English. The views are beautiful.

This is my second time staying at this property, & I think I love it more this time than I did last. This place is paradise. Everything about it is wonderful, & the family that owns it & lives on property are just great. Ignore any bad reviews you see. I can promise you those are just people with impossible expectations. Only hiccup was the Wi-Fi, but with a view like the one you get, who really needs Wi-Fi? It works, but it’s not incredibly fast, so if you are planning to work remotely, be prepared to use a hotspot. I did work remotely some while staying, & that worked fine for me. Again, I can say as I did in my original review that I slept better there than I have anywhere. They’ll get used to seeing me around. I’ll be back many more times. :)

Flamingos Inn overlooks the Gulf of Mexico and the sound of the waves is wonderful! The room is spacious and flamingo-theme decorated. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchenette well-supplied with two-burner gas cooktop, microwave, kettle, coffee maker and fridge. Dishes, assorted cups and glasses, flatware, pots and pans, and cooking utensils are provided. Breakfast is served each morning. The family hosting is delightful and very responsive. We stayed 10 days and each was perfect!

This property says Progreso and it is definitely not in Progreso. Its in the small town of Chuburna where it feels like there is not another living soul around. You definitely need a car or taxi to get out & feel like your amongst the living. The wifi is terrible, went about a week without it. It's a nice place and the people that own it are very friendly but suitable only if you want complete solitude. The private beach is dirty so you won't be spending anytime there. Unfortunately its also non refundable once you've paid and clearly the owner isn't willing to refund any money for lack of wifi or evening leaving early.

Hi Walter, The municipality is Progreso, that's part of our address, whether or not you think it should be. We do advise guests that a car is best if you want to fully enjoy the village of Chuburna and its surroundings, just as we advised you several times. As to wifi, yes this is not New York City and the max speeds around here are generally 10-50 mbps, which is more than fast enough for every other one of our clients in the past 3 years, but obviously not you. Our apologies but that is outside of our control, but if you had researched where the hotel was before booking you may have been better prepared for the serenity here. The beach is definitely not dirty, and interestingly you never mentioned that particular problem during your stay... Finally, your reservation was only non-refundable as that was the payment option YOU chose when booking. Again, nothing we can do about that, you made the booking with expedia. We are very sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay with us as much as we had hoped, and we wish you all the best for the future.

Flamingos Inn was right on the beach with your own private place. You must have a car, though, as there is no public transport and you are too far from any stores. The staff were over the top Helpful, friendly, and courteous. Sweetest people in the Yucatán.

Clean, extra quite during pandemic, loved the breakfast that is custom made like a bed and breakfast. We rented the Cielo unit and the view was perfect. There was no need for curtains in the sliding glass doors leading to the balcony because the ocean is right there. Enjoyed the safe area. This is not the Hyatt hotel but it is cute and for the price we thought it was incredible and would only stay here when visiting again. The people here where humble and just the best. It was better than expected.

Let me start by saying I have traveled the world rather widely, & I honestly think this is my absolute most favorite place I’ve ever stayed! The owners live on site & are wonderful. Lucy met me outside when I arrived & walked me to my room & suggested many local eateries. She was extremely sweet & helpful through my stay. The attention to detail put into the rooms is phenomenal. It is just as comfortable as home. And the view is absolutely stunning! The pictures on Expedia don’t do it justice AT ALL! I wish I could upload all the Insta worthy shots I took of this place. You will have everything you need here, including a very comfortable bed. I think I slept better here than I ever have in my life. The location is not in the touristy area of Progreso; that is about 20 minutes away. WiFi worked great, & I was able to work some while visiting. Your beach is a private beach, only accessible by the residents, which I rather enjoyed, & the property is extremely secure. I could go on & on, but I will just say that I definitely plan to make it back in the near future. Everything about it was perfect!
