"The property is the same as in the photos, but when it was new. It needs maintenance inside, in the rooms and bathroom. It is located very close to a main street, so you can hear all the noise from cars, people passing by, and during shift changes, you can hear the good atmosphere that the staff has."

"The Royal Palm was amazing and my family and I cannot wait to return. Amari was so helpful and so easy to contact via WhatsApp. Upon arrival she offered me a cold beer and created us with the cutest resident puppy named Mila. Check in was easy and check out was even better. Our room was clean and comfortable with sky tv and internet access. Bathroom was in great conditions. The best part is having the room right on the lagoon, it’s beautiful and clean. My daughter and I swam daily and watched...

"This house was booked last minute for an improptu women's holiday because it was available and allowed a pet. The view of the lake is beautiful, but you can't get in and out to swim here. Many things were in disrepair like doors, windows, and screens. Linens, towels, water, toilet paper was not ready for us and had to be asked for and was stained and worn.

Hotel Rancho Encantado

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place"

La Galuna Bacalar

10/10 Excellent

"Great property, most of the staff were super kind and helpful and the breakfasts were amazing! The only thing that bothered me were the guests at 7am in the pool screaming and wilding out and then again until 10:30pm when we were told that noisy times were between 9am -9pm. My husband is Mexican, I speak Spanish very well and the ladies at breakfast weren’t nice to me and making remarks thinking I didn’t understand the first morning so I sent my husband for the next days. Overall it’s a great space, great location and we had a private space with a jacuzzi that made the experience even better. "

Cristalino Lagoon Front Hotel Restaurant & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"What wonderful and pleasant location. Directly on the Lagoon and right next to Cenote Esmeralda. Restaurant serves excellent food and tasty drinks. Our room was wonderful. It was cleaned daily and turn down service was included. The staff greets you with genuine hospitality and are extremely helpful. The Centro (town) is only 1.6 miles away. "
