Gorgeous hotel right on the lagoon. The staff were attentive and friendly. We enjoyed our stay. Only thing I would mention is they should have bikes to rent. We had to spend money on taxis every time we wanted to go to centro Bacalar. But other than that the stay was perfecto!

This property and the service that we received were magnificent. The staff were glorious and attentive, with great amenities available. The spa only had one therapist so we had to stagger appointments, but not a big deal. We had some pool side snacks and ordered dinner from room service one night. The food & cocktails were spectacular. Very convenient to town, but also has everything you need. A few other resorts & restaurants are within walking distance as well. Property is new and clean. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Rooms were spacious & well designed, including rainfall shower, extra counter space, large balcony, great air con & hot water.

Had an amazing experience at Hotel Cristalino. The service was top-notch and everyone was very friendly and accommodating. The room was a great size and I had the option of choosing which scent I preferred for the soaps and lotions provided. The lagoon was absolutely breathtaking and you are able to borrow kayaks or paddle boards from the front desk to explore it.

Las vistas son increibles y la ubicación privilegiada, a un lado del cenote esmeralda. Hacen un grupo de whatsapp a tu llegada y siempre están atentos a todo lo que necesitas, la atención es realmente extraordinaria y perdonalizada. Te dan a escoger entre 3 aromas para el set de jabones, shampoo y acondicionador. Por lo general hay toallas en cada camastro a tu disposición. Cuando te levantas en la noche hay luz tenue automática en lavabo y baño. Además de la limpieza normal de la habitación, por la tarde, si destendiste la cama, ellos la vuelven a tender y te preparan la cama para dormir con unos pequeños detalles. Hay kayak de 1 y 2 plazas, paddle board, incluidos con tu estancia. Los jardines están impecables. Las 2 albercas son climatizadas y están en muy buenas condiciones. Las camas, ropa de cama y las almohadas son muy comodas. Mucho personal en el hotel, hay personal por todos lados, siempre hay alguien dispuesto a auydarte. Solo son 20 habitaciones, lo cual lo hace muy tranquilo y sin ruido, ya que es solo adultos. Estuvimos 5 días y 4 noches los alimentos en el restaurante son muy buenos y el servicio es excelente, los precios son acordes a Bacalar y al hotel.

Buen hotel , mal servicio .
El hotel es maravilloso , la comida es mala por ser amable , los precios son normales para una estancia en un hotel de este tipo ( comida , bebidas ) , muy cómodo , lo único no tan agradable es el servicio , llegue 1:30 y se que el check in es hasta las 3, me ofrecen pagar 2 mil pesos para entrar antes , cosa que me negué pero vi que los cuartos estaban listos y el hotel a menos del 50% de su capacidad , después al salir quise pagar mis consumos y al pagar 420 pesos con un billete de 1000 me piden dejarlo así ya que no tiene cambio con cara de risa , me negué y fue tardado , entiendo pero es un hotel donde la gente paga consumos , deben estar más listos , muy poco personal en el hotel , no es que esté mal pero para pedir un kayac o lo que sea tienes que ir a recepción todo el tiempo .
