The room is old and dirty. Nothing to eat/drink, scary area. We didn’t sleep ALL night as there was a party right outside our window and the property did nothing about it. Party was until 7am!!!!! Don’t dare going there it’s not for normal people

Tierra Maya Hotel - gorgeous decor and garden pool
Beautiful pool and gardens, gorgeous rooms with stunning white wash floors and concrete glaze flooring. Lovely room decor. Netflix. Extra bed in room for our family of 5 (2 adults & 3 children under 10). Also, amazing location to walk into town too! 5 minutes from the main plaza. it is next to a fabulous breakfast place (2 mins walk) - Ixchel Bacalar Downside - Coffee machine in room but no pods and poor WiFi connectivity.

This is a nice hotel 2 blocks from the lake and Center. The garden and pool are serene. Breakfast was at a nearby restaurant where the options where plentiful and their coffee was excellent. Wifi was good.

Beware of nice room pictures...
One of the new boutique hotels in the center of Bacalar. Good location 2 blocks from the Laguna and nice restaurants like the Playita, also 5 mn from the main city square However, the nice room pictures tend to give a false impression. The hotels is just a few rooms along a corridor, around a garden. The rooms themselves are nice and the pictures are accurate, so not misleading, but overall the hotel is nowhere near a luxury boutique hotel with spa. The rooms are directly on the street, so you get to hear cars passing by, so no Sanctuary here I paid around 100 USD for one night, for this price there are other places in Bacalar which are better value for money, especially if they have direct access to the laguna Also beware Google Maps indicates the hotel as being on Calle 16, whereas it is located on Calle 26

Bueno pero con cosas a mejorar.
Hotel limpio, muy bien localizado. La habitación podría ser muy bonita pero puedes notar que no fueron cuidadosos con los detalles. (Ejemplo de manchas de pintura en el baño) La otra cosa que no me parece a orden al precio es que se llame SPA pero no tiene nada que ver con SPA, con lo cual resulta engañoso y que sientas que has pagado demasiado por la estancia.

Hôtel calme et proche du centre-ville
Nous étions à 5 dans une très grande chambre avec salle de bain. Elle était assez spacieuse pour ne pas se marcher dessus. La literie est confortable et le personnel serviable. L’hôtel est à 5mn à pied du centre-ville de Bacalar. Une bonne adresse que je recommande.

El hotel e instalaciones bien, pero el personal super groseros, preguntas algo y no te contestan o atienden de mañana manera, no lo recomiendo, aparte en mi reservación aparecía como departamentos y fue una sola habitación para 6 perdonado y te cobran al llegar una cuota que no recuerdo para que era pero teníamos que realizarla.
