Perfect boutique hotel and more
My husband and I celebrated our 41st anniversary. Our room with the view was exactly as shown and more. It was perfect! A nice surprise was breakfast on our little patio the next morning. Check in was smooth and very pleasant. We appreciated the help to book our boat tour. Not to be missed. Thank you. We hope to come back!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was suitable for a one-night stay. Perhaps due to the onset of winter, the area was quiet, and restaurant options were limited. However, the bathroom had limited or no water supply for a shower. Additionally, we were unable to have a good breakfast because the owner was out in the morning, and the staff had difficulty communicating, even with the use of a translator. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay.

Repos en face du port de Rio Lagartos
Très bel hôtel. Au bord du port, très pratique pour aller ensuite visiter la réserve naturelle. La chambre est grande, lumineuse et climatisé. Le cadre est très joli avec une belle décoration. La sortie étant a 11h, l'hôtel nous a gardé les sacs car notre visite de la réserve naturelle a finit a 11h30. Le petit déjeuner est bon, je recommande.

The refrigerator didn't work and looked like it hadn't for a number of years. (Roger did let us put things in his kitchen refrigerator.) Water leaked out from under the bathroom floor. Breakfast was a banana, a piece of toast and 4 jars of toppings. Two of the jars, the peanut butter and the nutella were filthy. They looked as though they had been handled by hundreds of people who had never washed their hands and that the jars had never been washed. The setting of the property was right across the street from the water, which was very nice.

A PERFECT place to stay
Wonderful from the start to the end.. Roger is a great host The view is amazing The ocean view side patio is wonderful. The property really makes you feel at home and comfotable. We had a front balcony and perfect for the breakfast that Roger would bring up to us every morning. The views and the breeze were caliming.. waking up to the birds singing. Comfotable to leave doors open throughout the night.

Quaint room in a Beautiful location
We had the room with the lagoon view which is beautiful. This is worth the price itself…. The room, clean and comfortable but tired, but be honest… how much did you pay!!?…. Our host was very friendly and helpful, listen to his restaurant recommendations and take a tour… You may see the raccoon in the mangroves and a crocodile too….. The bird life is amazing. Breakfast was lovely each morning 😋😋😋

The hotel is simple, but it is clean, and has a lovely space on the second floor that is open with picnic tables. We played cards while looking at the lake and the beautiful sunset. Than we turned on the string of lights and played cards while looking at the moon reflected on the water. We walked to a gourmet restaurant for dinner and had a pleasant walk on the boardwalk. The breakfast was a little too light for us, because we expected a greater quantity of fruits and coffee. All in all we loved out trip and will stay there next time we go visit Las Coloradas and Rio Lagartos.

Immediately after we booked, Roger, contacted us through Expedia and advised us that there was no Atm and internet was very spotty as for paying for meals, tours etc, so best to bring cash. We also asked Roger about flamingo tours and he arranged a tour for us with Santiago on a boat Captained by Santiago’s son. Highly recommend Santiago and his son

The sunrises from the balcony and the host, Roger, were highlights. We booked here because we could bring our dog. Roger was very welcoming- he was previously a veterinarian in Merida. He went out of his way to make things nice for us. Room was clean and comfortable.

This hotel was recommended to us by our guide from Yucatan Ecotours and we were very grateful for the tip. This place is immaculate and the service was outstanding from the time we arrived until we left (even though we were late checking out and caused them unnecessary inconvenience). I hope to return one day, the whole experience was relaxing and idyllic!
