Pros:

De ligging

Cons:

De vriendelijkheid van het personeel en service in t algemeen. We kregen een kamer zonder toiletbril en moesten kiezen tussen geen airco of geen warm water.

Totale rust en een prachtige locatie
Pros:

Het is een heel mooi plekje ver weg van alles. We vonden het fijn om aan het meer te liggen. Onze kinderen hebben veel gebruik gemaakt van de kano’s. De eerste nacht waren er geen andere gasten, dan is het wel heel erg rustig en stil. In het dorpje ervoor aan de stroomversnelling ligt een lekker restaurant waar je goed kunt eten.

Cons:

Er zijn veel muggen en de mensen spreken alleen maar spaans, wat prima gaat maar soms wel even lastig kan zijn.

Als je in de avond wil eten moet je ‘s middags even doorgeven wat je wil hebben. Ze maken alles lekker klaar en dienen het gelijk op als je aan tafel zit.

Pros:

Raňajky boli jednoduché ale chutné. Celý komplex je umiestnený v nádhernej prírode v blízkosti jazera. Je to veľmi tiché miesto, kde si užijete zvuky prírody. Kto požaduje komfort má k dispozícii malý bazén a rôzne lehátka s vankúšmi. Pre dobrodružnejšie povahy sú k dispozícii kajaky, s ktorými môžete objavovať krásne nekomerčné zákutia jazera. Chatka je zariadená vkusne a funkčne. Toto ubytovanie je vhodné pre tých, ktorí chcú zažiť skutočný dotyk s prírodou.

L 5h1t ole….there are much better places to stay, for less.
Pros:

We loved the peaceful location with beautiful lake. Well kept gardens and lots of interaction with nature. When we had water , shower was hot. Kayaks without holes in bottom were good. We were given 2towels for pool. Air-con was good and quiet. The bedside table polished on arrival. Fabulous sunset/sunrise. We had toilet roll!

Cons:

Firstly this is not a hotel. It is one step up from camping. On arrival , Our first hut, sheets were wet. It smelt of rotting wood , bannister on steps broke as I held it as wood so rotten. It had the noisiest floor ever , stained mouldy curtains and was absolutely filthy. Hanging area, no cupboard. Only one very bright light worked. No chance to read when hubby slept. Toilet flushed water all night..then we had no water, so no flush(had 2 go with torch to loo down in garden) no shower on a day we were up early to get booked boat at bacalar. On our return we were given a key, told to move our stuff to another hut. No help to move. No apology. In fact the lady appeared to give impression she was doing us a favour. This hut had dusty lamp hanging over bed that did not work? Broken shower tap to cut your hand on , was as filthy as last, had nails sticking out everywhere and smelt of sewage outside , which did not put the mozzies of. There was only 4 posts to hang clothes. But floor boards were quiet.
Staff were abrupt and in flexible. We were the only guests there, all but one night. One morning we asked for coffee at 8am, it involved boiling a kettle as only Nescafé . They refused. We ate there 1st night. Not only do they not clean they can’t cook, since hubby was served with raw pizza that had taken an hour to make🤷‍♀️only wine , beer and warm water available. So if u want that cocktail by sunset view..forget it.
Free breakfast is limited and not served till 8.30, so we missed out two , as our scheduled trips at Bacalar were almost two hours away.! Reception closes at 7pm unless someone eating. Internet only available outside reception. In 🇬🇧 I would report to trading standards, as nothing like as advertised. NB. We r well travelled around Mexico and I own a log cabin.

Mooie plek, maar niet dicht bij Bacalar.
Pros:

Mooie plek aan het meer met fijne chill ruimtes bij het zwembad, het meer en het restaurantje

Cons:

Het is ver van bacalar. Ik had dat niet goed ingeschat en we zijn na 1 nacht ipv 3 vertrokken. De eigenaar wilde daar niet in mee bewegen.

Heerlijk verblijf met het complex letterlijk voor onszelf alleen.
Pros:

Luxe hutten in prachtig onderhouden terrein met zwembad, hangmatten, ligbedden, loungeruimtes en kano’s inclusief. Airco, heerlijke bedden, goed afgesloten huisjes en luxe badkamers. Het ligt midden in de jungle met de bijbehorende fauna. Wel beperkte menukaart.
