Categories

Cleanliness
7
Mixed: several guests praised 'instalaciones muy limpias' and general cleanliness, but multiple reports of ants/bugs and insect bites in rooms and common areas lowered this score.
Service
9.2
Generally very positive: staff described as 'excellent', 'nice' and helpful with tours; one review noted staff needing better training and occasional unfriendliness, but overall service was consistently praised.
Location
9.8
Outstanding: repeatedly noted as right by/inside Tikal park, walking distance to ruins, hugely valued by guests (e.g., 'directly at the park entrance', '10 min walking to the archaeological zone').
Room Quality
6.5
Below average for comfort: many mentions of no AC or only fans (rooms very hot), basic or small rooms, sagging mattresses, lack of furniture in some bungalows and shared bathrooms for lower-tier units.
Amenities
8.5
Good: pool, hammocks/cabana, hot showers, game room and organized tours are positives; limited in-room WiFi and lack of AC in many rooms reduce the score slightly.
Value for Money
7
Mixed/leaning down: several guests called the property or restaurant 'overpriced' for the basic rooms and tourist-priced restaurant items, lowering perceived value.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Positive: restaurant food described as 'very good' and 'delicious' by multiple guests, though several noted prices were high for the area.
Overall Experience
10
Very positive overall: despite room and bug/heat issues, guests repeatedly highlight the unique jungle setting, proximity to Tikal, privacy and staff friendliness that make the stay memorable.

Beautiful paradise in the Tikal jungle
Pros:

It’s the closest property to the park literally at the doorstep so you can really enjoy the serenity. The pool is nice when you want to relax during the hours part of the day between your excursions. The restaurant and lobby has a great ambiance and food is delicious. Despite being in the jungle you have all the commodities and the place is amazingly beautiful. I already recommend my friends to go and everyone has loved it as much as we did

Cons:

None

Amazing place!
Pros:

Location, food, dessert, prices, feeling to it. It was just an amazing stay!

Cons:

There’s not wi fi or signal in the rooms, but is part of the experience in disconnecting from it. Also even tho is inside the park and Tikal is right there you still have to walk over 40 min to see the ruins

Pros:

Un lugar increíble en medio de la selva.

Cons:

Reservamos ahí porque nos dijeron que las habitaciones esas tenían aire acondicionado, pero en realidad no tenían. No lo necesitamos pero no me gustó que me mintieran. La propinan los muchos nos la cobraron siempre y siempre el 10% hasta que nos dimos cuenta, dado que había cosas que cobraban propina que ni siquiera se prestaba un servicio.

Hotel ubicado en pleno Parque de Tikal dentro de la selva. Hotel comodo, limpio y con servicios adecuados.
Pros:

Hotel ubicado en pleno Parque de Tikal dentro de la selva.
Hotel cómodo, limpio y con servicios adecuados.
Facilidad para usar los tours y el transporte.

Cons:

Comida costosa y de una calidad no esperada para dichos precios.
Baños y duchas compartidas que si bien estaban limpios es algo que no nos ha acomodado.

Top locatie.
Pros:

De locatie is perfect. Het ligt direct naast de ingang, maar het is van zichzelf ook al een jungle. Je hebt echt het gevoel dat je al in de jungle bent. We hebben vanuit het resort een toekan, apen, agouti en andere vogels gezien.

Cons:

De bedden zijn hard en er is geen airco.

Perfect location to explore the pyramids. Super comfortable amd access to anything you may need. Honestly impressive sit
Pros:

Perfect location for exploring the pyramids. Everything you need to be comfortable! AC would have been amazing but that’s out of their control. Can’t expect AC in the jungle. Lol. Food was good and there’s plenty of comfy spots to get wifi in the common areas. They gave us an extra fan at night which helped us sleep comfortably.

Pros:

Immaculately clean. An oasis in the middle of the jungle. Food was Michelin Star worthy. Exotic and romantic
