Hotel Carolina

Lovely Hotel

Reviewed By TARAGERVAISE

After reading other reviews about subpar food, I must say we could not disagree more. The food was excellent. We ordered the ceviche every day. Beautiful resort, tentative staff, clean rooms. Booked a private sail tour of the Lagoon through front desk. Super easy and they pick you up right at the dock. Loved our stay.

Brand new with 8 large suites of subtle luxury, uncluttered and unpretentious with quality fabrics and natural materials. Our Palapa Bar is the perfect setting to unwind upon arrival, try a tropical cocktail, relax on your balcony or veranda overlooking the pool and lounge areas. Later have a delicious dinner in our restaurant. And don't forget to schedule a massage or tour.

Nicest hotel in Bacalar

Reviewed By Boris B

We spent 4 nights at the Blue Palm Bacalar hotel and loved every minute of it. This hotel turned out to be even nicer than we expected, with a lovely exterior, nice rooms, great service and good breakfast. As said in other reviews, the owner spends a remarkable amount of time with all of his clients to provide them with the information they need. He's a goldmine of information on the Bacalar area and we benefited greatly from his recommendations.

Moldy and dirty.

Reviewed By 226janz

We were supposed to stay 3 nights in the hotel. At the first night, we noticed a strong moldy smell and after some looking around the room found, that the whole room was covered in black mold. We went to the receptionist who admitted, that they are having mold issues in the hotel and said, that there is no other room available. We spent the night in the room. The next morning we again contacted the front desk and, that we will leave, because the room is a health hazard. We had some questions regarding the refund for the two nights we paid but were not planning to stay, which they politely said would be no problem, just that we need to sort that via booking. We went on with our vacation, contacted booking regarding the issue and the agent said that they see no problem with the refund, they are just waiting for the hotel to get back to them. At that point they started avoiding the refund situation with excusses like: we do not have the manager here right now, I can not make a decision regarding that and so on. Well 16 days have passed and the hotel does not respond, neither to me, nor booking. They are completley ignoring everything regarding the refund. They are completley ignorant and totaly unprofessional. Still waiting for their respose..... Also, I would like to add, that besides the black mold, you do not want to look under the beds, because there was three years worth of spider webs and dust mixed with trash. The bathroom was not clean, at our arrival the shower was full of black hair. The dining area is in the middle of the hotel and all the rooms are facing in that direction. You can forget about sleeping late, because the breakfast will wake you up at 8:00 am.

Villa Marilu B & B

Absolutely amazing!!

Reviewed By Said A

I actually never do any reviews! But my sister and I were so intrigued by the hospitality and service of this amazing paradise that I /HAD/ to write this review. Eduardo and all people are so amazing, there where any hotel or b&b is so focussed on service, these guys take it all a step further. They really go beyond to make you have the best time ever and I highly recommend everyone to go to this beautiful place by the lake during their stay in Bacalar!!! Unfortunately we only booked this accomedation for 1,5 days. During our trip in Mexico we’ve stayed in many hotels and places, but nothing beats this when it comes to the “home coming” feeling! Lots of love!! Said and Nazly

Hotel Makaaba

With a privileged location and inspired by the beautiful lagoon of the seven colors and the fort of San Felipe, Makaaba brings together the best of the destination in a relaxed atmosphere, in the heart of Bacalar. Declared as “Magic Town” in the Grand Costa Maya, Bacalar is mainly dedicated to adventure tourism and nature exploration in the surroundings of the Magic Town of San Felipe de Bacalar.

Lots of good bits negated by tiny room and penny pinching.

Reviewed By Snickers64

The positives: lovely large pool and design. Tasty breakfasts (but see below). Great public spaces (which you will use). Relatively spacious bathroom. Price acceptable. However realise that you will have not one extra inch to move in the room, and will have to climb steep stairs to the bed, which will require one of a couple to clamber over the other to get in or out of the small loft space. If you are fine with that, or a solo traveller, then this could be a good option. Also, filter coffee refills at breakfast in small coffee cups charged for each after the first, and if you want milk with your coffee, that will be an extra 10 pesos for that thimble of milk. Seriously, a lot of good will lost in a matter of seconds. Shame, as that pool and the loungers are wonderful….

really happy with our week-long family get-together and wedding!

Reviewed By ccyrusa

I don't have enough good things to say about our stay at Casa Shiva. The friendliness, flexibility, and warmth of the staff, and the location and layout of the docks and the rooms on the property made for a really amazing time. They allowed us to hire external providers and did not try to predatorily charge us as soon as we mentioned "wedding" like so many other venues do. They resolved our requests in an honest, friendly, and accommodating manner. I also appreciated that the staff were available for you but were never actively trying to sell us "extras" or interrupting our daily activities. The price is also very reasonable compared to other locations and what is on offer. My suggestions for improvement would be somehow getting a stronger and more reliable internet connection (it was serviceable and I suspect this is rather a regional issue rather than hotel-specific) and some wood on the dock will probably need to be replaced in the next 5 years. Of course, this didn't detract from our experience, thanks again so much for helping make our wedding and family get-together an unforgettable experience.

Very good and well situated hotel.

Reviewed By keithandhelen3

Situated very close to the swimming lagoons in Bacalar. This hotel is also withing walking distance of the major sites and city center. The hotel is well priced and is quite new. It has a good swimming pool with comfortable furniture around it. The rooms were very clean and air conditioned. It was a worry couple of days that we stayed.

La Albarina

Bacalar is a must visit!

Reviewed By mkbalch02

La Albarina was a very cute space. It was clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. They do not have very many people working and they close the food/bar at 4pm. They are otherwise extremely helpful and there whenever you need help to call a taxi/carry luggage/etc. La Albarina definitely has one of the best locations on the whole lake and a very nice space to relax and swim. Boats can pick you up at the dock and it is a very cheap and speedy taxi ride to town. Overall such a breathtaking place- I absolutely loved Bacalar and will be returning!

Old hotel and not clean at all! Would never come back

Reviewed By cindydH8820SY

Our stay was unforgettable but not because it was a good stay, but because it was so not taken care of that it gave you the impression that its old and not clean at all! We even had cockroaches in the bathroom! I would honestly never stay here again I didn't even want to get in bed. I have stayed in other places in Bacalar for even cheaper prices and way much better.
