Overall, this was one of our favourite places to stay in Mexico. It's a very charming place right next to the water, giving it a bit of a glamping feel. We only stayed for one night as it was more of a stopover for us, but if we had stayed longer, we definitely would have enjoyed the kayaking, biking, and the tours that can be booked through the hotel reception. It's also a great place to practise your Spanish. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Rooms were super cute. Swim area was rocky and not nice as other areas of the lagoon. Limited beach chairs. Breakfast very limited and requires creative efforts. We made honey and banana toast.

Such a cute hotel, less than 20 rooms and the grounds were beautiful and maintained. The room was great, A/C worked great and you can’t beat being right on the lagoon. Staff was friendly. They arranged to have our laundry picked up and delivered the following day. By the way it was only about $7 for 25 items! Breakfast was very very limited, but there was a restaurant next door if you wanted something more substantial. They have bikes, kayaks and the water was beautiful. We would stay there again.

Great ambience and beautiful location on the water

We had a wonderful stay for three nights. The ambience was stunning. Location perfect with a great restaurant across the road. Staff were kind and helpful. Easy and fast check in. Great loungers at the water’s edge. The property is beautiful and well taken care of. Great pride shown in this amazing gem. I hope to be back. ❤️❤️

It was ok - exactly as posted, however the hot water in the shower lasted less than 10 minutes regardless of the time of day. Lots of water pressure and the mattress was very good to sleep on. Pictures made room and bathroom appear much larger than they actually were.

Needs updating

The entire property needs repairs, renovations, etc.The bridge planks are broken in some places and nail heads are sticking out. It is dangerous to walk barefoot. But breakfast was good fresh made eggs, omelette.
