What a lovely little spot. The staff are lovely and kind. They build the whole thing them Selves. The only downfall was - the kayaks not having a proper storage area so guests just pile them up on the small narrow dock- and the lounge furniture no longer has covering - just the wooden loungers which are not comfortable nor what they show in their pictures. A small detail.… we were in the first cabin - right on the lagoon - so not connected to the others cabins. Which was lovely. Definitely worth it.

Nice place with a beautiful location. I loved the hammock and the view. The breakfast you order the night before and they get it from a restaurant in the city. It is really good. I missed having a similar option for lunch, as it is fairly secluded with very limited restaurant options close by. It is a bit outside of the city, so it costs 80-100 pesos with a taxi to go the city. It would have been great to have received information beforehand about the lagoon being rocky, so I could have brought swimming shoes. Also, the stairs for going into the water are really slippery. Would be nice if something could be done about that. Overall, a really nice play. I think I might need a hammock at home…

The hotel “accidentally” charged my card for someone else’s stay in the amount of $600.00, still trying to receive my refund. We had to keep asking and messaging for towels and waters. Our room was not cleaned until after 5 p.m. the hotel is not walking distance from the town area. I did not enjoy this stay and will not book here again

Der Mann an der Rezeption war sehr nett, bemüht und hilfsbereit. Frühstück wird von einem Lokal in Bacalar geliefert, man kann sich zwischen ein paar Speisen eine aussuchen und die sind wirklich gut, oder man fährt selbst in das Lokal und isst vor Ort. Der Steg zur Lagune ist super, nachmittags lag kaum jemand dort und wir hatten den Steg für uns allein. Die Unterkunft ist sehr abgeschieden, man braucht auf jeden Fall ein Auto. Die Einfahrt ist katastrophal, sehr viele Steine und Schlaglöcher, man muss gut aufpassen. Das Hotel bewirbt sich als Hotel, aber ich würde es eher als „Glamping“ bezeichnen. Man wohnt in Hütten, unsere hatte direkte Sicht zur Lagune, das war sehr schön. In der Hütte gibt es einen großen Fernseher mit Zugang zu fast allen Streamingdiensten. Sauber waren die Hütten jedoch nicht, unsere Decke war stark verdreckt, die wurde aber sofort nach dem Hinweis ausgetauscht. Das Badezimmer war auch sehr dreckig. Wir waren 3 Nächte dort und unser Zimmer wurde nur nach der 1 Nacht gereinigt. Im Kühlschrank standen sogar noch alte Wasserflaschen von dem Gast davor. Der Boden ist sehr ölig, wir hatten in der Hütte immer nur Badeschuhe an. Es gibt auch leider keine Sitzmöglichkeiten am Balkon, außer eine Hängematte. Also wenn man sich ein Hotel erwartet, wird man enttäuscht sein, für einen Glamping Urlaub sind die Hütten sehr gut!

Petit-déjeuner varié sous forme de panier. Café mis à disposition dans la chambre.

L’hôtel Maria est vraiment parfait. Nous avions la cabine la plus près du lagon et la vue était tout simplement imprenable. La chambre est spacieuse et équipée d’un réfrigérateur ainsi que de deux petits ronds pour cuisiner. Le petit-déjeuner était inclus et délicieux, avec beaucoup de choix de plats typiques du Mexique. Des kayaks sont disponibles gratuitement pour faire de petites sorties sur le lagon le matin ou en soirée, ce qui permet d’admirer les magnifiques levers et couchers de soleil. Le personnel est vraiment très sympathique et accueillant. Le chemin pour accéder à l’hôtel est toutefois un peu cahoteux. Une petite voiture basse pourrait avoir un peu de difficulté à s’y rendre. Mis à part cela, tout est parfait.
