Tierra Maya Hotel - gorgeous decor and garden pool

Beautiful pool and gardens, gorgeous rooms with stunning white wash floors and concrete glaze flooring. Lovely room decor. Netflix. Extra bed in room for our family of 5 (2 adults & 3 children under 10). Also, amazing location to walk into town too! 5 minutes from the main plaza. it is next to a fabulous breakfast place (2 mins walk) - Ixchel Bacalar Downside - Coffee machine in room but no pods and poor WiFi connectivity.

Beware of nice room pictures...

One of the new boutique hotels in the center of Bacalar. Good location 2 blocks from the Laguna and nice restaurants like the Playita, also 5 mn from the main city square However, the nice room pictures tend to give a false impression. The hotels is just a few rooms along a corridor, around a garden. The rooms themselves are nice and the pictures are accurate, so not misleading, but overall the hotel is nowhere near a luxury boutique hotel with spa. The rooms are directly on the street, so you get to hear cars passing by, so no Sanctuary here I paid around 100 USD for one night, for this price there are other places in Bacalar which are better value for money, especially if they have direct access to the laguna Also beware Google Maps indicates the hotel as being on Calle 16, whereas it is located on Calle 26

Dårlig balance mellem pris og kvalitet

Wifi var meget svagt. Ofte var det nødvendigt at gå ud på gangen for at få forbindelse. Personalet kunne ikke tale engelsk og var ikke servicemindede. Værelserne ligger lige ud til en ret trafikeret vej, hvilket giver en del støj. Poolen var ikke indbydende. Stedets “bar” var lukket. Stedet kaldes for “sanctuary”. Dette giver ingen mening, der er ikke roligt og afslappende. Der var strømafbrydelse i mere end et døgn. Vi var nødt til at forlade hotellet da der ikke var udsigt til at strømmen kom igen. Personalet var ikke samarbejdsvillige i forhold til at hjælpe os med at kontakte Hotels.com for at få refusion for den overnatning vi ikke kunne have grundet strømafbrydelsen. I forhold til de priser vi ellers har mødt på Yucatan var dette sted prismæssigt i den høje ende. Ikke en rimelig pris i forhold til hvad vi fik - placering/hotellets stand/service mm. Stedet kan ikke anbefales.
