Close to bus station. Roger is very kind and helpful. If you go for tours wait to talk to him before booking anything as he knows the best options. Wish there had been a refrigerator, even a shared one in the lobby. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was ok first and second day but third day I got scrambled eggs. Why I don’t know. Only suggestion is a bath mat. Bathroom floor and shower are extremely slippery! Lovely place to visit for a few days. Please go to restaurant la Mojarrita. Sit upstairs - excellent food and service.

Bon moment

Le propriétaire et sa femme sont adorables, toujours disponibles pour répondre à nos questions et voir à ce que les clients soient bien. Une personne nous attendait à l’arrêt d’autobus pour nous mener à l’hôtel. C’est un hôtel magnifique, vraiment. La terrasse est grande avec plusieurs chaises et tables. Il y fait chaud toutefois, car tout est en plein soleil. Le petit-déjeuner offert a été très apprécié. L’arrêt d’autobus pour aller à Las coloradas est à 5 min à pied. Le propriétaire peut organiser une visite guidée ($) avec un guide officiel qui est super gentil. 🙂 Sur le malecon, en marchant, il y a des dépanneurs pour les grignotines et des restaurants. Le centre n’est pas très loin à pied. Nous sommes restés deux soirs. Au final : qualité/prix excellents!

Great option for a stay in Rio Lagartos! Rooms are clean, there is a nice communal area to use, and Roger the owner is very friendly and helpful. If you plan to do any wildlife/flamingo tours, we highly recommend going with the option Roger can arrange for you. We did it and it was awesome.

Perfect boutique hotel and more

My husband and I celebrated our 41st anniversary. Our room with the view was exactly as shown and more. It was perfect! A nice surprise was breakfast on our little patio the next morning. Check in was smooth and very pleasant. We appreciated the help to book our boat tour. Not to be missed. Thank you. We hope to come back!

The property was suitable for a one-night stay. Perhaps due to the onset of winter, the area was quiet, and restaurant options were limited. However, the bathroom had limited or no water supply for a shower. Additionally, we were unable to have a good breakfast because the owner was out in the morning, and the staff had difficulty communicating, even with the use of a translator. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay.

Repos en face du port de Rio Lagartos

Très bel hôtel. Au bord du port, très pratique pour aller ensuite visiter la réserve naturelle. La chambre est grande, lumineuse et climatisé. Le cadre est très joli avec une belle décoration. La sortie étant a 11h, l'hôtel nous a gardé les sacs car notre visite de la réserve naturelle a finit a 11h30. Le petit déjeuner est bon, je recommande.

The refrigerator didn't work and looked like it hadn't for a number of years. (Roger did let us put things in his kitchen refrigerator.) Water leaked out from under the bathroom floor. Breakfast was a banana, a piece of toast and 4 jars of toppings. Two of the jars, the peanut butter and the nutella were filthy. They looked as though they had been handled by hundreds of people who had never washed their hands and that the jars had never been washed. The setting of the property was right across the street from the water, which was very nice.
