Room was clean and well-maintained. It had an airconditioner and 2 comfortable beds. It's in a beautiful, tranquil place in front of the lagoon. You can use the kayaks, canoe and paddleboard. Breakfast is provided and is freshly made when seated. It's a mexican breakfast and it's satisfying before starting the day.

We fell in love with this place. We only booked 2 nights because we were apprehensive about being able to sleep without AC and not knowing the bathroom facilities however we are already dying to go back. We loved the facility and grounds. For animal lovers it's great - there were cats, dogs and even Rosita the coconut eating pig on the grounds! It was nice to have the free access to the kayaks and the free breakfast! We did have dinner both nights there and both nights it was the same 2 options (I'm not sure whether that changes at all but I will say if we had stayed another night we would have gone into town because we were bored of the same meal option BUT for 100 pesos each for dinner I really can't complain). The food and beer prices were really reasonable and they had a communal fridge for guests. Some info for the room (the basic cabin) - we loved it. We managed without using the fan the first night but the second night it was way too hot to sleep without it but obviously that comes with the loud noise of the fan so bring earplugs if you can't sleep with loud noise. The beds are very short - we're both 5'7" so managed okay but I think anyone over 5'10" would be uncomfortable. There is a plug socket so you don't have to worry about not being able to charge things. Obviously expect lots of bugs! A note about the staff - we saw negative reviews when booking but everyone we dealt with was kind and pleasant!

The location is along the lake and tucked in a jungle. But the properry is simple and better for camping and simple services. Food is really good. You need to have your own car or call a taxi to get into town. So its about 300 pesos each way.

La propiedad esta lejos de la ciudad, la haboitacion, simple y con muchos insectos muertos, o sea no limpia, es como para gente que quiere ir de campamento, obvio al estar frente a la laguna, muchos moscos, la recomiendo si quieres ir a vacacionar sin muchos recursos y para entrar y llegar es una brecha de 1.8 km de terraceria, ademnas te dicen pet frenly y sus pinches perros estan sueltos, entonces al llegar es su ttereno y atacan al que tu lleves y te quejas y te dicen que ellos son terriotiales y ni pedo.
