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. ❤️❤️

The photos they show are very altered, the conditions of the hotel are bad, the staff has no training to make you feel welcome, the breakfast is very poor, as well as the service is terrible... you never feel so welcome, we chose to leave early and lose a night. The pool is terrible... what a shame not to feel good and welcome.

Underwhelming

Access was tough. The entry way was through what seemes to bw the back. With no signage no directions. The room was modest but less than what i expected and paid for. It was off to the side of the main building. The "hotel" was more of a private home where rooms were rented as hotels rooms.

Clean, quiet place to sleep at a good price.

Free parking on site, but you have to ring the bell at the main gate. Staff was friendly, but spoke little English. The property is large. Our room had a (shared) walk-out balcony with view of trees and lake. Free breakfast was simple, but nice. Location is only ~6 blocks to the fort and the main town square, which has lovely dining options. The square itself is alive with townsfolk in the evening. Feels more like a real Mexican town than most tourist destinations along the coast. Lovely.

We arrived at 14:45. The person who opened the door immediately said, the check-in is at 15:00! No greetings or anything. It was the same during the breakfast. It started at 8 AM and the same person told us at 7:50, the breakfast starts at 8! She also wanted to sell a tour more expensive than what the official prices were. We booked a standard room, but they gave us a tiny service room "used" as a regular room outside of the house (literally beside the service room). No really happy with our stay there.
