This place is awesome! Very quiet, clean and comfortable. AC unit is newer and quiet and deck is large and sheltered with a beautiful view of the waterfront. The breakfast was excellent too, fresh coffee, toast and preserves and sliced fruit. The host was very nice and definitely hire the guides associated with the hotel, Arielle was awesome, very knowledgeable and spoke great English 👍 We stayed in the suite over looking the waterfront, really nice :)) Make sure to head out into the biosphere as early as possible, we went at sunrise and saw lots of wildlife before it got busy and too hot.

This hotel stands out as the best value I’ve seen after years of staying in mid to low range Mexican hotels. My room was the quietest I’ve had in Mexico, on the 2nd floor with a well furnished terrace looking out over the water. The room was bright and spotlessly clean. The two complaints I see the most of in reviews are: no hot water and uncomfortable pillows. NOT the case here! Super- comfortable bed and pillows, lots of hot water. A very nice continental breakfast with a thermos of coffee is brought to you on the terrace each morning by Sylvia or Roger, the very friendly management team. Roger arranged a boat tour for me with Ariel, an extremely knowledgeable licensed guide and naturalist; well worth doing.

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.
