Top Cenote Esmeralda Hotel Reviews

Casa Aakal Lagoon Front

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place! The view to the lagoon from the rooms is amazing. The place is clean and well maintained. Housekeepers and receptionists were nice and helpful. If you need transportation to different points in the area receptionist can call a 🚖 for you. Taxis charge $60 Mexican pesos to take you anywhere (Roughly $4dls) one way anywhere in Bacalar. As far as the downside the rooms are small, we were 4 people in one tiny 2 double bedroom and beds are a little to hard for me. Although they have a beautiful terrace to eat breakfast and the breakfast is good they have limited items, However, there are places nearby to eat a good meal. El Timon Restaurant is next door and has a variety of meals but doesn't open until noon. They have Kayaks and bicycles for rent at a fair price. If you're driving they have a closed garage. Overall, Aakal Lagoon is a great place to stay if you're looking for fair prices and location convenience."

Cristalino Lagoon Front Hotel Restaurant & SPA - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"The good: the staff were super friendly and helpful; the breakfasts and desserts were great; and the location on the lagoon was perfect. The not-so-good: the resort pools need to be repaired (peeling floors) and the whole property could use an update and some TLC."

Hotel Isabella Bacalar Front Lagoon

8/10 Good

"El Cuarto estaba muy limpio y la Propiedad está súper bien porque tiene su muelle y puedes estar nadando ahí agusto, lo único malo es que pasando la media noche empezaron a usar como un martillo, como si estuvieran trabajando en esa habitación y justo quedaba abajo de nuestro cuarto, y después a las 3 am igual, Lo malo es que por más que llamamos a recepción nunca nos contestaron."

Hotel Laguna Bacalar

10/10 Excellent

"Love this place . Epic views , jump into cenote Esmeralda right off the dock . Take a boat tour from the friendly staff that operates via the same dock . Sunrise and moonrise over the lake was incredible and worth setting alarms for . A/C worked well and maids cleaned the room sparkly clean . Building is old so there are parts where tiles are loose but that comes with the territory being oldest hotel on the lake. Overall it was an incredible stay and a hard place to leave. I hope to return but we will have to get the private cabin that doesn’t have a drop off the porch as we will be returning with a toddler next trip ."
