Sababa is the best of a bad bunch in San Pedro. I would avoid staying in San Pedro as there is nothing other than nightlife in the place (ok if that’s what you are looking). Sababa itself is nice at first sight, although it’s very limited for space and shade. The dining area also plays music at a level as if it was a concert, which is not relaxing or enjoyable. Room doesn’t have AC and the blanket and pillows are terribly uncomfortable. Sheets were partly stained on arrival. Bathroom was OK, very dated. Positives - breakfast buffet and food are top notch. The staff at the bar are friendly and helpful. Overall, if you have to stay in San Pedro, Sababa is a good option but it is expensive compared to other places we stayed that we’re just as nice. It’s overpriced for what it is..

Tooms were uncomfortable, bathroom way too small that you had to literally step on top of the toile to close the door. The furniture in the room was cery cheap and flimpsy, they try to be too “organic” and catered to a gen-z demographics sacrificing comfort, the bed was too stiff. The front desk was also a var, and almost a month later and i still have not received my room deposit from the hotel. I do not recommend it

I loved everything about this property.The room was very spacious and comfortable. I lived the room had a sofa to sit outaide and enjoy the views. We staid on the firat floor in front of the pool, very convenient as the restaurant was right next to the pool.We liked that breakfast was included but didnt start till 8 AM, we are used to waking up early around 6 to get the day started and be able to do more, but it was fine overall.

Loved almost everything about this property, truly the only bad thing I have to add and this is just the random luck of the room I got that it was right next to the loud jet for the pool.

This place was so nice but doesn’t include water so you literally have to buy it. there a little restaurant in front that has good prices and food/drinks. Hotel menu is way too pricey. Amazing views, loved it. Area around the property was okay, lots of construction around the area.

The pictures on the website are misleading. This is not a true resort... it's more like a hostel and needs updating everywhere. The saving grace is the breakfast and the nice staff. we shortened our stay.

I mean the property was ok the back was nice for views and photos! Easy access to boat transportation. Wasn’t feeling the breakfast didn’t have any meat none to even purchase and the food was cold. The tub felt like it was gonna cave in and low pressure in the shower.

The dorm beds, shower, food, staff all good. The area when you pull up to Sababa could use some upgrade and repair. Why doesn’t the resort have its own boats also would make it so much professional add some entertainment and music otherwise you’re entertaining yourself.

The best part of this hotel is the lake-side location, but the actual facilities and amenities leave much to be desired. Be aware you are essentially staying in a pool-side cabana which has been converted into a "room" by adding a front-door and a shower. At night you can expect noise to be an issue, especially if you are in one of the rooms closest to the pool. This is because the walls are not completely solid (the part where the wall connects to ceiling is simply insect-screen). On the night we stayed, another hotel guest was talking on the phone at 1:00 A.M. pacing around by the pool immediately in front of us, and it felt like she was standing inside our room. Also, there are speakers playing EDM until the late evening and then start up again at 8:00 A.M. The payment process is tedious and inconvenient. Credit cards are not accepted to pay for your stay, so at check-in you need to be ready with all of the cash in hand. The irony is at check-out they also refused to accept a 100 quetzal note when I was paying for mini-fridge purchases (despite 100 Q being the standard note issued by ATMs). We are relieved we only stayed here for a single night, and we will look for a different place to stay in San Pedro next time.

Good pretty location
Great location with a beautiful view! Staff was friendly and the incisive breakfast was very good. It even included latte. We stayed in a private room with king bed and it was comfortable and clean. Bathtub was a bit dated and water pressure was sometimes a problem. Resort is not fir anyone with mobility issues and there are many tripping hazards… landscaping is nice to look at but very difficult to navigate. Great spot in San Padro close to bars and restaurants ❤️

Beautiful, soft sheets and bed. Really nice staff. Pool is nice but more for lounging, not really swimming. Parties nearby at hostels so super loud. If it wasn't the top hotel in the area, I would probably stay elsewhere.

What I didn't like was the fact that I had to pay either in quetzales or in dollars. I had to use the money I had put aside to spend during my stay and took out not once but twice money out of the ATM. They claim the machine was down but I was able to pay for dinner and few drinks at the bar with my card. Also, the bathtub drainage was clogged. The place was nice and food, drinks were good. Would I stay again? No, I would pick somewhere else to stay.

The hotel is cute and probably the nicest one in San Pedro La Laguna but the rooms are very noisy, especially the ones by the pool. The restaurant plays the music starting at 7am until 10pm and it’s pretty loud. Also, the front of all rooms are just windows but the glass is very thin and the top layer is only a mesh so when people are talking outside of your room you can hear everything as if they were inside your room!
