Gorgeous place. Just a dream. Very simple place perfect for a family or a group of friends. The excess to the water is just amazing.

Too many little bugs in the house (ants and others) and kitchen window was dirty. House needed a proper deep clean. Would have been more handy if it had more kitchen cooking and eating items. Beds and pillows could use a upgrade. Not a deal breaker. Still very beautiful over all.

Overall house beautiful inside and out. Hoste was very friendly and attentive.

Lacking bedside lamps. Living room lacking a nice lamp (only neon light, not very cosy in evening). If you are serious about cooking you may find the pots and pans too old, but the owner is very responsive and will probably get you new stuff if you ask for it. Wish there was a water dispenser like in other hostels/hotels to help cut down on the number of plastic bottles which are not recycled.

Fantastic location on the lake, with private pontoon, chairs, sunbeds, roof-covered terrasse with dining table, and 5 kayaks for full time use. Stunning views from sunrise to sunset. Easy kayak trip to 3 in-lake Cenotes: Negro, Esmeralda, Cocalitos (with stromatolites) and small islands. Walking distance to several restaurants: we loved Chiltepín Marisquillos Bacalar restaurant (and not Balik restaurant!). Excellent shower with hot water and good pressure. Good air conditioning, fridge, microwave, toaster. Comfortable sofas in living room. Owner was very helpful through WhatsApp and promptly provided missing items such as kitchen towels and and food trays when asked. Right next to a beach lagoon club that rents kayaks, SUP and mopeds. Garden equipped with swings and games for kids. if you have small kids (we don’t) watch out for the open staircase and burning hot water in the shower.! Bring your own hand soap, shampoo etc, not provided.

House starting to show its age.

Location was great, house was clean. Staff was attentive and almost never seen.

The property was very dirty, with extremely limited kitchen facilities and would not advise planning to eat or cook there. Toilets very smelly and washing machine (very old twin tub style which was pulled apart in pieces when we arrived) not useable even though advertised. We could not get the TV to work when we arrived, and bedding old and dirty and whole place definitely needing a refresh. Front gate broken making access difficult at best and some doors not opening/closing easily. Overall, the house is dirty and many things don’t work and left us disappointed, however host was obliging letting us check in one hour early and were easily contactable with our concerns, however too much of our precious time there was spent dealing with the property shortcomings.

Fabulous location on laguna with kayaks for kids which entertained them all day and spacious grassy yard. Jetty good to relax on.

the house and the service have been highly disappointing. There is no maintenance at all, many cupboards are broken, the bunk bed is not safe, as screws are not fixed, bed sheet too small for the bed, flushing not working, it smells very bad and it was not well cleaned. so many bugs and ants in the cooking equipment, not enough cooking equipment for 6 people. there was no single glass, and not enough forks for us. When we have asked for it, they brought us very cheap and random plastic glass and at first did not want to give forks. they wanted to enter the house to prove us there was enough, and as I refused they entered, they gave it asking me to show the 3 forks to a camera in the garden, which made me discovered we were filmed 24/24! so weird and not pleasant, and completely too expensive. our worst stay in the country. could be paradise if they fix their house and put a decent equipment for people to have a nice stay.

the outside site is very nice with a private access to the lagoon and a nice garden

House has great location but it require full renovation. I was not able to find any furniture in good condition, bed mattress was covered with plastic bags. Extreamly overpayed.

Next to the lagoon.

Be very careful with the mosquitos, I know it's a natural thing

I loved the location, the area was great! Best place I have ever stayed at, very close to down town area.

This place is dirty and in need of a thorough refurbishment and isn’t clean, but here’s a list of the reasons why to avoid this place: - BED BUGS!!! - Mice poop (even found some on the foldable bed) - We had workers showing up the gate late at night unannounced, waking up our baby 3 times by ringing the bell because they needed to get some work done. They didn’t speak any English so we had no idea what was going on. - The Kayaks are in a bad state and the life vests included are covered with bird poo as they are left outside - The pontoon isn’t finished and dangerous as it is full with nails, so it cannot be used - We had to wait for 20 minutes in the soaring heat for the check-in as nobody showed up at the agreed time. - The owner promised to reimburse us for all of this but never did and just stopped communicating.

WARNING AVOID AT ALL COST: INFESTED WITH BEDBUGS. I stayed here for two nights with my family and my parents & children are all covered in horrendous bed bug bites. We also found mice poop all over the house, including in the seems of the bed when we were looking for the bedbugs (and found them!).
