Top Lake Bacalar Hotel Reviews

Nalhá Hotel Boutique y Villas Bacalar

10/10 Excellent

"I highly recommend this hotel! It is beautiful! The staff including Kenia, Rigoberto, Domingo and everyone else were wonderful! Great food, pool and rooms! Private access to the lagoon! Very close to many things and taxis are easy to come by to get around! I look forward to coming back here one day! David"

Cayuco Maya

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved our cabana over the water. It doesn't have a bathroom, but we knew that, and the location was more important to us. They have kayaks and a couple of paddle boards on site that you can use free of charge. I was a bit worried by 13yr old son would be bored (it's a 15 min drive to get to Bacalar), but he fell in love with the place as much as me."
