The staff was great at receiving us at the time requested. The view to the lagoon was amazing. They have options to rent a kayak and go out to the lagoon. (We suggest an early morning kayak outing to see the sunrise and be back to the hotel before 9am, that’s when the winds tend to pick up). The bartender at the bar on the property was friendly and the views from the seating areas and hammocks were amazing!

Beautiful hotel right on Bacalar's lagoon. Be aware the "sandia" room with the two separate beds does not have lagoon views or a balcony. We switched to "papaya" room, a lower level with one queen bed, and that was great. Hammock in front, views to the lagoon. Helpful staff. Clean bedding and room. Simple breakfast included. Great little area down by the lagoon for hanging out, plus the dock and covered pavilion at the end, and a bar area. Really laid back and great value for the price.

View from balcony was great. exactly as shown on website. Room was basic but clean and comfortable. Continental breakfast was very good with a reasonable selection. There was a great restaurant about 2-3 minute walk from hotel on opposite side of street.

The 4 rooms with lagoon view are worth it, the other 3 not so much for the price.

Beautiful location in the lagoon, can’t beat it. The rooms are small but very comfortable, a very peaceful and laid back vibe. There is no restaurant or bar but that is fine with us! There are bars and restaurants within a few minutes walk or a 20 minute walk/an easy cab ride into town. We would definitely stay here again.

Super simple and clean, quiet too. Located n a good area of the lagoon for swimming, and directly across from bird island, making for a nice kayak trip. Only potful was very low water pressure. And chilly water…but that’s easy enough to get past, given the rest of the place is perfect!

Great!
This small hotel right on the lagoon was my favorite hotel in Mexico. Originally, I was in a room without a view but the woman that runs the place moved me to a room with a beautiful view of the lagoon. The woman was so helpful and went out of her way for me, which I really appreciated. Would definitely stay again!

Very nice location right in front of the lagoon, the room has what you need but they need to do something about the water pressure in the shower, is almost non existent

Wonderful waterfront accommodation.
This place is incredible. I don't want to leave a good review so I can get a room when I return. Wonderful quiet spot on the water, a little out of town. Great accommodation, clean, with cold buffet breakfast provided, but a small kitchen shared to do your own cooking. Great hospitality, friendly and accommodating. I would not hesitate to recommend or to visit again. Like goi g to cottage country back home, but only in the incredible Bacalar.

Left sunglasses behind and we contacted Tropic Bacalar, we sent a transfer of money to get them shipped to us to condo in Mexico and appears it was a scam as we never received them. The address we provided was the same address we put for Amazon and other purchases and they all arrive. Tropic Bacalar however used the excuse that the address is not complete which is not true. Disappointed we didn’t get glasses back and paid for the shipping.

This place is a gem in Bacalar! My husband and I were looking to disconnect from our routine and recharge our energies, and staying at Tropic Bacalar was the best decision we could make. This is a boutique hotel just with seven rooms, with excellent service. All the staff gives their best to make you feel at home, of course with an excellent view and in a great spot. Nestor from the front desk and Manuel from the bar are the best. Nestor recommended we wake up early to see the sunrise; it was one of our best experiences. You can also schedule some activities at Tropic Bacalar, like renting a kayak, bicycle, or paddle boarding (I believe they have a tour on sunrise. We booked a room with a view of the lagoon; believe me, you must do this. Every morning you can wake up to a fantastic view, plus you have direct access to the lagoon. If you want to recharge energy, have fun, and enjoy nature, Tropic Bacalar is your best option.
