Beware of this expensive, overpriced hotel, with careless reception staff. We had a lake view room, but since the property is on a hill, the front-facing lake rooms are right next to the bar, pool, and dining area. It was like being in a cheap all-inclusive motel with 80s music blasting, making it impossible to escape. And don’t even get me started on the neighbors beach club music. This place shamelessly upsells a 3-star property as a 5 star. Be warned. No refunds offered , no apologies , it was clear staff knew about this , but a half-hearted “we’ll rebook you” doesn’t work anymore when you cheat on your guests. They charged us as if we were in a prime Tulum beach location, shameless. For this premium price, you don’t even get an espresso for breakfast unless you pay extra. And the food is average, like you’d expect from a 3-star hotel. Do not go here.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Carolina Bacalar. The staff was very friendly, forthcoming, helpful and even went the extra mile to assist. For example, when you decide to book a tour just one hour before it starts, they make it happen. :) Kayaks and SUPs were always available to explore the Cenote Negro close by. Service at the bar and sunbeds is great as well. Highly recommended!

“Great!”
We had a lovely stay here. We came here very stressed due to a not so good experience in a previous hotel . However the hotel dealt with us very well and accommodated us so thank you for this we really appreciate it. A big shout out to Yuri for sorting this out. Thanks !

Room was really good with quiet airco. Our breakfast included eggs of our choice and that made for a very fine breakfast. Manager was very friendly and did his best to help us with our concerns. I enjoyed using the SUP stand up paddle boards which were free to use.

“Overall this was good value for money. Great location, you can easily walk to town.”
We had a room on the first floor which was perfect. The access to the lake is great, they have everything you need (kayaks, vests, etc) provided for the guests for free. Rooms are well-maintained, clean, and the bed is so comfy. The lake is beautiful.
