Great option for a stay in Rio Lagartos! Rooms are clean, there is a nice communal area to use, and Roger the owner is very friendly and helpful. If you plan to do any wildlife/flamingo tours, we highly recommend going with the option Roger can arrange for you. We did it and it was awesome.

Our room was facing the river with a private balcony and had two double beds with the cleanest sheets I have ever seen in any hotel. Beds were comfortable, staff very accommodating. Silvia was helpful and kind. Will definitely come back next year!

Perfect boutique hotel and more
My husband and I celebrated our 41st anniversary. Our room with the view was exactly as shown and more. It was perfect! A nice surprise was breakfast on our little patio the next morning. Check in was smooth and very pleasant. We appreciated the help to book our boat tour. Not to be missed. Thank you. We hope to come back!

Quaint room in a Beautiful location
We had the room with the lagoon view which is beautiful. This is worth the price itself…. The room, clean and comfortable but tired, but be honest… how much did you pay!!?…. Our host was very friendly and helpful, listen to his restaurant recommendations and take a tour… You may see the raccoon in the mangroves and a crocodile too….. The bird life is amazing. Breakfast was lovely each morning 😋😋😋

A PERFECT place to stay
Wonderful from the start to the end.. Roger is a great host The view is amazing The ocean view side patio is wonderful. The property really makes you feel at home and comfotable. We had a front balcony and perfect for the breakfast that Roger would bring up to us every morning. The views and the breeze were caliming.. waking up to the birds singing. Comfotable to leave doors open throughout the night.
