"Our room was on First floor, there is no lift/elevator. The owner Roger was very helpful with baggage. Parking onsite is limited, however, there is plenty street parking. Roger arranged his friend to take us on Boat tour of the Lagoon. This was fantastic experience. Breakfast is basic and filling, not fancy. Restaurants in the village are few."

"A very nice place to spend the night while visiting Rio Lagartos and Loss Colorados. We got an ocean view and it was worth it. The room is comfortable and we slept well enough after the Saturday night celebrations stopped. It’s a bit tough for parking and the shower has little pressure, but the staff were super friendly and drinks and food was on point. All in all a nice stay. "
