Top Magisterial Hotel Reviews

La Galuna Bacalar

8/10 Good

"The place was indeed quiet. Decently maintained for age the rooms had."

Hotel Rancho Encantado

10/10 Excellent

"Al ser temporada baja el menú del restaurante estaba limitado a pocos platillos, sin embargo , la calidad de los mismo era excelente. Las escaleras para bajas a la laguna estaba en mal estado y daban la apariencia de muy viejas y las tablas de pádel en mal estado y muy pocos! El staff fue muy amable siempre atento a nuestras necesidades"

Hotel Casa Poblana

10/10 Excellent

"Merci à cette famille serviable et aux petits soins! Impeccable casita! Très propre! Totalement dans mes standards de propreté! Nous avons loué 2 chambres. La seniora fait les chambres quotidiennement et change les serviettes et les poubelles. Elle a également accepté gentiment de nous faire une lessive💙 Le 2e étage offre une superbe vue sur le lagon avec une terrasse pour profiter de la vue. Les chambres disposent d’air climatisé et ventilateur, donc très confortable. Nous y avons passé 3 nuits au départ, mais ça nous a tellement plu que nous avons ajouté 3 autres nuits! Très bien localisé, à 5 min de marche du lagon et 15 min du centro! Parfait et sécuritaire. Seule recommandation que je donnerais: ajouter des mini réfrigérateurs dans les chambres pour avoir à porté de mains de l’eau froide, mais sinon on a aussi accès à une cuisine commune qui dispose de toutes les necessités. MUCHAS GRACIAS."
