My room was the quietest I’ve had in Mexico, on the 2nd floor with a well furnished terrace looking out over the water. The room was bright and spotlessly clean. The two complaints I see the most of in reviews are: no hot water and uncomfortable pillows. NOT the case here! Super- comfortable bed and pillows, lots of hot water. A very nice continental breakfast with a thermos of coffee is brought to you on the terrace each morning by Sylvia or Roger, the very friendly management team. Roger arranged a boat tour for me with Ariel, an extremely knowledgeable licensed guide and naturalist; well worth doing. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna 10 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The view from the front balcony rooms is awesome.

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! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/464A4C102B7E869092807120BBAE0E8B82438EC71709763579904.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/CD177562B681D3DB2A641753C6DAC7AA67186D151709763579063.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/207601EA3B7B951A1CCA94CC64C3ACBF8D8BACBA1709763644034.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sandra Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Adarsh 28 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was suitable for a one-night stay. Perhaps due to the onset of winter, the area was quiet, and restaurant options were limited. However, the bathroom had limited or no water supply for a shower. Additionally, we were unable to have a good breakfast because the owner was out in the morning, and the staff had difficulty communicating, even with the use of a translator. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay. ##### Adarsh Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Julee 15 Feb 2025 Close to bus station. Roger is very kind and helpful. If you go for tours wait to talk to him before booking anything as he knows the best options. Wish there had been a refrigerator, even a shared one in the lobby. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was ok first and second day but third day I got scrambled eggs. Why I don’t know. Only suggestion is a bath mat. Bathroom floor and shower are extremely slippery! Lovely place to visit for a few days. Please go to restaurant la Mojarrita. Sit upstairs - excellent food and service. Say hi to Pedro and Juan ##### Julee Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Angelo 21 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel had a genuine feeling, but it felt a little basic. The room was big enough, the bathroom more than adequate. Aircon worked. We would have loved that the lady at the reception spoke some English. We made due with our little knowledge of Spanish. The same lady however contacted a partner who could provide us with the necessary excursions for the next dat. Great recommendation. Small note of critique: the headboard of the bed was made out of some kind of fresh wood (I'm not sure the chirping sound of some kind of insect / woodworm was supposed to be there...). Breakfast was simple, but ok. ##### Angelo Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### James 30 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Pros: Location is decent; safe with on-site parking and good views of the lagoon. Restaurants within walking distance. Staff (Roger, I think) was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was simple but was brought up to our balcony which was a nice touch. The shower worked (our friend’s in another room didn’t) and we had plenty of hot water. Beds were comfortable. Cons: the property is dated; the toilet seat was broken and didn’t fit properly. It was quite the challenge to use the toilet. There were quite a few bugs (tiny ants mainly) by the window in the shower. There was quite a bit of road noise. This was kind of unexpected given how small this town is and the location of the hotel, but it was a challenge sleeping due to cars and motorcycles passing at pretty much all hours of the night. I recommend a sleep mask and ear plugs. There also was a common area right next to our room and several guys were out there partying pretty loudly until about 1am. We were in the front room upstairs on the right if you are looking at the hotel from the street. Bottom line: you get what you pay for. Was it the worst place I’ve ever stayed, no. If I come back to Rio Lagartos would I stay here again? Probably not. I think there are better options and I would be willing to pay a little more next time. ![View from our balcony](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/592e79a9-9c08-4f6e-8e2e-faaae633281e-1774882150016.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View of hotel from tour boat](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/21365f90-fc38-4336-aa6e-37d1d8890834-1774882145804.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### James Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joy 8 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I did not personally have an ocean view, but the people I was with did have that.

Property in a perfect location.
