"The hotel is very nice and very friendly, and it is very good for you. But there was never anyone available, I had to write them by message to ask them things... TV had no sign and it was old, they give you a bottle filled with shampoo... and a pink Venus soap. and instead of a wheel of bath paper they put you from the dispenser paper .. this bad truth"

"I have been to Rio Lagartos many times. I often stayed in this hotel. I like to sit on the balcony of the Pelican room and look at the lagoon ... Birds, people, boats. Fresh wind ... Rest from the city vacation. Beautiful hotel, wonderful people. Who loves cats are part of the family here. Breakfast is unexcessed but delicious. Fresh fruit, fries of oranges. Mexican freshly cooked coffee. Hotel owner is family: Mom and daughter. Beautiful people will tell, advise, find). Now, by the way, time for the Languests. And from August 1, boom for the Oct. Who loves fresh seafood and cheap - all in Rio Lagartos)."

Hotel El Perico Marinero

Hotel El Perico Marinero

📍 Calle 9, Malecon, Rio Lagartos
★★ 8.3 (7 reviews)

"We stayed here during our tour of Mexico. We stayed at 9 places, so I think we have a fair amount of comparison material. Let me start with the positive. The staff speaks little or no English, but they really try to help the guests. The rooms are quite spacious and our room had a view of the river. There was also a bag of freshly ground coffee. Unfortunately our sheets were not clean and that is a real turn-off. The breakfast at this hotel is really bizarrely bad. The worst we have eaten in Mexico. The pool is very nice, as are the sunbeds."

Yuum Ha Boutique Hotel

Yuum Ha Boutique Hotel

📍 Calle 9 por 12 y 14, Rio Lagartos
★★★ 8.3 (38 reviews)

"There were a lot of good things about this hotel, it was clean and comfortable. Lots of towels and decent shampoo/soap, and a nice mini fridge stocked with snacks if you like (junk food snacks, of course). We had dinner at their restaurant and it was absolutely delicious. We were on the third floor and went up to the roof to watch the sunset - it was gorgeous. Unfortunately, I came to this hotel to sleep and I didn’t at all. There was music blasting until 12:30am, dogs barking all night long, and motorcycles driving on the road in front of the hotel all night long. I’m not sure if the music was coming from the bar at the hotel or if it just carried, but I could hear the words clearly over the AC fan on high. My husband slept with ear plugs in and he still heard it all. So, yes, it is a nice a hotel but it’s not sound proof at all, so if you’re not a heavy sleeper, try a different hotel or a different town."

Hotel Punta Ponto ★★
"The hotel was very welcome at Ponto de Rio Lagartos. The breakfast and the staff were great. The only detail to improve was the condition of the beds."

Hotel Tabasco Rio ★★★
"The hotel is close to the docks, so it is easy to access for the tour. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The rooms do not have silent walls, so you can hear everything from the room above and to the sides; if you are on the ground floor, you can hear everything from the hallway and you cannot sleep."

Hotel Villa de Pescadores ★★★
"Don't know how we could have topped this choice for our two night stay in Rio Lagartos. The off-street parking made us feel our rental car was safer and the view from our third floor balcony was beautiful. I got shots of Frigate birds flying right by our balcony in the evening. Sunset view from the roof is spectacular. You can even see Flamingos in the morning from the roof with binoculars. Felipe and his wife were excellent hosts and made us feel at home with special treats both days. (I am still looking for the chocolate and cinnamon covered ground pepita candy Felipe shared with us! Looked all over Merida, they were sooo good!) Felipe provided us with everything we needed from duct tape to a bottle of wine for our balcony bird watching. Another plus was that we found the bird watching guide we read about (Diego Nunez) right next door at his restaurant, El Torreja. Couldn't have been easier to line up a bird watching trip. Love this hotel! The absolute only negative was the loud rooster starting up around 3:30 am, but hey this is Mexico and we love being immersed in the whole ambiance. Beautiful place and we would totally stay here again. Seeing 1000's of Flamingos was like a dream come true."

Yuum Ha Boutique Hotel ★★★
"Great view! Yuum Ha Hotel location was very nice and right across from the malecon. The pool was better than expected and great for cooling off in. The staff were very friendly and especially Bernaby (Barnaby) and Julie. We loved walking to Sendero Peten Mac and making use of a mototaxista Juan who we used for an excursion to San Felipe and Las Coloradas and playa Cancunito. Juan has a mototaxi that has good shade and he was friendly and pointed out crocodiles in mangroves at the side of the road. It was only 20 minutes by mototaxi to San Felipe and 40 minutes to Las Coloradas. You can contact Juan through the hotel’s front desk staff. The posted hotel rules regarding no outside beverages or food even in rooms, seemed very unreasonable and so we ignored the rule. We did also eat and drink in the hotel restaurant area."
