What a beautiful place! Corner view of the lagoon, beautiful flowersI’ Lagoon access on a nice dock with different areas for seating and lounging beautiful breakfast in the morning and stuff that went above and beyond have a cappuccino they make the best
Fantastic design, cool amenities (kayak), amazing location (in front of the lake), healthy breakfast. Only complain would be that depending on the room, given the wood, it can be noisy if you have neighbors.

The room was cozy and clean with a fantastic view of the forest and lagoon. All the staff was very friendly and helpful as well. We enjoyed the breakfast hand delievered every morning and were very pleased with how tidy our room was after staff came in to clean. Overall it was a fantastic place and we would definitely stay here again!
My girlfriend and I had an excellent stay here. The rooms were very comfortable, and next to the lagoon. Views from the room and the property are amazing. The lagoon is a treasure, and didn't disappoint. The staff went out of their way to make sure our stay was amazing, and that we had everything we needed.
Enjoyed my stay at BoaBoa, very relaxing; the only thing I would recommend is getting a stronger Wi-Fi connection. I will definitely be back !

Pros: Attentive, friendly staff. Partial lagoon view from Tapir Room, storing our luggage and letting us use the oceanfront after check-out, the dock was awesome, walkable location from el Centro, simple yet satisfying breakfast. Fan and A/C options. The property is gorgeous.
Cons: room is a bit weathered, smelled musty/moldy, corner near A/C looked moldy, window swollen so couldn’t open much, lack of attention in housecleaning and maintenance (ashtray overflowing from prior guest, freezer compartment overgrown with ice and cutting into fridge space, some furniture in need of repair).
Perhaps other rooms were better maintained due to their full lagoon view and higher cost. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but the mold smell/look was concerning.
Excellent stay!! Super friendly and attentive staff! Awesome location with many amenities. Relaxing and calm. Great and unique rooms!!! Excellent breakfast surprise. We had a great time! Thank you and see you soon!!
Excellent in every way! If you're looking for a spot away from town this is it! You will need a car or bike to get into town or can get food delivered. The breakfast is amazing and filling and can get you through most of the day !
The room was perfectly located with a great view of the lagoon. It had a balcony where I enjoyed breakfast and coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. The room was clean and comfortable. Staff were super friendly, caring and flexible to requests. The docks next to the lagoon are magical places too.
Right at the lagoon and with a beautiful view. The staff was great! so kind and helpful even before my arrival. We loved the cabin and the cute breakfast basket. If wanting to go to the city center you (or the staff) can just call or text a taxi, it’s a 10 min drive.
Boa Boa was our favourite stay this vacation. All of the staff were so welcoming and helpful. The property is beautiful and all of the rooms were wonderful. We had the best sleep in the king sized beds!
Having access to the water and some free kayaks really added such a bonus to our trip. I highly suggest getting up early to watch the sunrise and do a little paddle.
There was lots of street parking for our car and the neighbourhood was very quiet. We look forward to our next day at Boa Boa and can’t wait to see what these amazing folks do next with their artistic talents.
We had a great stay. The staff are lovely and the rooms clean and spacious. Amazing views of the lake from our balcony. Free kayaks which was a lot of fun! The views from the deck was stunning also. Breakfast, Coffe and water were included, which we enjoyed. The hotel is about a 10 min drive or 35 min walk into Bacalar. There's lots of great bars and restaurants there!
The only slight negative was the noise from the road at night but ear plugs worked well and we were in one of the rooms closer to the highway.
Definitely recommend staying here, we loved it. Hopefully be back again.

Nice location and staff but we had a terrible night without any sleep. It’s too close to the highway and trucks will keep you up all night long.
We really enjoyed our stay at BoaBoa. Our room had a terrace overlooking the stunning lagoon, it was so nice chilling out there and also enjoying the breakfast that was delivered to the room every day. We took taxis in and out of town and they were reasonably priced (MXN 70 each way). It would have been great if the hotel had a small shop to buy snacks or drinks to make things a bit easier. The staff were friendly, but we didn't really see them beyond check-in as the reception is in a different area. Overall would highly recommend for a peaceful and relaxing stay
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Boa Boa Hotel in Bacalar, and it was a fantastic experience. The hotel's unique charm and excellent location made it an ideal choice for our trip. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall comfort of our stay.
A special mention goes to Luna, who was incredibly sweet and helpful throughout our visit. Her responsiveness and willingness to assist with anything we needed truly enhanced our experience. Luna’s dedication to excellent customer service is commendable and made our stay even more enjoyable.
Overall, I highly recommend Boa Boa Hotel for anyone visiting Bacalar. The combination of a unique atmosphere, cleanliness, and exceptional service makes it a top choice. Thank you, Luna and team, for making our stay memorable!
