"10/10! Worth every penny. My husband and I stayed for 7 nights and were able to truly unplug and unwind here. The staff is excellent and very helpful. The property is clean and gorgeous. The amenities like complimentary breakfast (which was a very generous portion and delicious), exercise classes (mat Pilates, barre and yoga), water coloring class and paddle boards for guests made our experience top tier. The outdoor shower felt super clean and I couldn’t wait to use it everyday. The only down side is the property is not near any restaurants and is not walkable. We had to take a taxi to the downtown area every day and it added up, about $30 round trip each time we left. The breakfast and lunch menu were delicious. The dinner for some reason was not, which is why we’d leave every night. Also prices are quite steep compared to restaurants in downtown that taste better. However, we’d definitely come back again and will miss the property and staff until then. "
"The hotel was located around many dining options and they even had a little lobby to purchase snacks in case you were in need of something after hours. The beds were big and comfy. The air conditioning and fan were amazing to come to after a hot humid day. We had a nice size refrigerator in the room for our left overs. All in all it was a fantastic find for the cost. "
"Really enjoyed our family stay at this small lakeside hotel. Our room was lovely rustic chic, clean and had very good aircon.
The breakfast each morning was superb- a mix of buffet items and ordering a la carte.
So far the best cocktails I’ve tasted on this 2 week trip.
Good proximity to main “town” and other restaurants
Highly recommend "
"The property was definitely not what I expected, Location was nice and it was right on the water, but there is absolutely no view one tiny window. There were holes in the doors only one pillow. Even though it was on the water, the decking, etc., was not in good condition. It was hard to find there’s no name on the door out front."
"Con sólo 16 habitaciones, el Amainah es un hotel prácticamente perfecto para una estadía en Bacalar. Instalaciones, restaurante, bar, alberca... todo es sumamente disfrutable.
Dos detalles mínimos: Rentamos una habitación con alberca privada, el agua estaba fría, por lo que no la pudimos usar en la noche, como era nuestro plan. El otro es que los muros, todos en cemento pulido, rebotan mucho el sonido y, por la noche, los ruidos se magnifican; sería buena idea colocar algunos cuadros textiles, para aminorar ese efecto.
