I paid additional $200 (Mexican) and update a room. It was a wonderful room with a view to a lagune. Absolute wonderful. We got up early due to jet leg and from a balcony obtained 180 degree view to free space, boats going to fishing and with birds singing at the background. Bed is comfortable,. Bathroom is OK. Good place for one night flamingo tour.

Great location, friendly staff, they offer great tours. The breakfast was good, but would benefit fresh juices instead of juice boxes.

We loved our stay here! The space and apartment were really modern, clean and well equipped. I loved that you could see the water from the room too, plus the hammock was lovely to relax on. It was the perfect place to relax. The hosts were really helpful and booked us a tour out to see the flamingos. He was excellent and both the accomodation and the trip made Rio Lagartos a standout stop on our Mexico trip.

Rio Lagartos is a fishing village that is refreshingly immune to tourism except for nature tours. The location was excellent. Both Victor and Ariel were wonderful taking us on boat rides and nature watching tours. Ariel's English was pretty good and he was always available to help. I really enjoyed being with him. It's really close to the restaurants and the one next door has a fabulous sunset views. I enjoyed just sitting down by the dock and watching the water. The deck has nice chairs for reading.

Right up in the middle of nowhere!
Right up in the middle of nowhere! Beautiful little waterfront town. Access to flamingos, fresh seafood and a very chill vibe. Bring cash, dress down, relax. Do not expect too much from this place or the people, but do expect to be wow-ed by the scenario on the water and the public beach areas, access to the freshest food and the friendliest smiles. 2-3 nights is plenty in this location.

Nice village, but when we entered the village by car on our way to the hotel we were chased by someone on a scooter trying to sell us a boat tour, which we felt was very inappropriate and unsettling. We booked a tour next to our hotel at Rio Lagartos Adventures because they treat the evironment and the animals they encounter during their tours with respect (no directly disturbing or feeding the animals). Beautiful sunsets, highly recommended visit.

We did not travel round town as we visited purely to to the river boat trip. We booked a last minute night tour. I must admit that we were extremely lucky that our guide caught a relatively medium sized crocodile (he himself was was surprised at the size when he grabbed it as he thought it was much smaller). The kids loved it and we had a great time, however I must say that we were EXTREMELY lucky to see one at night let alone catch it and bring it onboard. The guide also had lost hope in seeing our catching one. So if you intend to do this tour ask and ask again what the chances are, the tour operators never give any guarantees but 70% chance vs 10% makes a big difference. We had about 10% though they only told us this once we were off!!
We also booked day river trip which left at 7am this was also great fun and we same plenty of birds including flamingos though at a distance. I highly recommend the tour and Rio lagartos is definitely worth the trip.
We ate at La Majoritta restaurant. The food was exceptional and real good value for money. Be aware that there are only 4 tables, but I don’t think Rio lagartos gets very busy.
We also went up to The colorades, though I have mixed feelings about the place. Yes the lakes are pink. And they look pretty however to view them closely you need to pay 350mx /person to walk for 30min along man made salt lakes. In my opinion this extortion. We saw them from outside. From Rio lagartos this is a 30min drive.

We came with rented car to Rio Lagartos just for 1 night and it was too short. Next time we will spend in this small village at least 2 or 3 nights. Of course, there isn't too much what to do after the sunset, but during the day nature is really amazing.

The city itself is not very beautiful and there is no much to do in it, but you just need to rent a boat in the port to have a great day and admire the animals in the wild.
We managed to see: crocodiles, flamingos, pelicans, cranes, eagles, raccoons ...
I also recommend visiting Sendero Petén Mac !

There is an important bioreserve for flamingoes and hundreds of other birds as well as raccoons and crocodiles. We had an excellent tour guide. The tourist industry is developing there and we enjoyed meals out and coffee at nearby restaurants.
We had a great two night stay at Posada Mercy. It really exceeded our expectation. We like everything about this hotel. We had a triple room with a balcony with a view of the pier. Room is bigger than I expected and it is very clean. Breakfast is delicious. The boat tour organized by the hotel was super fun. You can also handwash your clothes and hang them to dry on the clothelines in the courtyard. Staff is very nice and accommodating. A great stop on our way to Chichen Itza and Merída. Highly recommend this place.

Clean and comfortable for a few nights. The staff was friendly and helpful. We loved staying in this fishing town. The hotel is very close to the water. It was nice to have the balcony space to lounge in even if it was a shared space with another room. It looked out onto a street view with the town square that can be noisy if there are events taking place (as it was when we were there).
The view from the balcony in our bedroom is breathtaking, the hotel facing the fishermen piers and the biospher reserve, motherns=ature and wildlife at its best. Also, the attention from the management team (Yoel) and the owner himself (Don Felipe) made the stay friendly.
Well designed rooms overlooking the water and the malecon with small balconies. Staff very friendly and helpful, good ambience, delightful breakfast. Been to Rio Lagartos a couple of times and this is best place in town.
Very clean rooms. The shower was good. Free tea & coffee. Lovely staff. We took an excellent tour to the Bioreserve with the hotel. Luis was our guide & he was excellent (guide was in Spanish only)
I liked just about everything about my stay at the hotel. The fact that there's a large bird roost right behind the place with flamingos and other birds was amazing (we were here in January)!
Staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Bed comfortable and room very clean. Offer boat trips from the hotel at a very reasonable price. Great location. Breakfast was very good.
Small hotel, convenient outdoor sitting area, pool, 5-10 minute walk to any point in town
One of the tour operators, informed by our host, dropped by to arrange a tour, can recommend it!
Friendly familie with a brand new hotel. A small but amazing pool and nice rooms. It’s close to the city centre. We were lucky: the city had a great fiesta going on. Sweet and authentic.
Close to everything, good stay for one night.
parking in the front of the hotel. the Personal speak not so good English.
