Hotel Villa de Pescadores - 97720 Río Lagartos

convenient location and we were lucky to find this gem on Aribnb! It's towards the end of the tiny fishing village of Rio Lagartos, which itself is located on the Gulf Coast of the state of Yucatan in Mexico. The place was our base when heading to Las Coloradas Pink Lake. Right across the street, you have access to the Marina which served as our launch pad for the boat ride into the Reserva de la Biosfera Ría Lagartos to view crocodiles, flamingos and many other birds from up close. We arrived quite late in the evening, the front desk receptionist and the manager Elena welcomed us warmly and helped us book the boat tour for the next morning. We got a room on the top most floor that had a balcony looking out to the water, but the climb up the tiny winding stairs with luggage is a bit of struggle. The palm trees did obstruct the view but we were hardly in the room since we stayed just one night. The room was comfortable with all the basic amenities and the eco-friendly toiletries were a nice touch. Elena gave some great tips about visiting the Los Coloradas and the restaurants around. Overall, it was a great stay and we would visit again.

Third floor room Nine is 5 stars for what it is, an inexpensive clean king room with air, hot water and wifi. A balcony with great views overlooking the water is a bonus. Friendly staff at check in. We didnt much care for the nonstop annoyance of guys trying to sell us boat trips everytime we stepped outside to walk the area. Not the hotels fault but it is a nuisance.

Door barely closed, water in shower would not drain. Terrible wifi. Otherwise the room was standard with a nice little balcony

The most comfortable bed we have stayed in Mexico so far! Also the most enjoyable shower, hot with lots of water pressure… amazing views in the king rooms with balcony’s over looking the water. One criticism is the patchy WiFi but the trade off is a quaint town with little tourism and a short journey to the beautiful sleepy los colorodas.

This hotel is a bargain priced gem! Our room was very clean with firm but comfortable mattresses and pillows, a balcony with chairs and table looking out onto the water. The room also had good a/c and flat screen TV. There is a small parking lot just outside the lobby and 3 restaurants within a block

The rooms are clean and ok. The lower 3 rooms are horrible…. No glas in the windows. you can hear everything from the street.

Nice room with ocean view. Great guide recommendation for a boat tour. Wifi is not great in the rooms though (the best reception for the wifi of this hotel is at the restaurant accros the street, go figure ?).

Very nice place especially the balcony with the view on the river. The room was clean and spacious and we had hot water all the time. The beds were comfortable. Ask for the room upstairs. The breakfast was also good.
