Great accommodation. Beautiful place! I recommend it. Very responsive hosts.

Host Response

Dear Batia, Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation! We’re delighted to know you enjoyed the beauty of the property and that our team’s responsiveness helped make your stay even more comfortable. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back for another beautiful stay by the lagoon. 🌿

We spent a few incredible days at Casa Lole. The accommodation is simply spectacular: it combines absolute peace and tranquility with the perfect space to have the most fun as a family. The facilities were impeccable, with attention to detail and everything you need to enjoy Bacalar without worries. We took home beautiful memories of this stay. Totally recommended. We would definitely stay here again!

Host Response

Dear Margarita, What a pleasure to know that Casa Lole was the setting for such special days with family! We are very happy that you found that balance between tranquility, fun and comfort, and that every detail of the house allowed you to enjoy a worry-free stay. Thank you for choosing us to create those family memories. We look forward to welcoming you back to Casa Lole. 🌿

Beautiful home with a well equipped kitchen and spacious areas. It is about 30 minutes from Bacalar in a very private area. The water by the home was a bit rough to swim the days we stayed due to the strong winds but it was beautiful. The hot tub at night was wonderful. Esteban was very helpful and kind.

Host Response

Dear Gerry, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so glad you enjoyed the house, the spacious areas, and the privacy of the location. It’s wonderful to hear that you were able to relax in the hot tub and enjoy the beauty of the lagoon, even during a windy week. We would love to welcome you back to Bacalar for another memorable stay.

Much better than we expected, you had everything you could need.

Host Response

Dear Jorge, We are very happy to hear that the experience exceeded your expectations and that you found everything you needed to enjoy your stay in comfort. That's exactly what we're looking to offer every guest. It will be a pleasure to welcome you again in Bacalar whenever you want to return.

Badi and the whole team was very proactive and helped us well! We had a very good time during our stay and were able to celebrate New Year here.

Host Response

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! ✨ We’re so happy to hear that you felt welcomed and well taken care of during your stay. It truly makes us smile knowing you had a wonderful time and were able to celebrate the New Year at Mi Querido Bacalar 🥂 We would love to welcome you back whenever you wish to return.

Easily the nicest house I’ve stayed at on the lagoon and I’ve stayed at most in this area. Very clean, feels new, lots of natural light and incredible family room with floor to ceiling bay windows. If you’re debating between this and another, this is the one. Kitchen is a bit tight on space but other than that 10/10. For first timers: If you’ve never stayed in this area of Bacalar know that some planning is necessary as you will be somewhat deep inside of the natural reserve. Getting food or supplies of any kind requires a 25+ min drive south into Bacalar proper so pack a cooler with everything you will need for your stay.

Host Response

Hi Jacob! Thank you for your comment. We’re glad to know you enjoyed the house, its cleanliness, natural light, and the family room, it means a lot coming from someone familiar with the area. We also appreciate your note about the kitchen and your helpful tips for future guests staying within the natural reserve. We’d be happy to welcome you back to Mi Querido Bacalar anytime.

Excellent accommodation, the place was identical to the photos, very clean and very good service from Samuel; always very proactive. We loved the lagoon and the kayak service. We recommend it 100% and we will definitely be back.

Host Response

Gracias por tu comentario 😊 Nos da mucho gusto saber que el alojamiento cumplió con lo esperado. Será un placer recibirlos nuevamente en Mi Querido Bacalar. ¡Esta es su casa!

The house is fantastic, with plenty of areas to relax and spend time. It is located within a secluded gated community which is filled with nature. The lagoon is only a staircase down from the house and has plenty of space for water activities. The house is a bit far from the main attractions in Bacalar, but it makes up for it in peacefulness. We visited in August, and there was a fair amount of mosquitos, so we spent more time inside that we had anticipated, but the house is wonderful. Internet is fast, water pressure and temperature is great and air conditioning works perfectly. The host is super attentive and is always available to cater to all needs. Highly recommended.

Host Response

Thank you for your comment. We’re glad you had a comfortable and enjoyable stay and that the setting allowed you to truly relax. It’s great to know the experience met your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back to Mi Querido Bacalar.

The house is nice, but it's not Bacalar, and the lagoon doesn't match the photos. It's another very remote area. We were without electricity and cut off for a long time because the phone signal isn't good either. The air conditioning in the living room didn't work well, and it was very hot. There were many insects of all kinds. They try to provide good service, but I wouldn't go back

Hi Sarai. Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback, as it helps us identify areas where we can improve. We will take your comments into account as we continue working to enhance the guest experience.

Great place to stay for families/friends. Absolutely gorgeous 😍 ! The house is located in a natural reserve so you're surrounded by nature. If you're looking for peace and calm this is the perfect place. The lagoon is beautiful. The house and kitchen are well equipped, beds are very comfortable. The staff is friendly and always responsive or here when we asked for something. I would definitely go back if I have the occasion.

Beautiful house, but feels like a beautiful prison. This is a hard review to write, but an honest one. The house itself is gorgeous. Architecturally stunning, serene, and with decor that gives the impression you’re about to have a luxurious, peaceful experience. But what’s hidden beneath the surface, what wasn’t disclosed, is what made this stay incredibly difficult and stressful. Before arriving, I was told that due to rains, the road to the house was inaccessible. They arranged a boat to take us from the dock, which I initially found charming, until I realized the boat was our only way in and out, and the rains weren’t the issue at all. There is an ongoing dispute over land access, and the road is essentially cut off permanently. There is no way to access the home by car, something that should be clearly disclosed before booking. Upon arrival, we found a house that looked beautiful but wasn’t prepared for guests. It wasn’t clean, the air conditioners were off and the air smelled

The entire Mi Querido Bacalar team was excellent in their care and service. Great place, very private, with ample spaces and many areas. They offered us food service and it was very good, and the sailboat ride they offered us was also very cool. The best thing is that all these services are provided by them, so everything is easy. For group vacations and looking to rest and be in a private place, I definitely recommend it.

The house is new, beautifully decorated, clean and very well equipped. The big problem is that the location listed in AirB&B is erroneous for approximately 30 kms! This is completely unacceptable and has an important negative impact for families like us who had initially planned easy commutes to Bacalar Centro. The location should be corrected to avoid misleading other users who like us, would check the location using the point in the map from the AirB&B listing which is completely wrong. This delayed and troubled finding the place and affected our plans to visit Bacalar Centro.

★★★★★ Amazing Stay at CASA TATI! Staying at CASA TATI was an unforgettable experience! The house is located inside a nature reserve with security at the entrance, which made us feel safe and secluded in the best way. The wow factor hits immediately when you open the door—the living room opens up to breathtaking views of the lagoon. The space was more than enough for our group, and the hot tub was the perfect spot to relax together. We also loved the patio area right outside the kitchen—it was ideal for cooking breakfast and enjoying meals surrounded by nature. On top of that, the host was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend CASA TATI for anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway!

The house is located in a beautiful and incredible private natural reserve. The lagoon and the surrounding jungle are breathtaking. The house itself has all the amenities and commodities that one needs to have to enjoy a vacation with the whole family or group of friends. The house is not really close to Bacalar, but around 35km away without any grocery stores close by. So be sure to bring all the groceries with you before heading out of Bacalar or Chetumal. Given the chance i would definitely return to this beautiful house!

The house is a new and very spacious house. The rooms are great, each with its own bathroom. It is almost half an hour from Bacalar, in an area of the lagoon that is very quiet, little developed. It is convenient to take this into account if they come from Mérida or Cancun, it is before arriving the town of Bacalar. The bad thing was that there we could not see the colors that the lagoon is famous for, they told us it was because there had been some storms the days before. The kitchen is small, but it's beautifully appointed. It would be better if they had a washer and dryer, there was so much humidity that the bathing suits didn't dry. Very attentive to the staff to attend to our questions and requests.

We loved our stay. There is a staff on site- Oswaldo and Alejandra that are there to help out with whatever you need. And they are amazing to have around and definitely spoil you. The place is about 30 minutes north of Bacalar, so it is very secluded but is on the lagoon. Definitely a place just to relax and enjoy the tranquility before heading into town for food or activities. You can purchase meals from them to eat at the house. They prepare it for you. We had breakfast almost everyday and had dinner once. The food is delicious. We saw lots of wild life- monkeys, tapir, coati, and foxes. We used the paddleboards and watched the sunrise every day. It was a magical trip. Will definitely return if we make it back to Bacalar some day.

The house is beautiful even more than in the photos, we had an amazing Christmas with the family, the decorations of the house and all the amenities it offers are the best, we really liked the Butler Oswaldo and the toilet girl Alejandra being always attentive to our needs and respecting our privacy, the breakfast was excellent and all the needs were covered at all, definitely a place to come back to

Host Response

Me encanta saber que disfrutaron Miguel, esta es tu casa. Los esperamos de vuelta pronto!

the house was spotless in clean and amenities, the house looked very nice in the photos , but it turned out to be better. It was a stay for 13 people and everything was perfect. The service of the house was always attentive to what we needed, a house to enjoy privacy. I would definitely stay here again.

Host Response

Esta es su casa, muchas gracias por sus comentarios, nos encantó alojarlos! Los esperamos de vuelta pronto

This house was in an absolutely stunning & private location. We spent most of our time down on the dock enjoying the SUPs, Kayaks, and hammock. It felt like we had the whole lake to ourselves. Extremely private and beautiful. The hosts were very accommodating, responsive, and friendly. They made our stay so easy and always responded within a few minutes. It was great to have full service on site. The house was very large and had some great amenities - we really enjoyed the large living & dining rooms, the amazing rooftop with hot tub, and all of the space for outdoor entertaining. Note that the kitchen is smaller and dated (we did not end up using it), and that there were some strong smells reported from each guest's bathroom drains (though not sure if this is par for the course in such a location). Overall, we loved the location so much that we opted to stay an additional night (and the hosts were so accommodating & helpful in making this happen).

Very attentive

We really enjoyed our stay in the Casa Jero. Everything was beautiful and really clean. Edwin the house caretaker was very attentive. We opted for the food package and were pleased with the food choices. All of our meals were delicious. They would clean the rooms and the house everyday, this is something we did not expect but were pleasantly surprised. We reserved the pontoon boat tour to explore the Bacalar Lagoon and highly recommend it. Eric the captain was really informative and we learned a lot about the region. We definitely recommend staying here and will return.

Concierge (Tania) and staff who lived on grounds (Jose and Letty) were all brilliant and very helpful. Really great place to stay, exactly as described. Highly recommend this home.

Host Response

How well you enjoyed !! we hope to have you back soon! Here they have their house!

Overall a gorgeous and lovely home. The staff was kind and attentive however, there were many rules. Priority amenities (grill, fireplace, hot tub) requested supervision or were unavailable after certain times. We felt very safe in the space as it is gated.

Host Response

Thank you very much for your comments Nathan, they help us to improve our service, we regret that you have felt that we have too many rules, however because of the place where we are we must be careful and take care of it since it is a protected natural reserve. I hope your next visit will be much more pleasant! We wait for you soon!

The house and surroundings are lovely, just as on the pictures, the property was also very clean and the service was good. We rented the house with a group of 12 friends and we really enjoyed our weekend. HOWEVER I rated the property 3 stars for a number of reasons: - Two days before arriving the property sent me an email with a rental contract they wanted me to sign, it contained various clauses including one requiring a credit card for a deposit and one that stated if any of the clauses were broken the property would charge a 20,000 pesos (1,000 usd) fine on the credit card. I got in contact with Airbnb and they told me that I was not obligated to sign the contract as I had not been informed about it beforehand, so keep this in mind in case there is no mention of the contract in the listing. - The property offers a number of services but they are all VERY expensive for Mexican standards. The 'private chef' service at 112 usd per day is sold as being a professional chef, however that is not the case. The food was tasty, but not the quality expected. They offer airport pickup for 250 usd and we paid 100 usd for a mini van for 8 people and they offer a boat tour for 540 usd and we rented a much nicer catamaran and paid 360 usd. - The property also offers very little flexibility in terms of the food and 'chef' service; you have to choose from a fixed menu and you cannot make a single adjustment (just an example: we wanted quesadillas but without mushrooms but we still had to pay for the mushrooms because that's how it came in the menu) and the chef service can only be booked for an entire day, we wanted them to prepare dinner on the day of arrival and breakfast on our last day but that was not possible. On top of that, the portions were definitely on the small side. - They were also overly strict with some of their rules; we wanted to invite a friend who lives in Bacalar to come for dinner and they said that that was not allowed. This made no sense as the house was not even at capacity so after a discussion with the staff he came anyway. Although I completely understand that check out times need to be respected if other guests are coming, it is not nice to be chased out of the house 15 minutes before check-out. A reasonable buffer should be taken into account, as they do in hotels. A final thing to take into account when booking this house is that the 'double' beds in the two rooms for 4 people are actually quite small - fine for a couple to share but not really for friends. The double beds in the other 3 rooms are very large and comfortable.

Host Response

Thank you for your comments, they are helpful to improve our services. Regarding the information about our stay clauses and property rules, you could know them in the corresponding section before booking as well as our additional services that are optional. However, I appreciate your comments so that I can improve and give you an excellent service on your next visit.
