Ok here’s the bad to get it over with. ZERO customer service. No hot water for showers for 6 days. Bed pillows are like cement. Room keys are ridiculous…outdated..need to be updated. Property has lots of outdoor lighting all night and the room window curtains are very thin and white so the room stays very light all night. Only two towels per room per day. Small bottles of water (2) that does not taste good - not sealed so not sure where it came from…. But they will sell you a sealed bottle at the desk. No toiletries included. The pool always looked cloudy and the hot tub was only hot for 2 of our 6 days. Now the GOOD … very clean rooms that smelled fresh every time we walked in. Never had this in Mexico before. Hands down - the BEST a beach club access with excellent service. Hats off to Sebastian!! Easy access to bathroom from beach club. The breakfast was repetitive but good. Coffee, juice, eggs toast and little potatoes. It got old and you could also get pancakes. But always room to eat when we wanted. We are early risers so most days we had breakfast around 7:30 am. The hotel was mostly quiet….no noise at night. We lost power once at midnight but a generator kicked on quickly so no big deal. A/C worked perfectly as did the ceiling fan. The location of this hotel is fantastic. We met many friendly guests. If it was not for the lousy guest service at the desk… I won’t go into detail…I would’ve rated this higher. We go for the beach and for this I give *****.

The property is impeccably clean and well-maintained, offering a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. While it lacks some wall décor or additional decorations, it remains a comfortable and pleasant space. However, the complimentary breakfast experience was disappointing. Guests are directed to a neighboring hotel across the street, where the staff, aware that the breakfast is free, offer limited options and an unprofessional, somewhat cold service. Additionally, the wait time was longer compared to regular guests of that hotel. The beach beds were also located at the neighboring hotel, tucked away in a corner, far from the main guest areas. To make matters worse, there were no umbrellas provided to shield from the sun, leaving guests exposed to the elements. This made for a less-than-ideal beach experience.

This will be my second and final time at this hotel. I know the rooms are basic and run down, and that’s why it’s inexpensive. But the room reeked of mothballs so badly, and the small windows don’t have screens on them, so it was impossible to air the room out. Items that stayed in my suitcase the entire trip (this was a two night trip at the end of a longer visit in the region) smelled like mothballs when I came back home too, it was that strong. Then the parting shot was at checkout, when the front desk person deigned to look up from her phone to see what I wanted. I asked nicely if she could call for a taxi. Her response: we don’t do that. We walked away and saw taxi’s down the street. It’s a great location, but i can do better, and you can too.

We wanted to stay near North Beach on Isla Mujeres. We also couldn't afford places like the Casa Del Jaguar. Na Balam is right across the street from CDJ and it's a sister hotel you walk through it for daily included Breakfast and to access the beach. (at less than half the price it's a steal) You also get a "RED BED" a dedicated space on the beach with queen sized red beds one for each room so you never have to worry about a nice place on the beach, you also get a secure bathroom and you're 10-20 steps away from the water. The hotel looks like you're walking into a jungle oasis, it has a lovely pool and hot tub, we didn't use either as the Caribbean was perfect day in and day out. North beach is famous for good reason, it's walkable 200 yards/meters out and still anywhere from knee/waist or chest deep, so refreshing and kind of perfect ! There are good food option on the beach, whether it be from Casa or any of the beach front restaurants all were solid option IMO. Around the corner you get a nice bakery (get there early for the best selection. a 4.9 rated burger place Pinchos, good burrito place Beach-in Burritos & more. You're also a short walk to the popular Hidalgo street ( & by short I mean 5 mins 11 from ParadICE Gelato the far end of the strip and next to the municipal square. We happened to hit Isla during Carnival it was loaded with street celebrations and we never felt unsafe. Value was good not great for food, and the food was good very good everywhere.

Great little hotel, beach bed access is understated on here. Staff was all incredibly kind, went above and beyond. Noise, like others said, is really the only issue I can think of, however it is thatched roofs, so it is to be expected. Would definitely stay again!

This place is beautiful, quiet and has my kind of vibe. If you're looking for a larger resort/condo accommodation you won't like Na Balam. It's more laid back here. They have ten rooms with balconies facing a small pool and hot tub, a good sized shower with a mini fridge, yoga three times a day, and beach access across the street at Playa Norte. The restaurant was a bit pricey but fantastic. The staff is lovely and I was really pleased with our stay.

Property has a lot potential, but the benefits of the location did not outweigh the annoyances/uncomfortable accommodations.

Great location. Comfortable room and laid back, friendly staff. Plumbing facilities were somewhat unreliable, though, and getting water pressure and hot water were a real challenge. Flushing toilet paper on the entire island is not allowed, making for a “different and unique” experience altogether. Other than that, it was great. The grounds are tropical and garden-like, and the rooms were very clean. It has a beautiful yoga studio for those interested, and we slept great. Very comfortable beds. 😊. We would go back. Bring washcloths.
