Nice room, clean. Had one on the lagoon with a small dock with lounge chairs, very nice. Pool and jacuzzi are nothing much and rarely used by anyone. Restaurant food is poor, and main concierge was useless.

The location on the lake is stunning, although manage your lake view from rooms as it’s very obstructed by trees (which are beautiful and osprey land on them). Getting to/from the hotel is only feasible by car, with a barking dog patrolling the outside road, if you do try and walk. The outdoor communal areas were not the most comfortable to and relax in

The hotel is quiet, and the setting is very relaxing. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Although the mattress was a bit hard. The gardens are beautiful and well-maintained. If you are reserving with Expedia, make sure to call the property to check if your lagoon view room is downstairs or upstairs. The downstairs ones have their own private mini-deck.

This hotel is the best of what I love most about Mexico. Clean and thoughtful. Nothing overstated. The staff was genuine and attentive. The location of the hotel is gorgeous. We went out in the kayaks and it was spectacular.
