Lovely Mexican hotel walking distance to the central plaza and 15 minute walk to quiet beach club. Cooking facilities could have been better and only one plate provided.

Great stay. As other travellers mention the beds are rock hard. Also we had to ask for a blanket. They are availible if you ask. Pool is nice and location is great in the center. Stayed in superior room with balcony.

Poza Clara is good value for the price (especially as hotels are getting more expensive in Bacalar). We stayed in the junior suite. The room looked better in photographs, but it was OK. Good AC, and surprisingly quiet for a room that faced the street. The bed was very hard. I like a firm mattress, but this bed was so firm it was uncomfortable. A mattress topper would make a big difference in quality of sleep. The kitchenette had the basics. There is no dining or sitting area inside the suite, so it’s basically a regular hotel room with a sink, fridge, and 2 burner cook top. The location is great. Close to the park and lots of restaurants, shops, etc.

Nice staff, and a cool place. Unfortunately there was mildew in the room, and the bed was uncomfortable. I did enjoy the breakfast though.

I liked the location of this hotel. It’s in a quiet area, but only three blocks to the center square. They have a beach club with kayaks included and an on site restaurant. The only thing I didn’t like were the rock hard beds. It made getting a good night sleep very difficult.

This was an absolutely stunning little boutique hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Tons to do in walking distance but I did drive. There is parking at the hotel but it’s a little tight so I just parked on the street. I didn’t know ahead of time that the hotel also had a private lagoon club. You can order food and drinks there that they will send down from the restaurant. This was definitely helpful when all of the other lagoon clubs were super packed on the weekends.

Todo excelente desde la atención y detalles de Perla hasta las instalaciones como la habitación que esta equipada con una cocineta básica y un bonito balcón con hamaca. Lo único que pondría en contra es que algo tenia el agua que tras bañarse los ojos se me enrojecían, como algún tipo de reacción alérgica, desconozco si sea del agua municipal o las tuberías del hotel. Asimismo otro punto en contra es el cobro de $300 para ingresar la hielera al club de playa, debería ser algo que como huésped ya se incluya para mayor disfrute de las instalaciones.

Great people, location and amenities!
The service was very good and the people there were kind, appreciative for our visit and very helpful to us. To pool is very cute and while we did not use it, the people that did seemed to enjoy it. The location is ideal... just a couple blocks away from the main square - close to walk, far enough that you didn't hear all of the noise. Lots of restaurants and bars very close, making it a fun time for us. The only problem was that the bed is very hard and uncomfortable - even getting a mattress topper for extra padding would have made this much more enjoyable. Otherwise, good prices, great service and a wonderful trip.
