The villa was in an amazing location. Central enough to Bacalar center but far enough for quiet. Edwardo was an amazing host! The room was extremely clean and bigger than expected. The breakfast was delicious and fresh every day. Edwardo was...

Villa Marilu is a beautiful place to get away from the busy tourist areas. The king bed was a little firm but comfortable and we slept well. The shower had great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The private patio overlooking the lagoon was...

Stayed here for 3 nights and had a great experience! The room and grounds were clean and well taken care of. The dock on the lagoon is shared with only the 3 other rooms on the property, I was able to find plenty of alone time to use it. Eduardo...

Beautiful property. Great location. And Eduardo the host is exceptional! He had great recommendations for dinners, activities, and even booked a tour for us. We plan on staying here again. Can’t say enough good things about it!

Host was amazing and very helpful, property is clean and beautiful. Enjoyed our stay but wish we would have found something closer to town. It's about a 15/20min walk to town which we did no problem and a taxi is about 70 pesos so not bad at all.

Wonderful B&B on a peaceful stretch of the lagoon shore, yet close to everywhere you need to be in Bacalar! Eduardo was a great host, both informative about the best places to see and eat in town, and attentive to all requests. So glad I found...

Villa Marilu B & B is an exclusive and quiet guest house alongside the beautiful Bacalar lagoon. Our 4 rooms are ideal for couples, comfortable and air-conditioned. The common area is equipped with sofas, board games and books. A path lined with bamboo leads to the dock, where you can find lounge chairs and hammocks. An ideal place to relax. Swim or cool off in the turquoise waters of the lagoon right from our dock. Appreciate the sunrise from here, the starry nights or the full moon over the lagoon. Have a ceviche and a margarita on the dock to enjoy your stay and the view to its full potential. Disconnect from your daily routine :). Let yourself be pampered with a professional massage. Total relaxation! Explore the lagoon in one of our kayaks, on a sail boat or private pontoon. Visit bird islands, a natural reserve nearby or venture to the cenote de la bruja, with more than 100 m it is thought to be the deepest in the lagoon! Discover the stromatolites or living rocks which are the 1st organisms to produce oxygen and are one of the oldest forms of life on Earth!
We are located right on the shore of Bacalar lagoon, away from the hustle and bustle of the town and yet only a 5 minute drive from the city center with its picturesque craft shops, regional and international restaurants, ice cream parlors and small supermarkets. Discover the history of Bacalar, the pirates, Mayans and Spaniards in the Fort of San Felipe and its interesting museum. Bacalar makes a good starting point for day trips to the Caribbean beaches of Mahahual (1h) and the less visited Mayan sites of Kohunlich and Dzinbanché (1h). There are good connections to Cancun Airport (5 hrs) and the Chetumal Airport (30 min). Chetumal, the "cradle of miscegenation" and capital of the State of Quintana Roo, offers the amenities of a large city such as large supermarkets, cinemas, shops and a beautiful waterfront in Calderitas with many seafood restaurants. From here, buses leave for Belize and Guatemala, or ferries to the islands of San Pedro (the "Isla Bonita" of the Madonna song) and Caye Caulker in Belize.
