Amazing room, super clean and the shower is like you're showering in the jungle (but with great water pressure). Easy access to the lagoon and we enjoyed having lunch on the patio or deck. Really attentive staff. Just amazing experience. I went with my family and two kids and everyone said they had the best time

Staff were amazing and super helpful with providing activities at the hotel as well as helping book activities like a sailing tour. Rooms are super unique and comfortable, loved the shower. I wanted a small hotel with a dock access on the water, FREE water sports, parking, and close proximity to Bacalars downtown area, Hotel Carolina check all those boxes for an amazing price. The treehouse style rooms are so unique. I couldnt have asked for a better stay.

From check in to check out, every detail is executed well. An amazing small hotel that includes kayaks and paddle boards. The pier was under construction, which was unfortunate timing for us. Our room, however, enabled us to watch the sunrise from the bed. A magical stay.

This is a beautiful place. The staff is helpful and friendly. The rooms are beautiful- it’s just a gorgeous place. We took a kayak out into the lagoon and visited a cenote and then had a swim. The food in the restaurant is delicious. It was a very short stay but we will definitely be back. Absolutely loved it.

Hotel Carolina truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff—from the front desk to housekeeping and the restaurant team—was welcoming, attentive, and always ready to help, including organizing our taxi with ease. The property itself is beautiful, with an incredible lagoon view that made our stay even more special. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. We especially loved the complimentary use of kayaks and paddleboards, which allowed us to fully enjoy the peaceful lagoon. The location is also ideal: about a 20-minute walk to town and roughly 40 minutes from the airport, offering the perfect balance between convenience and tranquility. Overall, this hotel delivered more than we expected, and we would absolutely stay here again. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

The staff were amazing! The view and the food by the bar/palapa was spectacular. The room was very clean, I personally found the bed mattress a bit hard but otherwise the room was perfect. Location was perfectly away from hustle and bustle of town but close enough drive to access all the fun bars and restaurants.
