Nice little hotel right on the beach. Very nice hostess and staff. Direct access to beach and beach front restaurants. Rooms are small and basic. They only take cash so be prepared.

One of My Favorite Stays in Mexico!

Super clean, fantastic service, comfortable beds with crisp cotton sheets, beachfront with a view to die for. Yes, it's basic but it's also very affordable. Absolutely a gem!

Not what we expected.

The hotel was not as expected. The people running it (apparently a mother and her son) were very nice. They didn't speak Spanish, which is OK. But the first room they took us to had an offensive odor, so they did give us another room, which wasn't so bad. The room appeared to be clean, but was more like a barracks than a hotel room, with board-like mattresses and a very basic shower. We didn't expect much for the money, but were not impressed. On the other hand, it was right on the beach, so the location is good.

We enjoyed the view of the beach and watching the sunset from the balcony. The rooms are adequate, and clean with all of the basic needs. The property could use some signage from the street as there is no way to know it is there unless you are using google maps.

Great value on the beach

Good: Big room with great air con and plenty of hot water in the shower. There is private parking for a couple of cars. Walk out the back door and you're on the beach very close to where the boats leave for the flamingo tours. Covered area on beach with sun loungers and table and chairs - great for an evening drink to watch the sunset! Not so good: Waterproof cover on mattress which made for a bit of a sweaty night's sleep. Other than that the bed was very comfortable.

A simple room in a small 5 room hotel right on the beach. The town of Celestun is friendly to visitors and tourists but not overrun with them. it has a genuine feel of a small Mexican fishing village and visitors intermingle comfortably with the inhabitants. interesting biological reserve adjacent to town has numerous bird and amphibious species, and dolphins can be see swimming near the pier that juts into the ocean where local fishermen and residents gather every day and evening. A great alternative to the resort town and all in inclusive package type of stay.

Simply perfect though took me a minute adjust, but that was the point - a sort of reset from my busy city life. Sleep, eat beach, maybe a kayak/bike trip through the mangroves (see the owner of Cafe Dayad). Not a bustling town when I visited, but not totally quiet, either. The owner & staff were *wonderful*. Thank you!!! 💯😊 The beaches are not perfect but manage expectations and know that the water is great and ideal for ocean water lounging/swimming - once 5 feet into the not-too-wavy ocean - since the sand leading in is half covered with shells. The ocean remains shallow for a solid 10 meters which is nice. I wish the town would maintain the sand a bit better. Celestun was more raw and real than a typical manicured vacation town, which takes a moment to adjust to, and which you grow to love but at first was unexpected. It can be chaotic and is not always clean - unlike the hotel which itself is perfectly clean (and amazingly located). I would love if there was a good way for the guests to have coffee or tea on the property in the morning since Dayad and other spots nearby have unreliable hours. There are some cute and lovely places to eat in town (3 minutes away) but be weary as many places are sub-par. Also, there are two particularly nice places to eat on the water. Very few people spoke English and I don’t speak Spanish but I made do and you will too. Alejandra: thank you!!
