Hotel Cabañas Safari

The location was great, close to the city and the ruins. The room was as advertised, the beds were regular couple size, the AC worked well, and the bathroom was ok. We didn't get to use the pool, but it looked nice. We did the Temazcal, and it was amazing! (You have to pay for it).

Overall, all hotel could use some maintenance.The outside of the cabins were really rundown, as the common areas of the hotel.

The room was very good, and the proximity of the restaurant and pool were a great bonus.

Surroundings were jungle-like. Amazing experience.

Very nice location…you feel you are in the middle of the jungle. Simple bungalows , but beautiful nature around.

The bed was very nice, and the pool was excellent!!

Sitting on the back porch with my morning coffee, watching the wildlife was a great way to start the day. The staff were always friendly and available. The restaurant was very accommodating and good food. The grounds were beautiful to walk through.

Maybe the option of a coffee pot in the room for us early rising caffeine addicted Canadians.

Nice friendly staff. Beautiful place to stay. Nice swimmingpool.

The location is great— right at the beginning of the road that leads into the Palenque ruins, so you’re at the start of the jungle but still close to town (and you still have phone service and WI-FI connectivity). My room was fairly basic although I loved the little terrace facing trees. And the common areas are lovely. Yes the pool is small but it was very refreshing at the end of the day. And the hammocks and little bed hanging under the trees were so relaxing!

I agree with other reviewers who said the restaurant isn’t very good and is quite expensive (although the staff were lovely.) I had dinner there one night and never went back. Also, I wish the pool opened earlier (it only opens at 9am). And I wish the staff would enforce their rules, because you’re not supposed to drink in the pool or bring coolers but I saw people doing that and being very noisy and inconsiderate. Lastly, I wish they had mosquito nets over the outside hammocks on our private terraces because while my room was quite stuffy (even with AC) it was so perfect outside and I would have slept on the hammock if I had had protection from mosquitoes.

Location is unique as it’s surrounded by trees and bush. Low price for the room.

The room was very basic - a bit disappointing once we got inside. A lot of mosquitos got into the room through cracks in the door frame etc.. difficult to sleep for someone who attracts mozzies. The grounds are cool and it’s probably a nice place to hang out by the pool if we had more time. In saying that, on the day we stayed, the restaurant wasn’t open, and the pool looked pretty stagnant and manky so we didn’t swim. Also after booking we got an email saying we could or should leave our cash at reception, which made everything feel a bit unsecure for me. No safes in the rooms is something to be aware of. The receptionist said it was merely a service they provide but was unnerving to have that suggested imho. But to be fair it was a cheap price so what did we expect?

Excellent location, comfortable cabanas
