Xoot Kaana Villa Vista Laguna

There were so many things to like about this property. We visited for our honeymoon and it was a perfect spot to experience Bacalar, We rented the room that is directly above the dock and next to the restaurant and it was a great location. We walked right out of our room into the restaurant area and out onto the dock. Our private balcony had a fantastic view so we spent a lot of time up there when we weren’t in the water. The only downside to this location is that at night the restaurant got a little bit loud on the weekend, during the week, it was quiet by 10 PM, which was perfectly fine by us. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. My Spanish isn’t great, but they were very patient with me at the restaurant as I often struggled a little to translate things - despite that everything always came out perfect. The pool area was beautiful but we never used it personally. We estimated it took about 10 to 12 minutes from the resort to the main road and then another five into town. We went to town every day that we were there and back and had a great time. Special thanks to the restaurant servers and to Blanca at the front desk for being so sweet and helpful!

The road to get to the property was easy enough for us to traverse in our higher clearance rental but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend a small vehicle unless you are a good driver on bumpy roads. The dock needed some minor repairs but I actively saw the owner getting quotes on it, and they were doing active repairs the whole time! Awesome! You can see the love they are putting into this property.

This villa has one of the best you can get of bacalar lagoon - the bath in the balcony also made the stay truly fantastic ! The staff was also really nice and helpful :) !

The food at the restaurant could be better and cocktails would be appreciated but the staff was always really nice :)
