Staff was friendly and helpful, offering lower price for double occupancy. Strong wifi and super clean rooms. Conveniently located, within walking distance to attractions.
No breakfast or nearby restaurants, had to walk into town for meals. Bathroom had a bit of a smell.

We had a great time at Balche! The staff was incredibly helpful and made our stay comfortable with their friendly nature. The room was spacious, clean, and had all the comforts we needed. The hotel's location, although not ideal, was made up for by the cheap and convenient taxi service they arranged. The view from the front door of the gorgeous lagoon was a pleasant surprise. Dion, the owner, and his receptionists were informative and fun. Highly recommended!
Would recommend this hotel.

We had an amazing stay at this place just outside the busy area of Bacalar. The owner, Deon, made us feel overwhelmingly comfortable and shared his fascinating journey of living in this magnificent place. The hotel is clean, conveniently located near Cenote Azul and the lake, and within walking distance to the center. Deon provided us with great advice and tips, and the check-in and checkout process was a breeze. Our room was clean and equipped with hot water in both the shower and sink. We enjoyed the comfortable bed, air conditioning, and the fridge in the room. The hotel even provided beach towels for us. a wonderful experience and we will definitely stay here again.
Everything great!

We got great value for our money at Balche. The room was spacious and clean, with all the comforts we needed. The location was convenient, close to the lagoon and within walking distance of some restaurants. The staff treated us like VIPs, helping us with everything and giving us great recommendations. Dion, the owner, was the best host we've ever had!
The breakfast experience could be improved with a wider selection of options.

We loved staying at this friendly and clean place. The rooms were nice, and it offered great value for money. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful. He took the time to give us advice for our trip to Belize. We also received a lower rate than what we had booked because we were only two people in a room for four. The location of the hotel was perfect, just a short distance from a beautiful lake. The family that ran the hotel had put a lot of love into creating an appealing atmosphere, with personal touches throughout. The courtyard was lovely, and during our stay, it was beautifully decorated for the holidays. The rooms featured a wonderful collection of Mexican framed art, and the shower was fantastic with non-stop hot water.
We felt looked after, no complaints.

Clean, quiet at night, personal attention from staff, undergoing renovation, near Cenote Azul and lake, helpful owner.
Nothing, all excellent.

The hotel was conveniently located near Cenote Azul and the lake, making it easy to explore these attractions. The hotel owner was extremely helpful and provided great advice on local activities. Check-in and check-out were effortless. The room was clean and comfortable, with hot water available in both the shower and sink. The presence of air conditioning and a fan helped keep the room cool. a pleasant stay.
The lack of windows in the room made it quite dark, although there was a curtain-covered window facing the hallway. The bedsheets could have been newer.

The owner was super friendly and provided us with great tips and recommendations. The location was convenient, with a public swimming area and the city center within walking distance. the comfortable bed and the provision of beach towels were added bonuses.
We could have used more storage space, as there were only two hangers available. the cleanliness could have been improved, especially in the bathrooms, where we noticed some mold between the tiles.
