“Keep coming back”

Reviewed 10 May 2013

Balamku has been the nicest out-of-the-way hotelito along the Mahahual beach for quite a few years. The fact that it is solar and has an ecologically "pure" footprint makes it our favorite. We live in Bacalar, about an hour south, and sometimes feel the need to spend a few nights comforted by the sea air and surf sound. We do... More

“Wonderful, peaceful B&B on the (still ) unspoiled coast of Quintana Roo.”

Reviewed 6 April 2013 via mobile

Our 2nd stay was a bit shorter but certainly worth it! This time we brought some friends with us. After a warm welcome we enjoyed some beautiful days on the beach sitting by the sea wich was comfortably warm. But if you're a more active person there is lots to do to! Just take a kayak out to sea, snorkeling,... More

Always wonderful when guests return...thank you for loving what we do here! More

“Lovely stay”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

We stayed 3 days in March, and wished we had planned for a longer stay. We had a fabulous casita right on the beach (apparently it's the honeymoon suite), spotless and very comfortable, with a little porch, some beach chairs and hamacs right in front. The included breakfast was delicious (fresh fruits, pancakes, eggs), the staff very friendly. They will... More

It was our pleasure meeting fellow Canadians! Thank you for your comments. Always helpful for future travellers. The Costa Maya is a haven for nature and sea grass beds are a welcome gift for fishing ...birds and people! The clear area in front of balamku is a natural walkway further into the sea for swimming. thanks again for your kind... More

“Gorgeous Spot”

Reviewed 22 March 2013

We came over from Ireland to enjoy some tropical sunshine. We very much enjoyed Mexico and then the best part was Balamku. It has stunning views and was very peaceful. The beach is gorgeous and the room ( cabana or whatever you call it ) was fabulous. Immaculately clean and very comfortable. We loved the eco ethos which all functioned... More

Just spent one night here but had to tear myself away! Wish we could have stayed longer. Beautiful, clean beach with comfortable rooms and chilled out feel.
