Boca de Agua Bacalar

Hotel Boca del Agua is quite literally an oasis. Tucked away in the serene beauty of Xul-Ha, this place is a dream come true for anyone seeking peace, connection with nature, and genuine relaxation. From the moment I arrived, I felt a deep sense of calm and comfort. The surroundings are absolutely stunning—crystal-clear waters, lush greenery, and thoughtfully designed spaces that blend seamlessly with the environment. The food is exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love and care. Every meal felt like a treat. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and supported throughout my stay, which allowed me to fully unwind and enjoy the magic of the place. Whether I was swimming in the turquoise waters, lounging by the water’s edge, or simply soaking in the stillness, everything about this experience left me feeling refreshed and restored. Hotel Boca del Agua is more than a getaway—it’s a return to self. I can’t wait to come back.

Incredible experience. Place, staff and architecture mach together to deliver one of my life’s travel highlights. Natural setting is spectacular. We had the luck to see a wild toucan! Really enjoyed morning swims in this remote part of the Bacalar lagoon. Food was delicious and staff attentive. Architecture spectacular. I am already planning my next trip to Boca de Agua!

We had the most incredible stay at Boca de Agua! The location is complete paradise, you get the authenticity of the jungle and the wilderness of the bacalar mangroves and lagoon - but with complete luxury. The treehouses are stunning, you’ll have the most peaceful rest stilted within the jungle and the restaurant is incredible - the menu alone is one to come and try. From breakfast through to dinner the dishes were packed with flavour. We opted for the cooking class with Chef Sergio and so glad we did as we got to learn how to professionally prepare ceviche with the on site grown ingredients. And in our opinion, the sunrise kayak tour is NOT to be missed. Witnessing the day starting and the sun rising while paddling in a silent cenote was a memory we will never forget. A peaceful few hours at the lagoon pier is another moment that will stay with us, you really see that you are in one of the most beautiful places on earth. Lastly there has to be a mention for the staff- every single person from front desk, to bar and restaurant and housekeeping went out of their way to make our stay unforgettable, right down to one staff member even leaving us written recommendations for our next stop in Mexico. They were genuinely kind and made our trip so special. Thank you Boca De Agua - we WILL definitely be back!
