“Hotel Blue Turtle presents a modern, clean option a little removed from Bacalar's center. The newness is appealing, with comfortable beds and spacious rooms noted. Though some found the wifi weak and the location best suited to those with a car, the overall impression is one of a well-maintained property with attentive ownership.”

Since the hotel is a bit far from the center, having a car is recommended and the parking on the premises is a huge plus.
