We discovered this place on a trip called, "Hidden Maya Cities of the Yucatan". It is located just off the main highway between Escarcega and Chetumal on the way to Calakmul. We were scheduled to be there for two nights, and it is a place listed as having no telephone number. It also has no air-conditioning. Our doubts disappeared when... more

Puerta Calakmul's website is hard to find on the Internet. Judging from others' comments on Tripadvisor there have been difficulties in contacting the property. We mentioned this to the manager and he provided us with this website: It is http://www.puertacalakmul.com.mx. We stayed for two nights in April with children aged 6 and 9. The cabinas are very rustic - just... more

Stayed here on Dec 12th.07. First off, we were quoted 110 dollars on the website, but when we arrived we were told it was 120 dollars..So that was a big disappointment to start off with. The accomodations are great, had a nice place with no bugs and everything was clean. The meals were a bit overpriced for mexico standards, but... more

My wife and I stayed there in early October 2007 on our way from Belize to Tulum and we really enjoyed it. In general, for the individual traveller it is really time-consuming (and not necessarily cheaper) to get to Calakmul by bus and taxi. So we chose to rent a car in Chetumal (e.g. at the Holiday Inn). Driving is... more

This place was a big disappointment. All right, so it's probably better than "terrible", but I'd rank it worse than the next category ("Okay, but some problems"). I simply can't understand how it got such good reviews from others! I had high expectations. The website made Puerta Calakmul look like a paradise, with plenty on offer in the way of... more

We had a group of six that stayed there twice, each for two nights about a week apart in November. The hotel is easily found at km 98 on the highway between Chetumal and Escarcega -- large sig on the highway. You have to go through an entrance gate and pay 40 pesos per person and 40 pesos per vehicle... more

The Hotel Calakmul is a great choice for travelers visiting the archaelogical sites in the Rio Bec region: Chicanna, Becan, Hormiguero, etc. It's about 45 minutes from the entrance to the Calakmul biosphere, but it's probably the best value in the region. The rooms are clean and modern. Outside of each room there's a covered area with a table and... more

This is a really pretty place to stay and is the closest hotel to the ruins at Calakmul. The cabin we stayed in was beautifully decorated and there was a good, hot shower which is always a bonus! It is also a great place to stay to spot wildlife. However, the cabin was absolutely infested with rather large, winged bugs.... more

There are some really nice things about this place, but they still have some bugs to work out. So, for some it might be great and others hellish. Good 1. Best location for going to Calakmul short of camping. It is at the turn off from highway 186 (note, there was a military check point on 186 here two days... more
