We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Casita Carolina: a cool, fun, quirky place with lovely homely rooms and beautiful gardens right by the lake. The room we stayed in was large in size but small in price (in comparison to other places we stayed in the Yucatan). The room was so comfy, it felt like staying at your... More

Funky little resort dripping with charm. Our room was small, clean, cheap with interesting art. No a/c but a good fan and comfortable bed. Friendly guest host, wifi, great gardens and swimming pier. Walk to restaurants in town.

Casita Carolina's is a wonderful experience. The rooms are modest, clean and whimsically decorated by local artists. This magical place has beautiful gardens and grounds located on the waterfront. Easy access to swimming, kayaking and exploring the lagoon. A huge benefit is the location of Casita Carolina's. Although it has no restaurant on premise it is within walking distance to... More

This place is great for very easy going travers who are are not looking for hotel amenities. If you prefer the convenience of a standard hotel, this is probably not the place for you. We stayed 2 nights in the Palapa. It has a charming look, but is not high on standard hotel amenities. I misunderstood when booking the room... More

Casita Carolina is a special place. The accomodations are quirky, mostly spacious and with lovely, artistic but homely decor. The garden is wonderful and its easy just to hang out there and relax and talk to other guests and Carolina. Swimming in the laguna is a wonderful experience - make sure you get out a bit to the white sandy... More

Casita Carolina ,is so beautiful that we stayed 5 nites when our intension was to stay a only 2 nites. The lake is extraordinary. The water is a gorgeous turquoise blue and only 3 feet deep all the way out to the middle, so it's perfect for swimming. The owner is American so we could speak English and clearly get... More

I stayed one night at Casita Carolina and was very glad I did. They have a huge garden which feels pretty close to paradise... My room had everything a traveller needs and there were some other nice places to sleep on the property. There is a nice place outside where you can meet other travellers, or discuss with the owner... More

We decided that Bacalar lake and Casita Carolina were so wonderful that we would stay 2 nights instead of 1. We spent the whole day relaxing on the lake pier and in the lovely peaceful garden. We took the onsite kayaks out on the lake which was really lovely. We paid 100 pesos for approx 1 hour. Our room was... More

We were planning to stay for only one night, but the reasonable price and the amazingly beautiful lakefront view convinced us to stay two more days. The decor is retro chic, a good reflection of the owner, Caroline, who quickly makes one feel at home. I would go back.

Casita Carolina was the cheapest accommodation we found around Laguna de Bacalar and the place was perfect, clean and quiet. We stayed in a cute little campervan close to the lagun for 250 pesos per night.
