Oops!We ran out of stays at this resort.Click here to find something better!
Just got back from a 6 night stay at the Explorean Kohunlich. The experience was fantastic with the all inclusive including all the excursions. The service and food was amazing with a different menu everyday. The tour guides were knowledgeable, courteous and also very patient drivers. We went on 4 of the 6 excursions they had planned out for us. 1. Chakanbakan Lagoon evening/night tour: we saw both howler and spider monkeys from our kayak. The sounds from the jungle were incredible. 2. Lake Bacalar: the kayak trip to the beach area was absolutely beautiful. The colors of this fresh water lake rival that of Caribbean ocean. 3. Magical Town of Bacalar and the Blue Hole Cenote: the fort was interesting with the history of the real Pirates of the Caribbean. The best part was relaxing in the Blue Hole Cenote with our life vests and enjoy the water and nature. 4. The Archeological Ruins of Kohunlich: the area was well preserved as it didn't get attacked by the Spanish during the conquest. The masks etched in stone still have some of their original pigmentation. Points for improvement for management: -The rooms were very nice but need some refreshing. Some furniture was in poor condition and the shutter doors were sagging but instead of using braces they cut the bottom of the doors at an angle so they would close. The front porch sitting area with hammock was a nice touch. Bed was very comfortable. -The pool area is really great but needs more loungers for when guests return from excursions. You could double the number of loungers easily and add at least 4 more umbrellas. Summary: loved our stay, the food, the drinks and the service! I would highly recommend this to anyone that wants an adventure rather than just sit at a resort. The newly paved roads made the excursions easy to get to (other when dirt roads were required). Bring repellant and sunscreen. We didn't have any mosquitos but were there in the mosquito off season.
