Nice and comfortable! The room was excellent even with a Netflix account! Great location: a few blocks to the Fuerte de San Felipe and a few blocks to the Ecoparque Bacalar, where you can walk on a wooden pier and swim. Friendly staff!

Best place in Bacalar.
Great location, close to downtown and great restaurants. Beautiful facilities, one feels like is in the middle of the jungle. Good wifi, ideal for those remote workers. But what really won my heart was the staff, always willing to help. I will definitely book this place again.

Wonderful stay at Casa Chukum
Our two night stay in Bacalar at Casa Chukum was like a vacation within a vacation during our monthlong stay in the Yucatan. Bacalar’s Lagoon of (at least) Seven Colors – robin egg blue, azure, blue/gray, azul, turquoise, aquamarine, cobalt blue – is nothing less than magical and mystical. But Casa Chukum was pure delight. We were welcomed like family, placed in a spacious second floor room with balcony and stairway to the roof deck, king size bed, very nice bathroom – instant comfort. The breakfast offerings from constant coffee to fruit and juices and a fantastic menu of Mexican and American breakfast favorites was wonderful. The boat ride the staff arranged with Captain George on the good sailboat Harmony was a highlight. Three hours sailing the lagoon, visiting the cenotes feeding the lagoon, swimming in a couple different locations, getting to view a sunset – well, very special indeed. We look forward to a next and hopefully longer visit to Casa Chukum and Bacalar

Wonderful visit to Bacalar
My friend and I took a day trip to Bacalar. The concierge/front desk staff Aldair was extremely sweet, knowledgeable and helped us set up excursions and recommendations even though it was a shorter trip. The rooms were nice and recently renovated, the grounds were spotless and we felt safe and secure the entire stay. If you are going to Bacalar, Casa Chukum is the way to go. 5 stars all the way.

Amazing stay at Casa Chukum
Absolutely loved our stay at Casa Chukum, this place made our trip to Bacalar. The staff could not do anymore for you, excellent service around the hotel and great recommendations! The place has such a lovely family feel with chilled vibes, loved the dogs and cats. The staff really went out of their way to add personal touches to our stay. Rooms are immaculate and well equipped, would also really recommend the breakfast. Thank you to Deborah and her team for such a wonderful experience! I hope that we will be able to visit again.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel In An Amazing Place
We had such a wonderful time at Casa Chukum! Deborah & Marco are the absolute best hosts and have created an atmosphere at their boutique hotel that is as magical as Lake Bacalar itself. The layout of the hotel is done incredibly well, the staff is amazing, and again, Deborah & Marco went the extra mile for us everyday. This place already has numerous outstanding reviews, it deserves another one!

This place is really beautiful and relaxing to stay at. Close to everything. Debbie is super nice and extremely helpful booking our tours, taxis even our Covid test. I highly recommend this hotel. May be the only thing needs to be improve is the AC, it does get cold enough, but very minor issue. We will stay here again for sure!!
