Staff not trained not polite. All surrounded areas dirt and smell really bad. Beach very dirt, rather than clean water mud. Rooms very bad conditions
I have been traveling to Mahahual for solo fishing adventures every year for at least the last 8 years, and I have always stayed at the Cabanas Del Doctor, and I always will! I don't need anything fancy, but for the very reasonable price of a room or cabana here you won't find anything even close to as good. Also, the woman who runs the hotel/cabanas is wonderful, I look forward to seeing her every year. Hope to be back again soon, thank you for everything once again!

Nice & basic place to stay
Adequate room, very sparse. Had to ask the owner/manager how to open the front window as it had a huge & dangerous crack down it. We wanted the sea breeze to flow through the window front window, especially as it had mosquito netting.
Amazing view of the sea from front window.
Good air conditioning.
Quiet at night.
Owner/manager came across as annoyed and irritated by our arrival, thankfully this changed during our stay.
Mahahual was very busy but it was the Easter holiday.
The beaches are covered in rubbish, plastic everywhere including in the sea.
Everyday we watched people clear away the masses of seaweed on the beach, presumably as it's unsightly for the tourists, these same people simply ignored the rubbish/plastic.
Lots of loud music blairing from cars & bars so beware where you stay.
Other than the bed being a bit firm, my stay was quite comfortable. The room was clean. the AC was cold. And the shower was hot. The hotel has a beachfront area with a pier directly across the street which is a continuation of the malecon. There are numerous restaurants and beach clubs a fairly short walk away.

Tardaron para atenderme en recepción y la a habitación tenía muchas hormigas.
The location is excellent. The property is kept clean and secure. It's a budget beach hotel so it does attract people of all ages. Some stay up and party while others stay in and sleep. I was woken up a couple of nights by loud drunk talk but it wasn't a deal breaker.
So....there are multiple types of dwellings. The cabanas have no AC and look sparse inside. We "upgraded" to a room with AC. Very sparse...one towel each, one trash can, a "ketchup packet" of shampoo and a 5cm cube of soap. We booked the cabana on this app for $40/night...didn't catch the lack of AC...the AC room was $50/night. When we upgraded they charged $15 extra per night...seemed expensive at $65/night. Also the beach at front was pretty dirty. Snorkel by the light house...it's a lot better.
Great access to the water with excellent swimming and steps off the dock into the water. Very clean unit and friendly staff. My only suggestion would be to add a small refrigerator to the unit. Great value overall and will always return to Las cabanas Del Doktor

Decidímos irnos debido a los zancudos que aún con repelente te picaban, adicional a que es un lugar caluroso que necesita forzosamente aire acondicionado.
Solo estuvimos unas 2 horas y no aguantamos.

La recomiendo si solo deseas llegar a dormir y buscas algo accesible en costo. No me volvería a quedar ahí porqué esta alejado de lo centrico, en la parte descuidada y no atractiva de Mahahual, ademas la Sra de Recepción es cero amable, responde de mala gana y no es servicial. La habitación tiene solo un ventilador de techo q suena mucho y pareciera q va a caerse en cualquier momento porqué se movia bastante ademas de ser insuficiente ya que no ventila, estaba mas fresco afuera q adentro, asi no se puede estar, y habia ademas muchas hormigas grades por varias partes.
Die Hütte an sich war ausreichen ausgestattet und bedingt durch den Wind hat auch die Tatsache nicht gestört, dass es keine Klimaanlage gibt. Leider war ein Fenster kaputt, so dass man es weder richtig öffnen noch schließen konnte. Gegenüber ist leider ein Fischereihafen, was durchgehen zu einem unangenehmen Geruch geführt hat. Auf dem schönen Strohdach der Hütte war eine Plane gesonnt, die beim Wind (vorallem nachts) durchgehend ein lautes Geräusch gemacht hat. Ebenfalls gab es recht viele kleine Ameisen im Bereich des Waschbeckens.
