We had a great stay at the hotel. The hotel is located right next to the beach and have an amazing view. The stuff are very friendly and smiling. We got a free upgrade to sea-view room, since they had some available. The rooms are big and very clean.

It was a terrible experience. The room was terrible. The gas pilots on the stove were open . I noticed it and reported. Thank God I smelled the gas. The propane tank was leaking gas and I told them to remove it.

The check in process was easy. All staff was very helpful. The receptionist even assisted me in carrying luggage. The beach club was awesome. Great food and drinks. Abraham was very hospitable and energetic. We will definitely return to this hotel and recommend it to anyone interested in a great location.

The hotel is right on the beach. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful even with my limited Spanish. The beach is very relaxing and the water is clear and seaweed free. This is a very family friendly environment. I highly recommend renting a car and come to Mahahual for a few days if you’re in Tulum or Cancun. Also this hotel is close to Chacchoben and Bacalar if you want to go explore for the day.

The staff at El Fuerte were definitely a highlight — very helpful, kind, and supportive throughout our stay. The rooms are a bit outdated, but they were clean and perfectly fine for what you’d expect at this level. There was a slight humid, musty smell at first, but it went away quickly once the AC was running. Overall, I’d rate it about 2.5 stars. Nothing fancy, but comfortable and pleasant — and I’d stay here again.

The view was nice. The room clean. The bathroom was not the best. Limited hot water and odd setup. The toilet getst wet every time you shower because it’s just open. Also it says there are laundry facilities but there are none. You have to walk a few blocks to a service that will wash for you and give it back to you in the afternoon. Staff was nice.

The room was great! I had a balcony overlooking the sea. I sat in the living room half the night just looking out the window at the well lit beach, while pretending to do work on my laptop. Downstairs, the restaurant had a nice vibe. I had the grilled shrimp tacos. They were amazing! I should have gotten an order for the road! Everything was great, from someone from reception walking me to my room, to the easy on-site parking. I will definitely be back.

The staff was amazing! Very friendly and quick to help with anything we needed. I also liked the location very much! My disappointment was the Wi-Fi did not work. We were working remotely so this was very important. The Wi-Fi at hotel was out 95% of the time. They also lost power on our last day. Outside of that, the property and rooms were clean but felt very outdated and run down. I guess typical in a beach town but did make it feel as though we over paid for the accommodation. The bed was comfortable but pillows felt very hard and stiff. They also only gave top sheet with no comforter so was very chilly at night without a blanket.
