Very comfortable, cozy and welcoming. Super friendly and attentive staff. Breakfast option was convenient and food delicious. Clean room and comfortable bed. Casa Hormiga was perfect for us after a long day of touring the area, lagoon, nearby cenotes. Massage facilities and staff are superb! Thank you to the Casa Hormiga's staff for all your attentions, you made us feel like home!

I loved my stay at Casa Hormiga. Everything was excellent, including the fantastic cocktails from the bar, the delicious food with lots of vegetarian options, the quiet pools and the comfortable room. We were there during a slow month so the hotel wasn't full, which meant we had the pool all to ourselves and it never felt busy at breakfast either. The city is walkable from here but it's not right in the middle of the noisy areas either.

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Casa Hormiga. The pristine grounds, excellent service, and unique activities like the "House Ritual" with the Cacao Ceremony and massage made it a standout destination. The rooms were spacious, room service was good and the location very walkable. Special shout-out to Ruben, who was hilarious and extremely welcoming. I’ll be back one day!

We had a great stay. The staff, public areas, food pool etc amazing. It’s a beautiful property our only issue was the bed honestly. There are only queen size beds (we knew but hoped for comfort), but honesty the beds were not the most comfortable. The lobby, pool area and dinning are beautiful. We just felt like the rooms were nice but fell short. The sink in the bathroom is a odd height a lot higher than most. The rooms are a great size more than enough room for a king size bed. Overall we loved the location and our stay.

Not only was the property lovely, the food was delicious and the staff were above and beyond kind and helpful. While I was there, I needed medical attention. The staff worked as translators with the hospital, set up taxi rides, and checked in on me frequently. So generous. The pool area is clean and calming. My hammock on the porch, alluring. The beds were comfortable and the showers hot. No complaints at all. Casa Hormiga is quiet and peaceful. It is only a few blocks to the lake or the plaza... very convenient. I'd stay there again any day.

This hotel is almost there

This hotel really needs to start offering laundry service, heat the pools, and have a dinner and room service option for guests. That would make the experience much better. Neighborhood is loud so maybe some white noise options in the room would make the experience more pleasant as well

Si pudiéramos ponerle 6 estrellas lo haríamos. El hotel es hermoso!! Pero la atención…. La atención es verdaderamente excelente y muy cálido. Se preocuparon por nosotros desde que llegamos hasta nuestro check out. Volvería a ir muchas veces más. Gracias por sus atenciones y por la sorpresa de cumpleaños a mi marido.

This was a spectacular surprise. They have created a natural and very tasteful sanctuary with their hotel that is very special. We tried the temazcal ceremony and it was an amazing experience lead by Ronny. Special mentions go to Rubén and Rodrigo on the front desk for their professionalism and understanding of what great service really means. Bravo Casa Hormiga!!
