Casa Hormiga is a beautiful boutique hotel located in the heart of Bacalar. The hotel's name, which means "Ant House," reflects the local belief that Bacalar is a sacred place where Mayan gods lived and where they observed the behavior of ants. This unique concept is reflected in the hotel's design and decor, which blend Mayan elements with modern touches.

The hotel features spacious and stylish rooms that are designed to provide a comfortable and relaxing stay. Each room is decorated with natural materials like stone, wood, and local textiles, and is equipped with all the necessary amenities. Some rooms have private balconies or terraces with stunning views of the lagoon.

As a guest of Casa Hormiga, you’ll have an exclusive spot at La Playita Bacalar, Bacalar’s favorite restaurant and beach club, only a short walking distance from the Casa Casa Hormiga's central location makes it an ideal base for exploring Bacalar, including the beautiful lagoon, the San Felipe Fort, and local restaurants serving delicious cuisine.
