I first read about Xcalak in a fly fishing magazine back in the 90's. (Maybe someday..........) I just had to convince my wife, there would be more than fishing. What a place! Casa Caroline was perfect for our week stay. I had booked ahead, 1 fishing day online. What else? Caroline made sure we got hooked up with boat rides... More

I had been wanting to go to Xcalak for years, but couldn’t convince my wife to go. Then I got her to read the reviews of Casa Carolina on this site, and she agreed to give it a try, with the agreement that she could choose the next vacation. Well, the next vacation she’s choosing is to go back to... More

We stayed at the Reef House which is right next to Casa Carolina but our hosts were Caroline and Bob. They are amazing and the house was very clean. If go come to Casa Carolina you have to try Bob's Margaritas! More

We had read lots of reviews about Bob's Margharita's and they lived up to their coverage. Note: do not have more than 1 ;-) It is a... More

Great Place with helpful and knowlegable hosts. Our trip began in Tulum, then to Lake Bacalar and finally to Xcalak.We were pleasantly suprised with the snorkling, the quiet and beautiful surroundings and even the warm muffins and fresh fruit for our morning breakfasts. We had a fantastic view of the gorgeous water from our top floor room and in the... More

What a gorgeous, well-kept paradise. Bob and Caroline are terrific folks. We wished we'd stayed longer than 3 days. The beauty of the grounds, the layout, the rooms, the view, it's all stunning. Tootsie the wonder-dog will be missed. Getting to Xcalack was not as hard as we'd feared, although it was a big drive from Cancun. It's true that... More
