+Loved this place, perfect place to relax. Friendly older owner and staff. Paid 630 pesos/night single bed with patio overlooking the lake. Listen to the jungle/lake sounds all day & night. Fast WiFi, hot showers, locked parking, breakfast for a reasonable price. Rent kayaks also.

“When they say "on the lake" they mean it! It was about 3 meters from the lake.”
+Incredible location, 3 meters from the lake. I had a balcony overlooking Lake Catemaco. Meals were extra, but wholesome and tasty.

“It was an incredible experience because of the beautiful people who own it and the exquisite view!”
+La Cabana del Lago was everything we expected. It was absolutely lovely to wake up to such a beautiful view of Lake Catemaco and the family just made our stay as comfortable and as lovely as anyone could ever expect! Mrs. Lina Bravo Murcia, her husband, her granddaughter Samantha, and her son Alberto were an absolute joy to spend time with. They were generous with their time and stories! We are so grateful! Also, they prepared dinner for us even though the restaurant was technically closed. It was nice to have a warm meal after a long drive from Orizaba! Checkout was super easy and we were able to say our final goodbyes and take pictures with the family!
−The room was a bit small but the balcony made up for it. Also, the pillows are a bit hard, and the AC unit is a bit small for the bedroom. Having a fan for guests could really make the stay a lot more comfortable, particularly in 100-degree weather. Otherwise, this was absolutely delightful and we are more than grateful to the family for our lovely time!

“Recommended but with care.”
+The place is amazing, by the lake, not touristic village, amazing for families and couples, it's the best place to stay around Catemaco.
−The price the hotel asked me to pay was substancially around 8X higher than the price mentionned in the reservation. We called booking and they were not able to resolve the issue. On top of that, the owners were not open to discuss the price. Which let me having no choice than to book this place anyways and pay that huge amount, having no other available place at a decent price around. This was overall very stressing experience for me and I did not find fair that I had to pay another amount than the price guaranteed in the booking. I did not like especially the non empathic way the owners dealt with the situation to actually find a compromise for the price. The owers were not speaking to me the whole stay whereas they did chat all the time with other guests from Mexico, this also can be improved.
