We came upon Gringo Dave's Resort by chance, and how lucky we are to have found it! We stopped in for a break from driving to the boarder. A tranquil setting beside an azure and turquoise blue lake, with an excellent host, and more than enough space to relax. As soon as we arrived Dave welcomed us, and invited us... More

Lovely, tranquil, CHEAP lakeside cabanas. Beautiful lawn and glittering lake. Very hospitable hosts, simple and comfortable accommodations. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Don't miss dinner at Dona Panchita's...and try her amazing habanero sauce.

We stayed here on the recommendation of some American's who owned a property at Los Dos Ojos. This was by far the best campsite for border crossing I have ever come across, probably one of the best camping grounds I have been to full stop. Dave was incredibly welcoming and whilst we were not aware that there was camping here,... More

My boyfriend and I got there by pure luck. We were in Chetumal looking for a hotel when someone asked us for a pen. Turned out he was one of the partner owners of the place. He recommended us to go there, so we decided to go and check it out. And we were very happy we did. It was... More

We found this place by chance when searching the internet. The path is not marked well by signs, allowing this to be a hidden jewel for campers, tents, and RV'rs. The lush green grass leads right up to the tranquil lagoon offering amazing sunsets and pop up showers. We camped directly on the shore of the lagoon next to the... More

Dave is a great host, the staff and the dogs are very friendly. The location is some hundreds yards from the main highway where the buses (Mayab, collectivos - not the ADO) make a stop. The lake is amazing, the yard is superb. Kayaks and sailing boat (HobieCat) are available for rent. The cabins with a thatched roof are large... More

We loved Dave and Gallo, their place was awesome with cabanas on the lagoon with swimming, kayaks, hobbie cat sailing. We stayed there on our way down to Belize and again on our way back cause we loved it. We had some medical as well as automotive issues while there and these guys went way out of their way to...

What a wonderful experience. Dave was (as usual) a wonderful Host and Capt. Gallo was there to take care of anything we needed. We are a family of four and the two-story cabana on the water fit our needs perfectly. The lagoon is fresh water and crystal clear. We sailed the catamaran to the small islands around the lagoon, just... More

Quaint and clean, variety of things to do and see and at terrific cost. Will go each year if I/we can! Really splendid and close to soooo much amazing stuff! They are huts or cabanas, very artful and peaceful.
