Following a tradition that began in 1973, Petit Lafitte, formerly Capitán Lafitte, is a small, charming, beachfront hotel. The property is surrounded by palm trees and beautiful gardens and faces an uncrowded white sand beach on the dreamlike Caribbean Sea. In an expanding world of super-sized resorts, the hotel is proudly redefining luxury through personalized attention and excellent meals all served in an inviting and non-pretentious atmosphere. Enjoy the peace and quiet while gently rocking in a beachside hammock. Listen to the sound of the waves while reading a book. Or if it’s action guests are craving, they can always scuba dive or take a sightseeing tour to the ancient Mayan ruins.
