Houseboats in Mexico and Central America

"-Rooms: clean, but extremely dated. Everything felt wet (damp) in our room (sheets, towels, clothes, etc) we asked for a dehumidifier and they sent one up. It helped a lot but you have to empty the bucket 2-3 times a day which is kind of annoying. The water in the shower takes 5 minutes to even start getting hot. I love taking HOT showers so this was really disappointing for me. -Housekeeping: They do an excellent job cleaning your room everyday & turn down was great. -Food: The food was severely lacking. We are not foodies by any means and are not picky but most of the meals here were subpar. Everything at the buffets were cold or warm at best. If you want an omelet for breakfast prepare to stand in line for at least 15-20 minutes. Hibachi and the steakhouse were our favorite restaurants, although nothing to write home about. Room service was ok but the food was always cold/lukewarm by the time it got to us. -Drinks: they do not start serving alcohol until 11 (some places noon) which was really mind blowing at an all inclusive resort. You can get a pre mixed mimosa at the breakfast buffet but that’s it. For the price you pay it should not be difficult to get a drink before 11am if you so choose. Pool: we are beach people so we didn’t spend much time at the pool but if you want a chair get down there early. People start putting their towels/personal items on chairs before 7am. -Beach: the water was super calm with virtually no seaweed the first few days we were here. "

"This hotel was beautiful and all the staff was nice and accommodating. "

"Overall a very nice place….i would stay here again. Centrally located, but on a quiet street. Happy hour is a nice bonus. Gym is on the small side, but functional "

"The resort is spotless. Staff are so helpful. Grounds aand pool areas are beautiful. "

"The rooms and property were clean, the staff was friendly and attentive, the amenities were great, the location is perfect, and the rates were reasonable."

"The reception is the only area that truly reflects the website photos—everything else is clearly showing its age. Even the gym equipment feels outdated and stuck in a different era."

"I’ve stayed at this hotel many times and it does not disappoint. I love the big rooms and location."

"Very nice historical building just a few blocks from the cathedral. "

"I didn’t use the gym"
