Very Good

Location, location, location. Close to shopping, restaurants, pharmacies. Room was spotless, lots of hot water. Restaurant food was the best yet. We have been coming here for many years and the a-la-carte menu very much improved. The staff are incredible, friendly, helpful, polite, they make us feel like we are being welcomed home. The beach is amazing, great for walking every day.
The staff are amazing,very friendly and they remember what you like!
Leonardo was always smiling and so kind!

Liked: Cleanliness
We reserved a Kingsized bed room and received a 2 bed room instead but decided to keep it. The room was clean, the housekeeping staff were very good and the bottled water supply was kept full. Strangely, there was a coffee machine and ice bucket in the cupboard. No coffee was supplied (except the morning when we were checking out) and there was never an ice machine anywhere to be found. Others told us the same story. Suggestions? A small fridge would be helpful, plus packets of coffee for the supplied machine. The hotel staff are great, the ambience is one of a slightly “tired” hotel and certainly caters to Mexicans. The food is “good”, salads and fresh fruit superb. The location on the beach is very good as one can walk either way. Overall, the stay was a bit disappointing.
We have stayed at the Holiday Inn many times and plan to return next year. The staff including all services we know by name. We feel like we are family . They make us feel special. We made new friends again this year. We will miss Cleophas greatly when he retires. The hotel is always clean, there are plenty of food choices, the activities are varied , the employees are always the reason we come back and never consider any other hotels.
We had a great room with amazing views. The staff were very attentive. We enjoyed the Saturday evening entertainment. Nice stay!

Everything was great. Would be nice to have another restaurant, too many buffets. Our room on the waterfront clearly had a water leak and the dry wall was cracking and there was mold. That should be fixed. Thank you

The resort was run down and the food was the same every night. Would have been nice to have a burger shack outside where you dont have to change.
