When we first arrived at the hotel we were disappointed because when we booked with thought that the hacienda was much more updated and the food was better quality. The services and cleanliness overall good! Just disappointed because the beach was not near the hotel, hotel was a bit outdated and the quality of foot was not the greatest. The pictures on the reservation showed much better food presentation.

If you are checking out this property, then it’s likely because of the price. I thought it would be a charming old, yet well maintained hotel. It’s architecture is charming, but the hotel is NOT well maintained. We had days of the AC not working with humid and blazing hot weather. They do not have a mini split, they have an old central ac that fails. I was warned by someone that took their family here and I didn’t listen. I took a chance and it was very unpleasant. The day before we left the AC failed and after waiting from 10pm to 1am and the maintenance guy never showing up, we were moved to another room. It was around 2am and we were exhausted. Guess what happened next? The next room didn't have a working AC either. And to add insult to injury, the front desk lady tried to imply the AC failed in the first room cause we touched the thermostat. HA! Even though ALL the rooms had non working ACs and everyone kept losing water due to their old systems losing power, she had the audacity to blame the guest. The only good thing about this hotel was the service provided by the restaurant and bar staff. They are kind and polite. But the hotel has leaks everywhere, broken tile, old mismatched furniture, failing air conditioners, old towels, and practically no parking. We had good food choices ONLY on Saturday’s Fiesta Mexicana. When my relative went 3 years ago, at least the food was good. Now it’s only once a week. Spend a little more and have a pleasant stay elsewhere

only one restratrant, not three. the other one has the same food as the buffet and if you want other food you have to pay an additional price, even if your all inclusive. one night it was Mexican buffet night, they had tacos (very good) I asked the waiter if there was guacamole he said no, you have to pay $5 (usd) for a side of guacamole, which is crazy . a lot smaller than the pictures show, on the website it looks like it has two pools however there is only one, just a lot different than expected especially for the price.

The place looks very cozy and charming. The buffet was good and appetizing. The pool was full of people on the weekend I went. The room was clean but there was a distinct old musty smelly. The door latch lock was missing and the sliding doors to the terrace didn't lock.

Very old property. Very rough and very old outdated rooms. Dirty floors, needs all new renovations in rooms. Very small uncomfortable beds and pillows. Servers, bartenders and staff were amazing and so friendly and fun. Small hotel very traditional Mexican feel but old! Very close to lots of restaurants, beach, marina, airport, downtown all close or all within 10mins! Poolside room 3rd floor #345 we stayed in and you can hear the traffic, hotel is on a main very busy loud road. Only one restaurant for everything all 3 meals a day and buffet style which is always Mexican food. Wouldn’t stay here again. But the staff were all so lovely which made the trip.
