The front desk is so poor, unfriendly and have the worst attitude one can imagine, particular a lady by the name Babiana. Waiters and cleaning staf are very friendly, maybe they should swap places. Front desk staff also have no idea as they want to charge you differently for the same things, eg calls. WiFi is poor, actually non-excisant. A/C's... More

Would visit again. Clean and comfortable. Food was good. Staff very helpful and friendly!!!! Made many new friends. If you are there to dive or snorkel this is your place. If you are looking for night life this is not. Things quiet down after 10pm. Can't wait to go back! :-)

Extremely helpful and courteous staff, assisted us in rooming us close-by our travel friends. Location is perfect and not too far from town, 5 min. taxi ride or 20 min walk. Great swim beach and dive shop and very helpful. Juan Carlos will help you set up exactly what you want in dive trips

Hotel is in a good location. Our room was huge and very comfortable. It was beautifully decorated and we had two bathrooms and a kitchen, dining area and living space which made things very nice.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Our fifth stay was our best. If you need a Jeep rental, a good meal, just ask the sweetheart concierge. I would HIGHLY suggest the small cafe six doors down on the same side of the street for authentic Mexican/Caribe food. Diving is just out front, dive operation on premises and... More

It’s been several days since I have returned from La Ceiba. I have been mulling over what to say about this hotel and the rating to give. At first, I thought a “3” was in order, but the more I thought about it and perhaps “4” was more appropriate We traveled on an RCI exchange and were assigned Room 2212,... More
