The food was delicious. The property and rooms were very clean. Staff were very attentive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. Shoutouts to Ricky he was very helpful and had patience.
Everything perfect! Wonderful location and gardens with very friendly and helpful staff and super clean!! 100% recomendable! Had some very pleasant holidays! Thank you!
The Caribe Hotel is one of my favorite hotels to stay in. The staff is so gracious, nice and accommodating. The hotel has a nostalgia that's unmatched. The hotel grounds are well kept and provide many amenities. The breakfast buffet is always delicious. I highly recommend the Caribe Hotel.
We come each year. This year we appreciated the new gym and pool. We thought the breakfasts were better this year with some new vegetables and always a meat option. However, internet seemed much slower this year.
The food was delicious. The staff were friendly and kind. Love this hotel, the beach was right across the street and walking distance from many restaurants and shopping stores.
The room was spacious and extra clean. The staff is super friendly. Breakfast, which was included, was amazing. The property itself is gorgeous. Plenty of pools and outdoor space so you never feel over crowed. Overall i would stay again in a heartbeat.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The reason for was clean and the pleasant but a couple of things were off. The toilet seat wasn’t properly fastened, and there was no hot water in the first shower I took. The staff was great and so was the hotel grounds, from the pool to the gardens.
The hotel is beautiful and the staff are very kind and accommodating. Their restaurant service and facilities were great, but the food itself was ok. The beach has a ton of vendors that are walking around trying to sell things to tourists. It doesn’t exactly make for a peaceful beach experience, but there is great access just across the street.
The property was impeccable. Even though they have wild life living on the property they take extra care to ensure that it is clean The pool area was spectacular. Breakfast buffet was amazing, all the food was great. Really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, the beds were comfortable. We had an amazing time.
Staff was very friendly and attentive. Room was very clean and the property is well located with proximity to the walled city. Beautiful pool, and right across from the beach with a private beach area
