San Patricio Melaque hotels from HK$347

"Ok"

"The hotel was easy to find (driving) and a block from the bus terminal. It is beachfront and also has a very clean pool. The pool isn’t huge but easily accommodated a few guests at a time. Staff were super friendly, attentive and helpful. They were quite willing to translate with a phone into English and tolerant of my feeble Spanish; also Great with my kids. Drinking/ cooking water was provided in big bottles. The kitchenette had just enough equipment. Wifi was free and the signal was steady. My husband’s phone didn’t like the signal in the living room but mine was fine. Plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. It’s easy to buy eggs fresh every day. Pharmacy and Oxxo are close. Locals are quite pleasant. Traffic is not rushed. Access to the highway is easy if you want to check out Barra de Navidad and it’s less than 30 minutes to the airport. It’s worth noting that there are strong waves along much of this beach with some riptide areas where water circles from the steeper beach (ex. next hotel to either side) into the gentler slope. Teens and adults swam and boogie boarded nearby. Little kids should swim further north as the slope is gentler and extends into the water a little further. People fish from the beach at twilight. A review of Google Earth views and depth charts estimates 80+ meters of “shallow-ish” water from high tide mark. I am 5’11” and was over waist deep at ~40m from the high tide mark on a steeper slope. Strong undertow."

"Servicio del restaurante no fue de lo mejor"

"Great location close to everything, walking distance"

"Friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast, clean and comfortable room. Because rooms face out on a corridor open from the first to the rooftop restaurant, street and nearby restaurant noise enters from the top down. Some rooms only have windows facing the corridor with no view."

"It’s a new hotel. The only problem I had was that it is on a dusty street. Saying that, it isn’t the hotels fault. It would be great for families. The indoor pool is hopping with children. The kitchen is a bonus!"

"The owners are amazing..make you feel so welcome. The hot water was the best we have experienced in Mexico in terms of pressure and heat. The air conditioner is in the bedroom so the kitchen does not get the benefit of it..a fan in the kitchen would help. The utensils in the kitchen were limited but the owners provided us with the items we requested. We love this hotel."

"The staff were very helpful and courteous. The rooms are simple and the housekeeping is well done and consistent. I would recommend this hotel if you are looking for the Mexican experience. One block from the beach, restaurants and music.."

"I didn't stay. It was very ugly the road. I couldn't get through with the car"
