Hotel Posada Del Mar

Good Value If You Are Willing To Make Sacrifices

The location is absolutely perfect! It is right on the beach and also in the middle of the most active part of the island. Plenty of great restaurants and shops within walking distance. Every room has a balcony with at least a partial ocean view as well, which was very nice. The A/C was adequate and the rooms are well shaded, so they don't get too hot even without the A/C on.

The bed was not overly comfortable. It would have been okay, but I got extremely sunburned and it made sleeping very difficult. The staff was okay, but they won't go out of their way to do anything for you. You'll have to be persistent if you really have a problem with something. The worst part of our stay was the shower. There was no cold water! Scalding hot was the only option. For me, because of the sunburn, this was especially difficult to deal with, but it was even way too hot for my fiance to handle as well. We had to stand away from the water and splash off as best we could. I told the front desk about it, but it did not get fixed (not sure if they checked it out). I was not persistent because I have a high tolerance for discomfort. Bottom line, if you want to stay in an awesome location for a cheap rate and you're willing to deal with a few "character flaws," then this is a great place for you. If you are looking for luxury, look elsewhere.
