Building is starting to show some wear and tear, but I have stayed here many times, and rarely have any issues. It’s not the Ritz, so if that’s what you’re looking for, keep going. It’s comfortable, safe, great location, and the staff works very hard to keep you happy. Thanks go out to Lester for all the help at check in!!
Also had a nice kitchenette.

The condition of the resort needs redoing needs to be better. You can’t say that it is a resort and it doesn’t really look like a resort. I do think the place for allowing us to have a place to stay. Staff was super friendly, but the place does need an upgrade.

We really enjoyed our recent stay at El Caribe. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable. The rooms were very clean, and we especially loved the comfortable beds and the variety of pillows provided. While the property is on the older side, it is great to see the ongoing updates. Every member of your staff, including the maintenance team, was extremely friendly and helpful. We also wanted to share a special mention for the check-in desk team—the ladies were absolutely amazing, and there was a gentleman there who was very funny and made us feel welcome. The location is excellent, and while the grocery store across the street was under renovation, having a Publix just up the road was very convenient. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

The staff at check-in were very friendly. This property is very old and it shows. The walls are so thin that we could hear everything in the room beside us. We could also smell the food they had in the next room. Breakfast was supposed to open at 7:00. No one was there to open the breakfast room at 7:00 or even by 7:30. The pools looked nice and good access to the beach.
