Pool side was OK. The grounds were beautiful. The pool was beautiful the room we had was absolutely horrible. It took us 20 minutes to get a lukewarm shower. The bathroom was awful. It’s not what we are accustomed to and it didn’t show the rooms just the grounds which were phenomenal. They were beautiful and so were the boats, but they didn’t show the rooms or I would’ve never booked staying there. I’m not the only one that felt this way there were others as well.

Upon check in we were kind of underwhelmed. The hotel is dated - the rooms are dated but clean. After further inspection - we realized the grounds were beautiful and well maintained. First we went to the bar to get a reposado shot. Unfortunately they didn’t have any. And we soon realized that the bar was quite under stocked. But they were so willing to bring in almost anything that we required. Then we went for dinner at the buffet - the food was just okay. But once we realized you could order almost anything and they would accommodate as best they could - we thoroughly enjoyed. We spent two weeks - all inclusive at this resort. During this time we fell in love with the area - the staff - the grounds - everything. We honestly will return often. During our time here we felt a part of a family. We were treated amazing!! We would like to mention some of the service staff who made our vacation exceptional - Misael our favorite mixologist!!! Jonathon, Caesar, Carlos the most attentive servers. The omelette lady was outstanding everyday!! If we had one negative - it would be nice to have a small fridge in our room - apparently some rooms do. The pool temperature was perfect everyday and well maintained. The shuttle to the beach was a nice added feature. We highly this affordable hotel.

The location is keeping this place a float. Right on the marina, so pretty, the pool area and garden are very nice and the lobby has old classoc mexican charm. The kitchen didnt have all the ingredients for the items on the menu, and you habe to go to the lobby to pay for drinks at the pool bar. No wifi in rooms, or coffee, or a fridge. The staff was rude when we left because we took our manatory braclets off ourselves the morning we checked out, and they all have different instructions for towel distribution at the pool. The gym pictured doesnt exist, there is no gym. We stayed 2 nights as we had an event all day, easy for us, wouldnt stay for a vacation.

Most staff were wonderful, but they were working with garbage! The towels were stained and falling apart. The resort needs a lot of TLC, like a toilet seat in the women’s bathroom in the lobby. Food in the all inclusive was poor quality with little variety. The bar ran out of beer, white wine and their version of Bailies. There was no orange juice or cappuccino unless you purchased it separately, for far too much. Too bad such a lovely place is so poorly run. We won’t be back!

Pros: Excellent location and beautiful colonial-style grounds and landscaping. Quiet, peaceful, no noisy kids or families. A/C works wonderfully and beds are comfy, if you like soft beds. Great views from any room. Very good housekeeping and staff service. Free bottled water restocked daily in room.

Cons: Even deluxe room felt dated. Shower pressure is nonexistent and hot water takes a long time to heat up, Bathroom had an extremely off-putting smell and shower window didn’t properly close. Lack of towel hooks. Bathroom needs serious work all in all.

We recently stayed here and overall had a decent experience.
Check-in went smoothly, and the staff were helpful and courteous throughout our stay — we really appreciated the friendly service.
The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. However, there were no hand towels or face cloths provided. The rooms are starting to look a little tired and could use some TLC and updating.
The location is excellent and definitely one of the highlights of this property.
We chose not to eat at the buffet. The food was uncovered and there were quite a few flies around, including on the chicken, which made us uncomfortable.
With some updates to the rooms and improved food safety practices, this hotel could be a much stronger option in a great location.

Hello, we did enjoy our stay, thank-you. The staff was most courteous and helpful. There were a couple of concerns, however, when we arrived it was late in the afternoon, most likely the housekeeping staff was gone for the day. The floor in our room was not clean, as there were crumbs and hairs visible. We went out for a couple of hours, returned, and the floor was the same, so I took care of it myself..... Also, there was a fairly strong odour of mildew in the room, perhaps because the shower head was leaky, and the room was always wet. These sorts of things seem like they are preventable to me.... To end on a positive note, however, the Flamingo Hotel is very beautiful, and the location was very convenient, and the bedding was of a good quality... Thanks again.

Pool is small. There was something in the pool that looked odd and some sort of wire hanging out in pool, but staff maintenance had it fixed. We had to let maintenance staff know a few times about the odd floaties in the pool.

Breakfast was okay. Lunches and suppers not. They continually ran out of white wine and at times red.
The drinks from the bar were very watered down.

Tv didn’t work in our room, only watched minimal. Cleaning staff were fine, they tried to accommodate.

On a different note, staff tried hard to please.
This is a management t issue, not the staff.

Staff worked hard and this review feels like \"punching down\" but if 1 person avoids here (or better yet, management changes things as a result so people don't have to avoid), it's worth it.
Not enough cooking staff to distribute food (ex: burgers were served by only 1 person to guests 1 at a time, same chef put fixings on each burger 1 at a time, then after all 13 people had a burger, then that same chef took plates 1 by 1 and put other food on the plates). So inefficient!!! Meal times took far too long and often were 15-30 minutes late starting to begin with. Too often, no one behind the bar to serve during the day until 3-4 people were lined up waiting.
Absolutely ZERO soundproofing in the hotel rooms; you WILL be woken up at 6:00 am whether you want to or not by just normal volume conversation. Regular volume discussions by the pool area feel like they're broadcast directly into your room.
Gym is unusable regardless of what their ad says. Extra room keys are unavailable.

Room is ok (a/c works, bathroom and bed are fine) and you won't starve, though not once did we finish a meal and say, \"wow, that was delicious!\" The pool area is good enough; don't have to get up at 6:00 am for a chair, although we could've as we were awake. Marina area and the restaurants around are great (we used them often to avoid the disappointment of the hotel restaurant).
It's a 3ish star so expectations should be low, but they shouldn't have to be a tripping hazard in hell. Very disappointed!
