Hotels near Dolphin Discovery

"This is a solid hotel if you’ve been to Mexico before and know what to expect. My goal here is to give real, practical info. The location is hard to beat—less than a five-minute walk from the ferry. We arrived about two hours early with no expectation of early check-in, but Airan got us into our room at no extra charge. Great start. We booked a king bay view room through Expedia. The lobby is clean and airy, with a small pool behind the front desk—cool (not warm), but perfect after a hot day. Ask for a pool towel. The room was clean and modest, with minimal seating but functional. The mini fridge was very cold (froze our drinks—win). The balcony is small but usable, with a great bay view and a peek at Centro. Sliding doors block street noise well. Storage is solid with a closet, drawers, and counter space. Outlets are only on one side of the bed, so bring a charging brick. The bathroom is spacious with a walk-in shower; pressure mainly supports the rain head and hot water can vary. Towels are a bit worn but clean, and overall cleanliness was very high. A/C is excellent—muy frío. This is not a new hotel or a resort—no frills, no breakfast—but the staff is friendly and sweet. No coffee in the room, so plan ahead. Smart TV included. At times it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves, which added to the charm. "

"The location and views of this property are absolutely amazing, as the hotel sits on a 20 foot cliff Oceanside so you have constant breezes. You can climb down the rocks and get in the ocean and if it’s not too windy, you can get in the water as it is a rocky area. Online pics are likely old when the previous owner was operating it, it has substantial wear and tear and needs some love:) Shared kitchen is ill equipped, we bought a coffee maker for our large group of 10. The AC seemed to work fine in all the rooms, although temps were mild 82 was the high, and we opened our large windows at night and did not use the AC. Our rooms were clean, but we had to maintain them on our own. There were no staff present during the day to do any room housekeeping. Manager was available & fairly responsive via text. One staff was present 9 to 5, he spent the entire day on his phone, sweeping sand off the decks areas and occasionally dropping chemicals in the pool. He did empty the trash from the common areas before he left in the late afternoon. He was under utilized and could be doing so much more to bring that place up to where it was. The pool was pretty cloudy the entire eight day stay and we addressed this concern with the manager, he said they shocked it, which I’m not positive about:( they are obviously on a shoestring budget by all appearances. It would be nice if they had on-site manager that lived in the apartment and then it could be properly cared for & maintained "

"My room overlooked the pool not the beach. Did not have a hot tub."

"Pool is too deep for kids, balconies are dirty all the time with bird poop "

"Staff unfriendly and rude, food and drinks would take up to and hour to get and if you ask, staff would get mad at you! Extremely limited food options at only one restaurant with 2 menus (italian-mexican-italian-mexican) Pool water cold. No music all day and no any kind of entertainment, everything is closed at 10pm. Beach small and overgrown with weeds. Towel shortage in the room and beach. "

"The place was beautiful. Great location. The food at the restaurants was not all that great. The pools were not heated so they were cold during our stay."

"Staff at the property were lovely! You sort of get what you pay for, it’s nice they’ve made the effort to modernise the property but you can tell it’s still a little worn. But as mentioned you get what you pay for. One down side was the water ran really low on our last night, only to wake up the following morning with the toilet not flushing and no water coming out of any taps. I had to use a water bottle to get water out of the pool so the toilet would flush. "

"Super easy and friendly check-in. Room was good with a great view, a bit road noise, close to walk pretty much everywhere."

"Room was very comfortable, not a lot of food choices but breakfast was great"
