Bocas del Mar Hotel

Boca Chica

10/10 Excellent

The location was perfect and within walking distance of one of Latin America's best restaurants (Fonda Lo Que Hay) and the staff were all so nice and went out of our way to make us feel welcome. The hotel was spotless, the rooftop pool was incredible...it made my vacation...
