When is the best time to go to Progreso?

The best time to go to Progreso is during the dry season, which runs from December to April. During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days and lower humidity, making it ideal for exploring the city and enjoying the beaches. The weather is generally warm but not excessively hot, with pleasant breezes off the Caribbean Sea. This period is great for those looking to relax by the water or take part in outdoor activities without the interruption of rain. While the dry season is popular, it's also when Progreso sees the most visitors. If you prefer fewer crowds and are comfortable with the occasional afternoon shower, the shoulder months of November and May can also be a good option.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Progreso hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Progreso hotel?

To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.

Top Progreso Hotel Reviews

Faranda Collection Cartagena, a member of Radisson Individuals

8/10 Good

"the pool view is awesome… I liked the view from my room even though I didn’t opt for the sea view… its right off the beach so you can walk down and go to the water… the breakfast was very good it had a good variety, a few changes everyday!! Here’s the bad stuff… there’s no drawers to put your clothes, there’s no microwave… there’s no sliding door for the shower it’s like missing a door I asked the house keeper she said it’s like that every room… so I asked for extra floor towels as water splashed out… MY WORST EXPRRIENCE…. one day I asked for house keeping as I haven’t needed it for three days and they told me they would have someone right up I waited an hour… I got mad called down and said I waited an hour you said right away so are they coming or not?? So they said yes I’ll make sure they are coming right now… I told him I don’t believe him I need them to clean it I need new sheets, towels and trash taken he said ok. I left to go to the pool for 1 1/2 hr came back and it wasn’t done… I called again and I told them I need it done now you told me they would come and they haven’t been here, he said okay I’ll make sure they are coming… an hour later nothing so I went down stairs very mad, I told them it was NOT OKAY I wasted my day waiting bc I needed a shower and still no one!! The receptionist called and told them on walkie and 20 mins later they showed up… so from 2-730pm wasted! I’m on vacation at a 5star hotel… I should not have to wait that long or at least tell me!!"
