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?

Hotel prices in Progreso often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. 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

OZ Hotel Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Muy cómoda la habitación y todo muy limpio"

Osh Hotel Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay! The hotel’s aesthetic was beautiful, and you can tell so much thought went into the details. Everything was incredibly clean, the breakfast was delicious, and the Le Labo bath products were such a nice touch! The staff was welcoming, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our stay. Overall, such a lovely experience and definitely a hotel we would recommend to anyone visiting Cartagena!"

InterContinental Cartagena De Indias by IHG

8/10 Good

"La Atención, comida, ubicación y todo lo que respecta al servicio es excelente. Llevo bastantes años regresando al mismo hotel porque realmente me encanta, pero en esta oportunidad siento que le hace falta un poco de remodelaciones en sus habitaciones. Ya luce un poco descuidado con lo que respecta a puertas, alfombras y mobiliario. Sin embargo es súper limpio."

Hotel Caribe by Faranda Grand, a member of Radisson Individuals

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel es excelente, muy bien ubicado, el único detalle fue que el personal intentó vendernos una suscripción a un club de fidelidad y nos hizo perder una hora en ello, por último uno de los botones nos cuestionó por motivo de que, a decir de el, no hicimos el check out siendo que ya estábamos por tomar nuestro Uber al aeropuerto, las formas no fueron las correctas, esperarse al último minuto para preguntarnos, denota falta de profesionalismo, fuera de ahí, bastante recomendable."
