I liked that it was a refuge for birds and the property had nice landscaping areas. What I didn't like was was informed breakfast was till 11, but they took all the good by 10:50. Leaving the late birds with limited food. Another dislike is that the pool and Jacuzzi was closed after 8. Felt like the adults didn't have enough time.

Beautiful but crowded
Hotel Caribe is a splendid, historic building but the grounds are somewhat crowded with newer blocks of rooms. The pool and restaurant felt crowded most of the time. Beautiful wildlife in the gardens including very tame exotic birds. Located a 15 minute drive from historic city centre where many beautiful buildings and restaurants.

It took three tries to get the type of room I reserved. In my first room, I didn't have the ocean view that I had reserved. It also had a refrigerator that wasn't working. And when I opened the refrigerator, a roach ran out.
