Situated in Zona Colonial, this community marketplace is well worth a look. But you'll find a great deal more to see in the area. Centro Olimpico, Columbus Park, and Colon Lighthouse and Museum are within easy reach of Mercado Modelo.

8.2/10 Very Good! (569 reviews)

All amenities were removed from resort and beach area became public with locals using parasols. No bars at beach area and no animations. Would only go back if resort becomes all inclusive.

8.8/10 Excellent! (609 reviews)

The staff was amazing! There were issues with our flight, so we have been stranded at the airport and everything was closed… not only did they offer room service so that we could get something to eat, they walked us to our rooms and showed us all of the amenities within them. I can honestly say that the level of service surpassed anything I’ve ever experienced.
