Great property. The breakfast buffet is plentiful with local foods and continental fare. All very good. The ocean view and pools are top notch. The staff was courteous and helpful always. Great vacation spot for families and close to local beach front restaurants at Veracruz beach right down the road. One small improvement is an update to the fitness center. It is spacious and has a lot of equipment but the machines and weights are a bit dated.
