I want to express my gratitude to the entire work team at the Zalmedina hotel. My stay with my mother was really excellent, the kindness of all the employees including the cleaning lady. Everything was excellent, every day they cleaned our room, the breakfast was excellent and the hotel is in an excellent location close to the beach, restaurants and shopping places. Thanks to the entire team at the Zalmedina hotel.

The property is on the 2nd floor so you need to walk up the stairs. The elevator does not go all the way down to the 1st floor. So, you will need to carry your luggage up to the 2nd floor when checking in and out. The location is convenient for shopping and dining.

This property is located 1 block from the beach, and close to dinning/shopping. However, for the same price you can stay at much better properties in the same area. Renter beware! Research.

I can only say great things about the service and the people who work at the hotel. English isn’t widely spoken but all employees are super kind. Breakfast comes in two plates which are served, includes cut fruits and cheese bread ham traditional cooked plantain. There was a watermelon juice once in our stay which was amazing. Now I want to describe my experience in-front of the hotel , the employees of the two tour agencies were attacking us every time we go in and out till we booked a trip to check out baru. We booked the 4 island tour which I want to not recommend for people who don’t like speeds. The van that picked us up was very old and hardly could breath on there. The boat that takes you in the sea is old and fast and I was having hard time. But they won’t say that to you they just want you to book. I wish we had peace going in and out of the hotel but those agents try to sell you things every time The location is good near the beach stores and restaurants. Jeremy the young guy who works at the hotel was always helpful.
