Hotel Bucaneros is a 16-room hotel located on vibrant Avenida Hidalgo, within a 10-minute walk of gorgeous Playa Norte (North Beach). Guest rooms at this two-and-a-half pearl hotel are pleasant and functional, some include narrow balconies, separate sitting areas, and small kitchenettes. There isn't a pool, and the hotel’s ambience is unremarkable overall, but its clean rooms and excellent location make it a solid choice for travelers seeking a no-nonsense base with free breakfast. As an alternative, guest rooms at Hotel Plaza Almendros down the street are more worn, but rates are often significantly lower, and there’s an outdoor pool on-site.

Hotel Posada Del Mar is a two-and-half-pearl hotel located about 200 feet from a picturesque white sand beach. The shops, restaurants, and bars of downtown are less than a three-minute walk away. Its 99 guest rooms could use an update and room cleanliness may not be up to standard for more detail-oriented guests, but those seeking a no-frills place to crash are likely to be satisfied. Rooms offer balconies or patios as well as flat-screen TVs. The hotel’s outdoor pool is popular with families, and the restaurant and bar both feature partial views of the beach across the street. By comparison, Hotel Bahia Chac Chi just up the street offers more modern rooms, but prices are higher.

Maria's Kan-kin is a cozy three-pearl hotel with nine suites. Individually decorated rooms are pleasant but slightly rough around the edges, and some guests complain of hard beds or poor water pressure. Still, they're a good value, and many can accommodate larger groups or families. Its private beach is small but lovely, and the restaurant and outdoor pool offer picturesque views over the coast. But the service is rather relaxed. The hotel’s location -- a 15-minute drive from the island’s most popular beach and downtown's core -- is ideal for guests seeking tranquility yet too remote for others. Travelers looking for more amenities and a more central location could try Ixchel Beach Hotel.
