We were celebrating my sister's wedding at this hotel. The rooftop is amazing and makes awesome pictures ! Very nice location, quiet , beach front, close to bars and the fifth avenue, everything was close ! We really like small hotels like this, he price was cheap and we always go away for lunch and dinner anyway. The service was... More

The room was clean, shower decent. But not an ideal place if you are hoping to get any relaxation. No blackout curtains in the windows so you are up with the sun every single day. Constant techno music from bars and hotels next door and on the beach all day and all night non-stop is supremely annoying. The beach in... More

This was a very relaxing place to stay. Right on the beach - but quiet- no annoying music as other beach clubs. The location was close to the main street but even with the windows open at night - very little street noise. Many delicious choices for vegan or vegetarian eaters- especially the salads served as I sat in the... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for our honeymoon. The hotel exceed our expectations. It was so clean and well kept and the staff was always so nice. It is a very quiet and simple hotel, yet that is what we were looking for. Its location right on the beach was perfect and was just a few steps... More

The best location on the beach friendly and accommodating staff, good food and beverage . The 35 minute drive from cancun couldn't be easier, night life and local playa life is steps away! A truly great hide away from daily life and the regular resort world !

This little hotel is spotless, the food is the very best on the beach and cheap and it is on the middle of the beach but a half a block away from 5th Avenue with hundreds of Bars Restaurants and World Class Shopping. My room with a balcony was $150; i could afford to stay all week!

We stayed at Hotel Alhambra the first week of April. It was very the least expensive option for a hotel on the beach with a King size bed that we could find. A full breakfast included was a huge bonus. The staff was kind and smiled often. They were quiet, yet welcoming. They spoke fair English and were always happy... More

Stayed here for one night on the way to Tulum. We were two friends traveling together and requested a room with two beds. We were give room 6, a decent room with a balcony overlooking the street and partial view of the water if you really tried to look. The downside to the room was the bathroom. You could not... More

This is our second time at the Hotel Alhambra. My wife and I escaped the stormy winter in Boston for a week in the sun and we immediately thought of the Hotel Alhambra. If you are looking for an oceanfront hotel, look no further. The staff is always warm and friendly and always greet you with a smile. You cannot... More
