The Parma Real Beach Resort is not your typical resort! For those of you who had stayed in resorts in Mexico, Jamaica, and Dominican Republic, Warning! This resort is not for you... The property is very small, they only have two small poor the deep end is about 5 feet deep maybe less, there is only one restaurant (at least... More

I stayed at the Palma Real on two non-consecutive nights while in Honduras on a missions trip. I guess this is what you'd expect from a hotel in the developing world. The rooms, common areas, and grounds are about what you'd expect at a rundown Best Western in the United States. The plumbing fixtures and furnishings are worn, dated, and... More

i had to be in La Ceiba for 10 days for business. I asked my local representative (located in another hotel) for a good hotel. He booked me this one. Basically this is an all-included, vacation hotel. The restaurant works on buffe basis for all meals. The food is not gourme but reasonable. At the restaurant people are nice but... More

The service of the hotel is very bad, the food wasn't on time, the people were rude and lacked profesionalism. Once you're there the staff is not as Nice as they are on your arrival, especially if you demand a better service, and some things went missing, and they were on a "safe" place!!!

I stayed at Palma Real while on a quick work trip to La Ceiba. The options in the area are slim, and the all-inclusive aspect seemed convenient. I arrived via Goloson airport, and took a taxi ($35 USD) out to the resort. Palma Real sits on a large and beautiful piece of property, on which they have developed the resort,... More

We travelled with 3 children, chose a villa, it was very quiet and with fully equipped kitchen, very clean, no mold, no insects, 2 huge bathrooms, no problems with water. Furniture pathetic and falling apart, but who cares! No internet at the villas though, but OK at the lobby or main building. Food totally safe but not appealing to the... More
