My husband and I stayed at the Ola Cecilia Apartments during late Sept / early October 2009. The accommodation was part of a package holiday booked through Thomas Cook but using their marginally less expensive associate Companies. The purpose of our trip was to relax and to make up for having had such a disappointing honeymoon earlier in the year... more

Just returned from 7 nights in the perfect chill out location! Arrived 27th September to be told we were upgraded to an apartment from a studio - great space - living and dining area, kitchen, bathroom and 2 double bedrooms! Paid less than £400 for 2 self catering flying from Belfast. Apartment situated accross road from main reception, bar etc,... more

When our pulled up outside Club Cecilia, first impressions were that of ' OH MY GOD!'' What looked like a very dated 70's Butlins resort, flat roofed, green wooden window panes and manky net curtains hung very haphazardly, we were here! Went into the reception area which was a lot nicer, along with the good sized bar / pool area.... more

My husband and I have just come back from an 8 day stay at this hotel. We were housed in one of the blocks away from the main hotel and swimming pool area (block 4). On arrival at reception we were given our key and directed where to go (some reviews moaned about this previously but it really was not... more

We went knowing that it would be a quiet resort...not knowing that we would be woken every morning by 5 cockerells from 4am every 30 seconds to 8am.......so loud. Not relaxing at all. The town of Porto Colom is non exisent as there was 4 resturants open all week and the average meal was £100 for not good food. I... more

We took a chance and booked this on the internet without checking Tripavisor first so was a bit nervous... The trip was also very very cheap, perhaps the cheapest holiday we've ever booked - again, the warning signs were there but me and my g/f thought what the hell! A cheap week away was needed. All was well though on... more

Stayed at Ola Cecilia for 9 nights in early September and had a great time. We booked studios and were housed across the road from the main complex. There are four 3-floor studio blocks around a courtyard area. Not much view if you are on the lowest floor but we were on the top floor and had a lovely sea... more

We stayed at the Ola Cecelia Apartments for a week in August. We had a one bedroomed apartment on the ground floor in front of the swimming pool. It was great for my 12 year old, who could hop over the wall to swim and in the evening join the other kids for the evening. I am a hotelier so... more

As others have commented, this hotel is in a great location, near to a beautiful beach and a handful of nice restaurants. This is where our praise for this hotel ends however. Granted this holiday was not the most expensive we have ever been on. Our expectations of the accomodation were that it would be basic in terms of ammenities... more
