The place is very run down and is in serious need of a major renovation.

DO NOT eat at their restaurant. The food is awful. We were the only ones there, and we were there for a good 1 1/2 hours. No wonder. You can get better mufongo at a takeout restaurant, and for considerably less money. As the other dishes came out, it was one disappointment after another. Even the bread was bad. Wow.

On several occasions, when we needed something, no one was at the front desk. If you want an enjoyable experience in PR, go elsewhere.

They charged an extra $ ( a couple of hundred dollars). It took 9 weeks to get money returned. Something is wrong with management. When I first asked for it, they told me they do refund processing only at end of month. Why??? If they know they overcharged, why cannot they make an correction right way. Anyway, they did not make correction at the end of the month. I needed to call them again at the middle of the month. Now, they said they will do it right way. ???? I would like to advise everyone that the restaurant's food is not good. They are a lot of places better and cheaper than that. I will never never advise anyone to go there.

Were do I start ....
1st they are lacking of employees ,they have the same guy to check you in, attend the bar ,serve an cook breakfast , room service ( Joel your the man ).With 1 employee doing all this how can you expect any type of good service. 2nd the pool needs to be cleaned and painted ,because there was scum all over the place. I love my island of Puerto Rico ,but Porlamar is in need of more employees and people that really care. The girl from front desk did not know anything ,she was just their. Really the best thing that I liked was the location and air conditioner ,beside this what else can I say .I usually say positive comments ,but you are lacking of service. Sorry Porlamar I will never return to your facilities.

I have stayed at the Parador Posada Porlamar three times as part of a dive package in conjunction with Parguera Divers, the dive shop on the grounds of the inn. The rooms come with TV, a private bath (shower only, no tub) and are air conditioned. The rooms are simple. You won't find fluffy towels or chocolates on the pillow, just a simple, clean, room and bath. I have only stayed in the top two floors. There are two lower floors as well. After I made my reservation with the dive shop for this third trip, I received a call notifying me that there would be live music on the weekends and was given the opportunity to cancel. I decided to keep my room and am glad I did since the music was not loud. The inn is near several restaurants and bars and two small markets as well . A pharmacy is nearby for your convenience. I only ate in the hotel restaurant once because I received a meal voucher for $25. The food was quite good, but I felt it was a little pricey. This is a great "bang for the buck" as long as you are not looking for luxury. The dive shop itself is outstanding. Angel Rovira runs a first class operation. My experience each time has been very positive because I had a certain set of expectations and am pleased with how things turned out.
