    walk to breathtaking beaches and local dining spots in boca chica

    I loved how just less than a 5-minute walk away, the beach offered stunning views and free beach chairs, while the restaurant scene nearby provided delicious local options like Ristorante Incanto, making it a perfect spot for enjoying weekend strolls with a friendly vibe.

    beach location
    poor organization
    missing amenities

    Right on the beach, shallow waters perfect for kids, private beach area reducing local vendor hassle.

    The lack of coffee machines and telephones in rooms is disappointing!!! Also, organization at the reception could use some serious improvement. being forced to cross the street for your key is ridiculous!!!

    fantastic location
    crystal-clear waters
    adult-only section
    limited kid-friendly activities

    The location is fantastic, with fine white sand and crystal-clear waters perfect for our family. We particularly enjoyed the adult-only section, as it gave us some quiet time away from our toddler. The on-site scuba diving was a highlight for the adults!

    In my wife’s opinion, the rooms need better maintenance. It would be great if they had more kid-friendly activities, like a playground or a supervised kids' club.

    ocean view
    dedicated staff
    cold meals
    inconsistent food quality
    overwhelming vendors

    The beautiful ocean view from room #6827 was a highlight, and the service was impeccable, reflecting the dedication of the hardworking staff. However, the food quality was inconsistent, with some meals being cold and lacking fresh ingredients, like avocados that should be locally sourced. Additionally, the beach near the hotel had numerous vendors, which could feel overwhelming at times.

    great food
    excellent service

    whala! boca chica was a solid choice for our getaway. the food was delicious, and the service was top-notch! we enjoyed the breathtaking setting and loved the variety of activities available. it was perfect for relaxing on the beach while soaking up the sun. the entertainment was lively, although it ran late, but it didn't overshadow the great time we had.

    i had to wait until midnight to go to sleep due to loud music outside my room.

    turquoise water

    The beach was stunning with clear, turquoise water. We enjoyed the awesome kayak rental and evening entertainment like karaoke.

    Felt very lucky to have found it, no complaints.

    beach vibes
    friendly staff
    entertainment crew
    repetitive food
    broken fixtures

    The beach vibes are top-notch, and I loved the friendly staff—shoutout to the entertainment crew for teaching me some sweet Bachata moves! The variety at the buffet kept my cravings satisfied, even if it was a little hit or miss.

    The dining scene was a letdown. drinks were cheaper than my grandma's homemade punch. The food got repetitive and honestly, lacked flavor. Maintenance was sorely needed, with broken fixtures and a missing do not disturb sign in my room.
