Our stay at the El Cid Marina was filled with lovely moments and genuinely welcoming staff. The resort felt exclusive and tranquil, perfect for those seeking a quieter getaway. While the food exceeded expectations, we found the nightlife and younger crowd more vibrant at other nearby properties, which might appeal more to younger guests. The beach access was a fun experience using the water taxi, although it might not be ideal for beach bums who prefer direct beach access. Overall, this resort offers a good mix of relaxation and community.
