I've been staying at the Hotel Barracuda almost every year since 1991. I've seen lots of changes over the years yet the staff are just as consistent and kind as ever. Love the convenience of Mega ( grocery store) across the street, daily housekeeping, common areas are kept clean and neat, pool bar/ restaurant has reduced prices for hotel guests, dive shop on premise, walking distance to town. 7-11 has awesome coffee. You can get a massage and/ or adjustment at the chiropractors clinic downstairs. I always enjoy my stay there . 24 hour security. I always feel safe there.

If you're looking for cheap beach front with walking distance to the city centre, and don't care too much about noise, cleanliness and very basic accommodation, this is the place. Nice bar which is busy during the afternoons when cruiseships are around. Rooms have aircon and a fridge.

Not very friendly staff in the lobby, experienced about 6 days of it…they act like you’re bothering them if you ask anything. The pool and ocean front was nice but would not stay again due to the pool music and night club sounds coming from somewhere nearby all the way until 3am. Very basic and budget friendly but at our cost of peace. The location and convenience of everything close by was nice. Good dive resort on sight was great.

I wanted to like this place but, within 24 hours my toilet broke and while they were fixing it there was a cockroach. They moved me to a different room that unfortunately the bug problem didn’t change. They offered me a free night but I won’t be back. It is outdated, and all the bathroom things were rusted. The locks on the doors were rusted and unusable, and there’s space around the doors that you can see light. The beds were better in the second room but really hard. It is connected to No Name bar and the staff there are awesome, friendly. There’s a discount for No Name but it’s a limited menu and a different price if you pay cash vs. card. There is no WiFi except in the lobby or you can pick it up from No Name but they turn it off at like 9 lol It is convenient location to walk into town, but I also learned that if you leave early in the AM or get back late they lock the door and the night employee wakes up to let you in/out. I’m a solo traveler, so the door locks being flimsy or unusable could be a problem for some. I do budget travel but this unfortunately missed the mark for me.
