Doesn't deserve to have resort in the name THAT IS ALL!!!!!!!!! Dust on the bed heads, they take a 200 dollar cash bond of you then give it back without checking the room to bad if that was your spending money what is the point, doors adjoins others rooms very noisy, have no elevator and awkward layout it's way over...

Great deal and value for money. Fantastic location. Not quite a resort but clean and nice room. Stayed in a family room with a lovely bathroom. Pool and outdoor area is nice. Has a lot of potential!!! Overall good family get away. Would only stay again if a cheap deal was on offer like the one we bought.

Firstly they should get rid of the word resort fom the title. A resort conjures up grandiose places but for the price we paid of $99 per night including full breakfast we got what we expected. A motel. I was a bit taken aback by having to pay upfront a $200 bond.....never done that at any place I've been too.....but... More

El Lago resort is basically a "dive" of a motel. This is obvious as soon as you enter their potholed driveway. How can they have the nerve to call this a resort is anybody's guess. Don't bother to pay for the breakfast, it was cold and disgusting. The food on the hot buffet had obviously been there too long and... More

The only thing going for this place is the location - walking distance to the main drag! Staff unpleasant, manager thinks she's something special, news flash she's not! I didn't actually have any dealings with her but did witness her rudeness to others! The place is very run down and noisy! Pool and sauna look dirty! Find something nicer for... More

My husband and I enjoyed some time away on the long weekend. We have never stayed at El Lago before, but the experience was indeed pleasant. We had a fantastic and spotlessly clean executive room that overlooked the water, which included a lovely hot breakfast the next morning. The town centre is not far away, which made dinner easy to...

Although the hotel is older style accomodation, the rooms were very clean and well equipped. We walked to the beach and had some lovely dinners which were within 2 minutes walk from the El Lago. We enjoyed playing a game of tennis and loved the close proximity to the beach. The staff were very welcoming and I can definitely say... More
