My only complaint is allowing people to hog the lounge chairs around the pool all day. They put their towels down at 8:00 a.m. and then merrily went shopping or out for breakfast and would not show back at the pool until 2:00…. There should be a 2 hour limit on the chairs so other people have a chance to enjoy.

We loved the location in town and the pool was lovely. We found the staff got friendlier as the week went on. It was a bit annoying that guests went out early and put towels on the chairs even if they didn’t use them for hours.. we rarely got a chair at the beach or pool.

Booked at the Tropicana for the first time because we stayed next door last year and fell in LOVE with the neighborhood. I knew we would be near the beach and all my favorite restaurants but I didn’t know that this hotel also had its own beach club and restaurant for guests! We were *blessed* with a poolside ground floor room (if you can request a room In the teens you will not be disappointed) that had a super comfy bed and pillows. We met other guests who stay here every year and know the long term staff like they were family. We didn’t have to communicate much with the staff but every time we did they were wonderfully hospitable and kind, going above and beyond every step of the way. My friend was sensitive to the musky smell the humidity cause on the linens in the room, so we kept our air conditioner on the whole stay. Since construction was over, our stay was pretty quiet: from the bathroom ventilation you could hear the service station upstairs, but generally the guests at the poolside were quite quiet and respectful. 10/10 would stay here again!

This is the second time we've stayed in this hotel and overall, it's a pretty good option and I would recommend it. You can't beat the location - it's within walking distance to almost everything in the Zona Romantica area of PV and they have chairs on the beach you can use. The overall service at the front desk and bar/food service were also great! The only really frustrating thing I experienced is that other guests would put their things on a pool chair right away when it opened in the morning and they wouldn't use it until later in the day if at all. There is a sign telling guests not to hold chairs, but it wasn't enforced - there aren't a ton of chairs, so it was frustrating not to be able to get one in the afternoon even though there were many that were being held and not used. It's much easier to book this hotel on Expedia than their website (their website is pretty outdated), although it would be nice to be able to select the bed size in the booking. You don't know if you are getting two doubles or a king until you arrive.

Liked: Room comfort

A grand old dame offering good value

Positives: big airy lobby with a great ocean view, large rooms with comfy mattresses, weighty blankets in addition to sheets, plenty of pillows, in-room wifi. Turtle pond is a nice touch, and you get free access to the palapas and chairs on the beach. The sunsets were amazing from my room. Negatives: lots of under-utilized public spaces, old bathroom fixtures, slow check-in experience, not enough pool chairs since guests would hoard them early in the morning. Overall, good value, full of old people, gay-friendly of course.

Nice Area

The personnel was very friendly and the area was very nice. Rooms do need a little upgrade. The only thing I did not like about this hotel, They only give you one beach towel per day, I drop mine in the pool so I went to EXCHANGE it, NOT to keep both. And they told NO, Only one use per day

Never again, hotels.com

Hotels.com allowed us to book a room when the hotel staff said there were no such rooms available. The hotel staff were great but hotels.com representatives were absolutely horrible in handling this, later blaming this on the hotel and claiming they were only "mediators." There was no resolution and my family had to split up and stay with friends for the night.

We booked and paid for a Superior Room in advance and were given a bad room overlooking a noisy street with a leaking bathroom sink. Water on the floor around the bathroom sink cabinet constantly. We’ve visited Tropicana many times over the years and as repeat customers expected better. Sorry but we won’t be back.

Overall our stay was great. Two concerns: 1. When we arrived at 4:00 PM to check-in, the Front Desk Reception said the hotel was full. Confused, I said we had a reservation. She then wrote on a piece of paper "tip" and tapped her pen on those words several times. I was taken aback, but because she had not yet assigned us a room, and had said the hotel was full, I felt forced to pay it. 2. Hotel practice of allowing guests to put towels on both beach chairs and the loungers around the pool, effectively 'reserving' the spot for the entire day. Multiple times we'd arrive at the pool around 10:30 AM, and the ~35 chairs all had towels draped across them, but not a single person in sight. I was so frustrated one day I simply moved the towels and we sat down on two lounge chairs, spent 30 minutes in the pool, then left - still before the people showed up. Ditto on the beach chairs. Overall we had a great time. Hotel was basic but clean, staff friendly. And you can't beat the location.
