    Great food and especially great staff! Thank you Miguel!

    In addition to the food being excellent, it was the Restaurant Manager, Miguel Cab, that made our dinning experience most exceptional! Because of a reservation problem we thought our evening would be ruined but Miguel solved any issues and accommodated our party of four and treated us as if we were special guests! We enjoyed Miguel’s company’s so much that we returned the next two nights!

    Great family resort!

    We absolutely love our annual trip to El Cid! We can't think of a better place to bring our family! Wish the beach and ocean were better at this location, but it's an easy 25 minutes taxi ride to some of the best beaches in the world!

    Christmas Vacation 2025

    We had an amazing stay and truly appreciate the wonderful service from Cali and Samuel and the rest of the El Cid Family ❤️. We stayed at the Ventus Ha for our Christmas this year and they had shows and entertainment every day. Make sure to visit Felix on the roof top of building 28 for his special secret Pink Passion drink special too as they need to put that on the year round menu! Muchas Gracias familia El Cid!

    Not Worth the Cost

    I stayed three nights at this all-inclusive resort, and overall the experience was disappointing. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to book any of the specialty restaurants because they were already fully booked before I even arrived, which took away from the all-inclusive experience. On my last night, I requested Wi-Fi access for one additional device since there were three of us in the room, but only two devices were allowed. The staff member at the lobby was condescending and made me feel as though it was my fault for traveling during a busy season, rather than trying to help find a solution. Additionally, my room was changed to a smaller one and was described as an “upgrade,” which did not feel accurate. While the food was decent, beach access was limited, and overall the experience did not feel worth what I paid. I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

    Great two Butlers

    Manul and Sebastain were the best two butlers we ever had. They went above and beyond to make sure our experience was nothing but the best. We were at Ventus At Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Resort for my birthday. Both Manul and Sebastian made my special day even more special from decorating my room with balloons to creating towel art- crated a cake using towels, as well a birthday cake with a bottle of wine. They always took care of us and made sure that everything was taken care of in our room or if we needed anything.. Thank you for making our vacation more enjoyable. Donna and Neil
