My stay at the Grand Galvez Resort was marked by some enchanting experiences, yet marred by significant issues. The charming atmosphere and location near the beach were highlights. but my room was distressingly dirty, with a musty odor that lingered throughout. The pool area was inviting, but the bar service left much to be desired, as I encountered rude bartenders and long waits.
