Fodor's Review:

This renovated six-story Spanish colonial hotel, built in 1911, was once called "Queen of the Gulf." Teddy Roosevelt and Howard Hughes are just two of the many well-known guests who have stayed here. Traditional dark wood and plush upholstery pieces furnish both the public and private areas. A pool, swim-up bar, and outdoor grill have been added to the tropical garden facing the sea. Pros: Directly on beach, incredible pool area, beautiful grounds. Cons: Rooms can be small (especially the bathrooms)

Hotel Details: 231 rooms
In-room: Wi-Fi.
In-hotel: restaurant, pool, gym, laundry service, Internet terminal.
