Reviews
The critics describe the El Rancho Hotel has a 3.5-star hotel. But don’t let the lower star rating fool you because it comes with a plethora of accommodations and amenities. The two biggest luxuries missing are the beaches and spas.
Aside from that, the El Rancho Hotel gives you everything you could ever want in a getaway hotel. It features multilingual staff, luggage storage, laundry facilities, dry cleaning services, housekeeping, and the most common amenities that you would expect to find in a classy hotel.
It is only a 28-minute drive to get to the El Rancho Hotel from the Port-au-Prince International Airport. There are taxis in the area, or you can rent a car to get there. The first option is better because once you get to the hotel, all of the nearby attractions are within walking distance. So, you could save yourself money by not renting a car after you get to the airport.
Amenities
There is a total of 72 air-conditioned rooms in the El Ranch Hotel. Each room includes a washer, dryer, security safe, plasma television, cable channels, showers, toiletries, hairdryers, free Wi-Fi internet access, complimentary bottled water, coffee makers, and tea makers. The hotel also has a restaurant, two bars with lounging areas, free self-parking, poolside bar, conference center and fitness center.
You’ll notice a lot of these amenities have a “self-service” aspect about them. The El Rancho might not spoil you with luxuries, but they provide the essentials to create a joyous experience for their guests.

They take care of the decorations, food catering and other planning efforts to ensure your wedding day goes smoothly.
Conclusion
The El Rancho Hotel has plenty of palm trees and scenic views of the hills and mountains on the outside. The staff members are accommodating, and there are enough amenities and sights to keep you entertained. Even though there are fancier hotels in Haiti, the lower price of the El Ranch Hotel makes up for it. You can still enjoy a wonderful vacation getaway without breaking the bank.
