Historical Traveler Reviews The Palms Resort Of Mazatlan
Great hotel O.K. location
This hotel has a great pool, the rooms are very nice, the bathrooms are huge, the place is overall very clean. We had the ocean view room which had an awesome view (no balcony).The location is north of El cid and most of the action/shopping is south by the dairy queen. Breakfast at the hotel was terrible(stay away from the scrambled eggs) and not cheap $7 U.S. I would recommend buying snacks and drinks at walmart and keeping them in your room/fridge. Restaurants I would recommend are No Name Cafe for ribs, Gus & Gus for fantastic shrimp kebobs, La Casa Country (right across the street) for great steaks (little bit pricey but well worth it), and Marys Sandwich Shoppe for awesome hamburgers. I would exchange my money at the american express office( located in the same strip mall as Dairy Queen). Want to call home? Buy 60mins for $5 US. at Christine's internet cafe located next door to Subway. Quality of phone line not the greatest, but it's alot cheaper than making a call from your hotel room. If anybody has any questions feel free to e-mail me.
"Not Your Father's Holiday Inn...But It Should Be Yours!"
Holiday Inn Sunspree has transformed this place for you to spend a vacation with them and without complaint. It does not look like "Your Father's Holiday Inn!" They have put renovation dollars in all the right places and make every effort to make your vacation memorable.
Always Get an OCEANVIEW. Other "Views" in the Hotel Zone seem to involve street noise. All Sunspree Rooms are spacious and clean. A Terrazzo Tiled Seven-Foot Shower has replaced the conventional fiberglass bathtub. Four Large Bath Towels and Hand Towels are provided each day without a phone call to the front desk. Hair Dryer, Ironing Board, Iron, In Room Coffee Pot and Refridgerator are severall "steps-up" from the Oceano Palace and Luna Palace. Sunspree offers an In-Room DE-HUMIDIFIER UNIT as standard for all rooms and was a nice surprise not found at most Mexican Hotels. No "Musty Odors" here. Another surprise was smoke detectors in every room and the peace of mind that goes along with them. Key Card Entry Doors is a nice touch normally found at more expensive hotels. The Infinity Swiming Pool and Swim Up Bar (cleaned twice each day) are focal points of your holiday stay. Second Floor of the Hotel has a 24-Hour-Accessible Exercise Room with decent equipment. There's also a tennis court. New Pool Furniture doesn't sound like much of an attraction but after seeing other hotels' pool and beach chairs, you'll know that Sunspree management wants you to return for another visit. The Lounge Chairs are brand new. And not a defective one around. The Beach front is "groomed" each morning. Beach Towels are abundant throughout the day.
The staff, waiters, and bartenders are real treat. Tell Salvadore and Sebastian that you'd prefer Cuervo 1800 instead of the house Tequilla. Go see "Arturo" at the front door for information about anything in Mazatlan! Twenty to Forty Pesos, as a tip, goes along way to help this hard working father of three girls and a 23-year veteran of Holiday Inn! You'll like this guy! Make sure to tip the Towel Boy and Maids on a daily basis since they have the lowest paying jobs in all of Mazatlan.
Breakfast at the hotel is convenient and you can greet the day early (before 7am) if you wish. Bacon, Eggs, Juice, Toast, Potatoes and Coffee is $7.00 USD. Try "The Place" (after 8am) North of Luna Palace for the same meal at $4.30 USD. Lunch at the hotel is equally convenient and quite good. The Shrimp and Cheese Appetizer (with Tortillias) makes a filling lunch for about $6.00 USD. (Bacon is no added charge if you ask for it.) For a Late Lunch or Early Dinner you must try the Best Barbeque Ribs in Mazatlan at "No Name Cafe" for $10.50 USD. (Two can actually share this meal for the price of one!) "The Shrimp Factory" is a must for Lobster, Shrimp, Mahi-Mahi, and Margaritas for Two...at $56 USD. (Kinda Pricey but better portions and quality is excellent.) Go have desert at the "Royal Villas Restaurant"...Bananas Flambe for Two at $10.00 USD. Also try "Panama" for Unbelieveable Cake by the Slice and Coffee at $4.80 USD.
Mazatlan now has a WALMART. It will cost you about 50 Pesos for a Pulmonia Ride. If you must find a Pharmacy go here where communication is of the utmost importance. English is spoken behind the counter and you will also find a sense of reassurance here. While you are there pick up a large bottle of Kaluha for 93.00 pesos, the best price you'll find. Check out the other tequilla selections like Cuervo 1800. Sorry, premium tequillas like Don Julio, Milagro Reserva are best purchased at the Airport's DUTY FREE SHOP when you leave Mazatlan.
All of Mazatlan will try to sign you up for a time share presentation at any number of places. This Hotel is no different and it will be a looming presence here if you let it. Avoid "signing-up" upon arrival for the hotel's get acquainted breakfast....It will be a time share show. It is difficult to be polite after so many daily assaults. But a "quick smile" and "no thanks" is universal. On a rain-soaked day, go see Evelyn in the lobby to learn about Holiday Inn's Time Share. You'll lose 1 1/2 to 3 hours of your vacation over breakfast or lunch while receiving "premiums", discounts, or tours for showing your interest. Be aware that other time share presentations are often high pressure events that can ruin a vacation. Holiday Inn Sunspree might be the least intrusive and one where you can get up and leave as friends.
Go Enjoy Mazatlan and Experience the Warmth and Great Surroundings that this Hotel Offers! Its a good choice.
Could be better
A series of small to medium irritants cause me to be less than enthusiastic about this hotel.
Despite what others say, I do not think it is well situated, being located in a sort of no-mans land between the two main tourist areas (the Golden Zone and Sabalo Country Club) of Mazatlan. We rented a car, and found that the hotel parking lot is not right there, but across the street and down the road a bit. Nothing drastic, but one is forced to begin and end each drive with a walk down an unpaved sidewalk.
The beds, at least where we were, were rock-hard and the pillows flabby little squares.
Other things. Although a balcony is ideal for enjoying Mazatlan weather (especially when back home it is 10 below zero Celsius) we did not have one, although some other rooms did.
The restaurant is generally good, but at times variable. At the start of our stay the coffee was awful (Mexico produces some excellent coffee) but got better later on. The pico de gallo was usually very spicy, but, on one occasion, was dry and flat.
There were frequent noises from some renovation work going on somewhere in the building and, on two occasions the alarm clock in the (vacant) adjoining room went off in the middle of the night.
Quite irritating was the atempt by management to charge of 9 Pesos for a bag of coffee for use with the in-room coffee maker, a charge later removed when we protested that we were not advised of this in advance.
In short, one could do worse. But one could also do better.
Great vacation ....great hotel!!
The service was excellent for a 3 star hotel. Rooms are clean and large. Upgraded to a 2 room ocean view suite for 20 bucks a night. The staff is very friendly. Was there in Jan 2003 and will be going back next year. Best nachos around and steak and lobster tail for 13 dollars. Been to Cabo, Puerto Vallarta and Cancun, The Holiday Inn Mazatlan was a great bargain!!!!
Stay here you won't regret it
This is an excellent hotel. The rooms are spacious, exceptionally clean. The bathrooms immaculant. The lobby, and surrounding areas are lovely. The pool and swim up bar great. It is on a very nice and clean beach. The staff is very friendly. I did have breakfast buffet one morning and found that it was geared more to the Mexican taste. There is a substantial breakfast menu, and would suggest ordering from that. There is a very nice outdoor restaurant located next to the pool on the property. Loads of restaurants to choose from in the immediate area. I would recommend this hotel without reservation, I am sure that anyone staying there would love it.
Great Pool at Holidy Inn
We spent Jan 10-24 at the Holiday Inn and found it to have spacious, clean rooms. We were on the street side which was a bit noisy. The best feature of the hotel is the infinity pool: it is heated, large and has a swim up bar. Bar staff were all friendly. The hotel is right on the beach and within walking distance of great restaurants. The hotel restaurant was pretty pricey compared to the places around it, so venture out and try dinner at El Botete across the street, Locos Locos or Tony's up the beach or Carlos and Lucia's right next door, to name just a few.
Good value
After a bad experience in a cheap place, we moved to the Holiday Inn and enjoyed the rest of our vacation. The streetside room had a bit of traffic noise but nothing you couldn't handle. The room was clean and well maintained (the hotel is undergoing renovation and I think we got one of the renovated rooms). Location is great - you can walk easily to the Golden Zone and to the north. Try the beach walk to Restaurant Loco's Loco's 300 m north! Service was great - I asked for a noisy AC fan to be fixed and it was done within 10 minutes. Poolside bar great - just wish the happy hour lasted all day! We would stay here again.
Good Value
Good service and great location. We only paid for a garden view but they upgraded us at no cost to an ocean view. Which we didn't even ask them to. Only a ten minute walk to town your right on the beach great pool.
Great for spring break
I went here several years ago but because there was only one review I thought I would ad my 2 cents. I went for spring break and loved it.
Right when we got there it was happy hour and the pool was beautiful. I couldn't even tell it was your Holiday Inn. It was beautiful I would recommend it to anyone who was on a budget. It is right on the beach and walking distance to everything. The rooms were very clean and the staff was helpful. Save your money and spend it in Mexico.
A family oriented holiday
we have been coming to the resort since 1987 at least once a year...and have a wonderfurl holiday each and everytime. the service,from the desk to the food have all been above average in my experience. we would highly recommend this resot to anyone hoping to have a quality vacation

As Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Forces in World War II, General Eisenhower had been given information about the Nazi concentration camp system well before he led the invasion to liberate Western Europe (June, 1944). Reports on the massive genocide inflicted on Jews, Gypsies, political prisoners, homosexuals, dissidents, and other groups by the Schutzstaffel (SS) had been circulated among all the Allied leaders. Very few of the Allied commanders, however, had an accurate conception of what is now known to the world as the Holocaust until their troops began to encounter the death camps as they marched into Western Germany.
During WWII, General Eisenhower ordered every citizen of Gotha, Germany to tour a concentration camp. After seeing the camp, the mayor hanged himself.

Fighting the Stigma of Cross Stitch!
Cross stitch has become a bigger and bigger part of my life in recent years. It's always annoyed me that there hasn't been the kind of kits and patterns that I want to stitch so my solution was to make them myself. There is still a stigma with cross stitch that it is a 'granny craft' and although I believe there is a lot of beauty to traditional cross stitches I want to create modern and fun patterns and stitches that can appeal to a new generation of stitchers.
Everything in my shop is unique to Rather Unseamly. I spend the time thinking up the designs and creating them. Nothing goes into my shop unless it is something I want to stitch and if I believe the design will appeal to a modern audience. Often enough I find myself with at least 3 of my patterns on the go at once!
I find inspiration from all over the shot. Sometimes it's something I see online through blogs, Facebook or videos. Sometimes it's some sarcastic comment that a friend has made. Sometimes even I don't know where my designs pop into my head from!
I'm always looking for new ways for cross stitches to be more than just pretty designs. I'm currently developing a range of kits and I'm starting to look into cross stitch jewellery. So stay tuned because 2015 is going to be an exciting year!
Monochrome Leaping Reindeer and Snowflake Pattern.
A simple design that would look great framed in a hoop to be hung on a wall at Xmas time.
Using full stitches and only one colour means this is an ideal pattern for beginners or a quick stitch for pros!
Would make up into a great Christmas themed gift.
Pattern measures 60x60 stitches meaning it will fit in a 5inch hoop when stitched on 14 count Aida.
You will NOT receive a physical product. This pattern is available for instant download as soon as checkout is completed - no need to wait for it to be emailed!
Included in our pattern is a colour pattern chart, floss legends in DMC, and finished picture of the item.
Due to the electronic nature of the pattern, no refunds can be given after the file has been downloaded.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to open the file, which you can download for free here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
These designs are copyright Beki Harrison 2013. You may stitch them yourself and give the finished products as a gift, but you may not share, distribute, re-sell the pattern, or sell the finished product for profit.

Biography of Billie Holiday
Billie Holiday (April 7, 1915 July 17, 1959), born Eleanora Fagan and later called Lady Day, was an American jazz singer. Billie Holiday had a difficult childhood, which greatly affected her life and career. Much of her childhood is clouded by conjecture and legend, some of it propagated by her autobiography, Lady Sings the Blues, published in 1956. This account is known to contain many inaccuracies. Her professional pseudonym was taken from Billie Dove, an actress she admired, and Clarence Holiday, her probable father. At the outset of her career, she spelled her last name "Halliday," presumably to distance herself from her neglectful father, but eventually changed it back to "Holiday." Holiday's grandfather was one of 17 children of a black Virginia slave and a white Irish pla...

St. Johns Christian spoiled Coastal Christians senior night in Mount Pleasant this Tuesday, dealing the Cougars a 66-46 loss in both teams regular season finale.
The loss has little effect on the Cougars standing headed into the SCISA Class A Region III tournament. Coastal Christian (7-11, 2-8) will still enter as the No. 5 seed against No. 4 seed Cathedral on Thursday. St. Johns (12-6, 6-4) remains the No. 3 seed and will face No. 2 Faith Christian.
Coastal overcame a four-point deficit in the first quarter to pull within a point of St. Johns at the half, despite not converting a single field goal in the second quarter. The Cougars shot just 24 percent from the field in the first half, but limited St. Johns to 17 percent. St. Johns shot 10-13 from the free-throw line to maintain the advantage in the first half.
Coastals shooting woes continued in the second half while St. Johns ran away with the win. Damian Hurta sparked the St. Johns offense with 11 points in the third quarter. Jalen Ward scored nine points in the fourth and Hurta added another seven.
Hurta and Ward both finished with 21 points, combining for 30 points in the second half. Raequan Gregg led Coastal with 17 points on 5-27 shooting, while Sam Fletcher added 11.

An Aiken man was detained in connection with a Christmas Eve home invasion, during which a man was shot in the face, according to the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
Jamal Raheem Richardson, 17, was charged with attempted murder, first-degree burglary and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. He was placed in the Aiken County detention center, where he remained on Friday afternoon.
Aiken Public Safety responded to a home invasion on Mockingbird Lane in Aiken just after 9 a.m. on Dec. 24. One victim, 20-year-old Cody Leonard, had been shot in the face but was able to speak with officers, according to a sheriff's report.
Investigators obtained statements from multiple victims inside the home, who said three unknown black males entered the home and held them at gunpoint, the report stated. They threatened to shoot the victims and demanded narcotics and money, police said.
One suspect reportedly went over to Leonard and shot him in the face while he was lying on the floor, police said.
Leonard was last reported in stable condition.
One of the victims said the three suspects had knocked on the door of the home the night before and asked to purchase narcotics, according to the report. The victim said he told them they don't sell narcotics, at which point the suspects left.
The first officers on scene engaged in a foot chase with the suspects, who witnesses said ran into a vacant home on Robinhood Trail, police said. Law enforcement made entry and found no one inside. Multiple agencies, including the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division, aided in the search for the suspects.
The Sheriff's Office is still seeking two more suspects in connection with the case; however, the only descriptive information the report lists is that they are black males with black hair and brown eyes, and that one was wearing a camouflage hoodie while the other was wearing a dark-colored hoodie.
Richardson was charged in October with second-degree burglary and grand larceny in connection with a burglary in the Houndslake subdivision, according to Aiken Public Safety. A 16-year-old boy was also charged in that incident.
Teddy Kulmala covers the crime and courts beat for the Aiken Standard and has been with the newspaper since August 2012. He is a native of Williston and majored in communication studies at Clemson University.

Small men aren't polarizing figures.
You have to stand tall to move other people to extremes, to be a hero to some and a villain to others.
No coach in South Jersey basketball ever stood taller than Clarence Turner, who died Sunday at the age of 81.
No coach - no figure in South Jersey sports history, really - ever moved more people to more divergent opinions than the man who took Camden High School basketball to national prominence.
Some people hated Turner's approach.
