This is such an underrated place. If you are on this beach or need a clean, friendly, all around perfect place to stay, this is it.

The El Governor is by far mine and my husband's favorite place to stay when we want to get away for a beach vacation. The rooms are clean. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. The housekeeping dept is great they even leave a towel exchange bag at your door everyday for easy towel exchange. The management and employees are great. They even simplified check out with a sign to hang on your door. The atmosphere is great and the beach is so relaxing with beautiful sunsets. They have a great gift shop with everything you need. Love this place!!!

We are very pleased with our stay at El Governor resort. Highly recommend. We are planning to go back again in about 2 weeks. Enjoyed Mexico Beach. More family oriented. 👍Up.

Glad to see it rebuilt and reopen. One of a kind beach experience, sitting on your balcony 50 yards from the surf. Staff is great.

We visited the El Governor during the week of Thanksgiving 2023. We are so glad that the hotel renovation is complete. All rooms are complete with balcony and full kitchen. The beach is especially beautiful, calm and peaceful. This year we are celebrating Thanksgiving and also our 58th wedding anniversary. Our days at El Governor could not have been better. The staff are so helpful and kind that we felt like family. Thank you for a perfect trip. We so look forward to staying with you again.

We came in on Thanksgiving afternoon, hadn’t eaten, checked in, asked the girls behind the desk what might be open for food and they said nothing but go right in the back here and get you a plate. They had just had their staff Thanksgiving and offered us a plate. Very kind, very respectful, very nice room, great view and we just enjoyed our much needed relaxing restful long weekend. Thank you, El Governor, Mexico, Beach Florida Sincerely, Sean and Roni Davis

Room was very nice. View of the beach from the balcony was a big plus. Large fridge in the room was great to store our beverages and lunch stuff. Staff is great! Killer Seafood (mmm, Killer Tacos) is only 1/2 mile away. Don't overlook this place. We will be back!

Stayed 1 night. Walked in. What super friendly staff. Beautiful room. Super clean. We will recommend highly.

We have always enjoyed our stay at the El Govenor. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. We have been coming here for 30 plus years and have never been disappointed. Till next time! The Richards Family.

Everyone was very helpful and curiosity. It was very clean. The room had everything we needed for our stay. We will be back

Evacuated SGI for the night. The staff have been great. The rooms are nicely decorated and have a full size range and refrigerator. Great location. Covered parking is available. Great beach access and views.

This hotel has been “Crowned”👑 my family favorite hotel. This hotel is so clean and spotless. The hotel came with everything from mugs,cups,plates,coffee maker, utensils, iron and iron board, blow dryer and etc. They definitely invested in this property to make sure the customers get the best experience. The beach was heaven, the fact that the rooms overlook the beach was breathtaking. Thank you so much El Governor, can’t wait to book with you again!!!!

What an absolutely wonderful rebuild they have done! Everything is bright and super clean. You literally could throw a rock into the gulf! I love the new lvp flooring throughout. The towels are super plush! Everything you could possible need for a meal prep is provided. We spent 2 super windy chilly days and didn’t mine a bit because we could watch and listen to the waves lap in the comfort of our room. The people that run El Governor are extremely nice and helpful. Congratulations on a hugely successful comeback!

This is a wonderful place. Every room has an unbelievable view and easy beach access. It is low key, relaxed, and peaceful. Rooms are clean and well equiped. Excellent staff interaction from booking to checkout.

We’ve been coming here for years and we’re so glad to see the place restored with careful attention to the way it used to be while still giving graceful nods to the future of Mexico Beach. The El Governor holds a special place in my heart on a very personal level. It is a peaceful throwback to how the Forgotten Coast once was.
