Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Latest offering from La Gloria's oh-so-fab Abriendo Puertas opus features the singer gingerly vamping and chanting over a percolating Latin-house groove. Club DJs are given a wealth of fine remixes to choose from, ranging from Ralphi Rosario and Abel Aguilera's stompin' tribal-house versions to Pablo Flores and Javier Garza's more traditional tropical mixes. Regardless of your choice, you get an ample dose of Estefan's loose, fun performance and a tune built on a tightly constructed melody. Simply put, ya can't lose with this one!"[3]

Chuck Campbell from

New Sunday Times viewed it as "lively merengue", noting that the song features "wonderfully complex horn parts, driving percussion and engaging vocals."[6]
