I only looked at the Spanish language side.
Looks good overall, clean, straightforward.
One issue I noted right away, the images you're using for your backgrounds do not seem to be well-optimized, which means they take quite a while to appear the first time one visits a given page. (Like 15 seconds or more, an eternity on today's itchy-mouse internet.)
I loaded one background image separately and noticed it was almost about a full megabyte for a 1200 x 803 image. In my experience, an image that size can almost always be data-reduced down to 200-225 KB or even less with little or no evident image degradation. Optimizing all those big images should improve the rendering time of your pages.
Also, agreed with Astral Plane Studios, an embedded contact form will help protect you from spammers. But, failing that, at the
very least, you should use a little bit of 'javascript obfuscation' on your email address to foil spambot email address collectors. (Humans will still be able to harvest it, but a good js obfuscation will stop most spambots unless they are written specifically for the script you're using -- in which case, change some of the variable names to those of your own creation and only the very smartest bots should be able to figure it out. This obfuscator does all the coding for you and looks like it should put a pretty big barrier in front of the bots:
