Hotel is past its prime and in need of some maintenance. Expensive for what it is. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Beach at the hotel is not for swimming but many very nice and secluded beaches are less than 20mins by car.

Clean room. Lovely resort to walk around and nicely lit paths to walk around resort at night. Nice free breakfast menu ( the French Toast was delicious). Good access to beach. Would be better if lighting in the room was brighter.

10/10 Exceptional

Quiet resort on the bay. Beautiful nearby beach (bahia rajada). Very good food. Pleasant waiters. A la carte breakfast is nice but repetitive and buffet breakfast on weekend is adequate. Rooms: clean but somber. Bed and AC are good. Limited hot water. The highlight here is the kite surfing and no crowds.

10/10 Exceptional

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this lovely hotel. It is extremely family friendly. The levels in the pool are great for playing games: the swim bar is fun: the excellent appetizer platter was enough to feed a huge group and was tasty. The rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. We will be back.

Would definitely stay again. The staff were all great, there were many restaurants within a couple minute drive, and the beach was beautiful and quiet. Sand quality is not as good as some others, but there are dozens of beaches within 5-10 minutes or so. Rooms were spacious and as clean as you can really get on a tropical beach.

Beautiful beach!

We got married on the peaceful quiet beautiful beach here. It was in October and there was one other family staying at the property so it was like we’d rented out the whole place. It is very basic and not easy to get to, but once you arrive, they’ve got a nice pool and restaurant to enjoy yourself and your family.
