10/10 Exceptional

Note: it is far from the beach. You will need a taxi to take you to and from the beach. Which is around $20 round trip. All the restaurants and stores are at the beach. BUT other than that, the resort is amazing. I’d say spend a day at the beach because that’s all you really need. The resort has a nice pool, bar, skatepark, gym and restaurant. The room is comfortable. Nice shower, cozy bed. AC. No bugs or dirt.

This hotel is tucked away from the town but feels like a little resort. The wading pool was refreshing with views of monkeys above in the trees. The food was quite good.

A very negative point. The internet was not available in the rooms and there was a strong smell of damp. On the positive side, the staff was very friendly and the breakfast was very good.

They have bugs in the rooms. Very scary. My room was upgraded but bugs in the rooms. Spiders, ants and even a centipede. Staff is really nice though. But try avoiding staying here due to bugs..

Good Stay

The stay was great, I had a blast with my family and the rooms were comfy, although I do have to point out that my Villa had an issue with one of the doors, the lock that should've kept one of the doors close was broken or something, thing is, it was open. Thankfully the villa had 2 bedrooms that coud be locked from the inside, but it is a downside.

2/10 Poor

Very nice but note that you have to cross a river to get there specially when it rains recomend to have a 4x4, it’s close to the town in car too far to go walking. and if you’re an early bird you won’t be able to drink coffee or anything before 8 Am which was an inconvenience for us since we were awake early. Also if you want to check out or leave before 7:30 AM you have to let them know ahead of time because there’s only the security guard and he’s not allowed to let anybody go before the receptionist gets there to make sure you don’t have any bills pending at the restaurant or any charges pending. The beds are very uncomfortable and sounds like it’s going to break but it’s affordable price the pool was clean and it’s not that deep perfect for kids
