    beautiful grounds
    easy accessibility
    inviting atmosphere
    limited activities
    lack of on-site services

    The beautiful grounds were well-maintained and incredibly inviting, making it easy for me to stroll comfortably among the tropical plants and down to the nearby beach.

    More recreational activities for seniors would be beneficial.

    Great spot right by the beach. The bungalow I stayed in was spacious and comfortable. Dining was fantastic, especially the Arroz con Pollo. Staff was friendly and always helpful. Perfect location for relaxation and walks.

    great beach access and nearby national park for exploring

    I really enjoyed being so close to Marino Las Baulas National Park, making it easy to explore and stroll through the beautiful landscapes. The beach was just a few steps away, perfect for soaking up the sun and refreshing swims.

    inviting pools
    great recommendations
    worn mattress

    great amenities but mixed room comfort

    The pools were inviting with a refreshing vibe, perfect for lounging after a day at the beach. I truly enjoyed playing table tennis, which added some fun to our stay. The staff provided exceptional local recommendations that enhanced our experience. Enjoying cocktails at sunset from the bar was a delightful bonus. The lush garden view added serenity to our surroundings.

    The mattress in the room could use some updating, as it felt a bit worn.

    overpriced meals
    noisy environment

    Lovely pools and grounds.

    I was disappointed with the overpriced meals at the restaurant. They were small and lacked flavor, not what I expected at all. Additionally, the room was noisy due to its proximity to the street and other guests, making it hard to relax or sleep.

    Beach Vibes & Friendly Staff

    Had a lovely 3-night stay! The location is super close to the beach, and we enjoyed chilling by the two pools. The staff were really cool and helped us set up surf lessons. The food at the restaurant was tasty, though a bit pricey compared to local spots. The lock on our sliding door was wobbly, but they fixed it right away.

    tropical garden
    yoga classes
    overpriced restaurant
    room upkeep
    limited breakfast options

    The experience was incredible, highlighted by the beautiful tropical garden filled with wildlife and the superb yoga classes available on-site. The access to the beach was unmatched, especially during the low season when it felt almost private. However, the on-site restaurant felt overpriced compared to local dining options, and the room could have benefited from some upkeep. Breakfast offerings included delightful corn flakes, but overall, it felt like a mixed bag in terms of value.
