We loved staying at the playita. Great quiet place very clean and close to a lot of restaurants and 2 steps down to the beach. The cafecito in the morning was my favorite thing every morning. We love chatting with Mary and playing with coco and arena, the 2 dogs in the hotel. We will be back!

This was a nice, minimalist hotel for our stay. More of a boutique hotel. Just steps from the beach, with some cute pups and kitties on the grounds. The restaurant was ok, not our favorite of the trip, but not bad. Relatively quiet, but if you're sensitive to the sounds of other guests outside your window, then bring earplugs.

I thought it was a cute hotel. It’s right by ocean, so you can just get up and be on the beach in seconds. They have a really cute restaurant inside open for dinner. We got us an appetizer and a few drinks before we went exploring for the evening.

If you are looking for a no frills but beautiful stay near the beach look no further. The property abuts two gorgeous beaches literally steps away from the hotel. Breakfast is simple and included. Staff are accommodating and kind. Daily housekeeping! The owner, Alberto, was knowledgeable and welcoming. The hotel also has a great restaurant open on the weekends that is wonderful! Overall, I’d give a 10/10.
