I loved this hotel. The people were so so nice and it’s super pretty. The only thing I didn’t like is that room service gave me and my boyfriend the opposite of what we asked for.
My family and I had a wonderful stay here. The staff was incredibly friendly and very accommodating to us. We had to add a guest last minute and it was a very quick process. We booked services with the spa, which were also wonderful and easy to book. The pool and beach areas are very well maintained and very picturesque. We also got to use the mini golf course, which the front desk staff provided equipment for.This is a very reasonably priced hotel in a very nice area. I would absolutely stay here again.
At first I was assigned an awful room which did not match the details of what I paid for when I made my reservation. Our front desk host claimed reservations coming from apps like this one, are assigned rooms randomly and they cannot change it manually... so he was "nice enough" to have his manager approve to move us to the room we paid for... everything else was okay. They need new towels, all the property could use some maintenance... the mini-golf course is fun and needs serious maintenance as well.
Hi 👋 the waiter Francesco was great . He spoke very good English and helped us a lot .

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Not really worth the price what they charge for the room.
Water pressure in the shower was poor, warm water was not really there.
Aircon was super loud with rattling noise. Even when we mentioned, nothing changed.
From early in the morning they played loud music next to the room and were talking loud. Not really a long and good sleep. Think there are cheaper and better hotels around this one. Wouldnt come back for that money....
The room #1000 was ok in cleanliness but it was very noisy. Room check-in is strictly enforce at 15:00 no exceptions I notice everyone was asked ro wait. I extended an extra night and did reservation with orbitz app. The hotel moved me from previous room because they said it wasnt the same category? Despite hotel was empty on a Monday. When We arrived on Friday the hotel was very busy on all the amenities (beach, pool, hammock & paybeds) due to overselling day passes. Pool towels need to be checkout with official ID.
The staff was not very helpful and even had attitudes.
Restaurant food was good. I would come back
We arrived in the evening and the first thing they did when we arrived was charge us another 2300 pesos for the same exact room that we already booked and paid for. Due to the late hour, there was no choice but to pay it so we could go to sleep. For that reason alone, the review is 1 star, but it doesn’t end there. The description of the room said partial ocean view but if we opened the curtains all we could see was people at the pool looking INTO OUR ROOM because they put us on the ground level. As for the restaurant, I waited over 40 minutes for food that was unremarkable. It was half as good and double the price compared with the other local restaurants in the area. Go literally anywhere else for food. The beach was nice and there were other nice amenities and events, but it was not enough to compensate for the feeling that they were just making up rules and policies to ask us for more money.
La atención del hotel es grosera, no me dieron la habitación correcta y no quisieron hacer el ajuste, mala experiencia deja en muy mal a Expedia, trataron de decirme que no reservará por la app sino directo con ellos
The hotel service is rude, they did not give me the correct room and they refused to make the adjustment, bad experience reflects poorly on Expedia, they tried to tell me not to book through the app but directly with them.
The worst experience, this property needs an operations manager ASAP. The hotel is located in the beach and the entire time the restaurant did not have fish, sea food or local traditional cuisine, as advertised. Waiters were clueless of missing items and wasted valuable time to tell me they did not have food. Could not even make a salad or club sandwich. There wasn't a bar at the sky bar, wait times were insane. The room did not have towels and had to wait 3 hours and chase the staff to get some clean towels. I asked to talk to the manager and that person is absent. No one paid attention to my situation. The worst: door key did not work and doorknob had to be replaced by slow maintenance personnel. The spa was dirty. Simply horrible from beginning to wnd
Buen hotel ,su personal muy atento su restaurant bien , las enchiladas suizas muy ricas... si ya se que me van a criticar por comer enchiladas, y no mariscos, pero resulta que llegamos un juves ya tarde. Sus albercas bien su bar no tan bueno ..las margaritas no estuvieron buenas... de ahi en fuera todo super
