We enjoyed an amazing long weekend. This hotel was perfect. Fire table room. Great pool, hot tub. The pool restaurant in perfect. Nice workout center and amenities. Hotel restaurant is amazing. Over 3 days one dinner was very slow but food outstanding and their service team cares to make your experience amazing. Right from arrival to our departure the staff/team care and want your stay to be fabulous. Thank you for giving us that amazing memorable time together.
Beautifully decorated room and patio. It was simply top-notched for creature comfort - fully-established mini-bar and treats. The shower was incredible - hardware is modern. Robes and slippers were provided. The fire pit is a nice touch to the bottom floor rooms.

Rooms were so thin you can hear everything. EVERYTHING. Might want to think about bringing kids because they will ask questions about what the noise coming from next door is. Other than that, staff is great. Vaga’s food was great.

We booked for 3 nights. Needed to stay an extra night. Staff u helpful and I accommodating. Said we had to look online to see if there was any availability. Not cool. And definitely not what a good hotel should do. They had our card number. They could have extended the stay accordingly and not make us go through that. We ultimately did. Would not recommend staying here. A lot of posturing about this hotel. But it's all smoke and mirrors. Stay somewhere else.
Staff, sunset views, service, food at Vaga! All good!
Room was spacious and lovely. One issue was that the fire pit area in the room as really wet due to the mist/dew from the weather.
A beautiful hotel! Great staff! Great experience from valet to checking in with Kadeem to having drinks made by Nick at the Perch bar to checking out with Ismael. Definitely will be back!
Absolutely amazing. Loved the view from the coastal view room and the food at Vaga was spectacular. They are very accommodating to gluten free guests. The pool staff were very attentive and the day in the cabana was perfect.
The place was amazing. However, the privacy on the fire pit area did not exist. They need to put some kind of barrier between the patios like bamboo stocks. The food in the restaurant was outstanding in the view was amazing. Would definitely come back. They should’ve had blankets already in the rooms for the patio area instead of have to call and get them delivered. Small touches add a lot.
All around outstanding stay at Alilia Marea Resort. The staff was amazing and the resort was beautiful beyond words. I certainly recommend this resort.
Perfect. Property, architecture and interior design were beautiful and well thought out. Room was roomy with picturesque views. Staff was amazing. VAGA restaurant was delicious with more stunning views. The Coffee Box was a great spot for quick delicious breakfast. The Pocket served wonderful cocktails.
