Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, with plenty of well-spaced sun beds for privacy, creating a relaxing environment. However, there are issues with damp floors, especially in the bathroom. The Master Suite is highly recommended for future bookings.
The hotel offers a cozy and clean stay with spacious, authentically Mexican rooms and excellent service. The location is serene and perfect for relaxation, but lacks some nightlife amenities. The dining experience is exceptional with a wide variety of dishes.
The hotel offers rooms with a mixed design taste but a slightly better view and layout. The indoor and outdoor showers, whirlpool, big terrace with numerous seating possibilities, jacuzzi, and amazing view are highlights. However, there are some inconsistencies in service provided, and the location may be a bit far from the center. The dining experience is fantastic, but service could be more engaging. The facilities are well-equipped.
My stay at the hotel was simply amazing. The room had a balcony with an incredible sea view, and it was ready before the check-in time, which was a nice surprise. The wow factor was definitely the comfy bed, large hot tub for 2, and the beachfront view with a spacious deck to enjoy the scenery.
I had a wonderful experience at the hotel. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious, offering a stunning sea view from the balcony. The service was friendly, although a bit disorganized at times. The location is perfect, situated at a more secluded end of the beach. The dining options were varied and satisfying, and the facilities met my expectations.
