What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Comfortable Cabañas

The individual cabañas are spacious and functional, featuring a beautiful palm-thatched roof. I found the bed to be extremely comfortable with big pillows. The large bathroom had a lovely Spanish decor that added to the overall charm. Plus, the mosquito net was a lifesaver to keep the tiny pests away during the night!

Beautiful Oceanfront Gardens

The gardens in front of the hotel are stunning, stretching right towards the beach. I loved relaxing in the peaceful garden area with its very nice view of the ocean. It felt like a slice of paradise and was an ideal spot for unwinding after a day of activities.

Convenient Parking

The hotel offers a spacious and well-maintained parking area. It was such a relief to find an easily accessible spot for my vehicle upon arrival, especially since we had a lot of luggage. This made our stay much more convenient!

This resort offers a unique charm with its oceanfront location and spacious casitas, making it feel romantic and cozy. However, the noise from the surrounding area can disrupt sleep, and some amenities are lacking. Dining is generally good, but some aspects could use a little improvement. Overall, it’s a mixed bag, but the ambiance and service make it worth a visit.
