Was looking for a family hotel with children’s pool and an adult pool. . This resort had everything. From children’s activity, beach. The breakfast was great and the attention by the staff as well. I will be repeating this. I recommend it.

It's a really safe and peaceful hotel. The beach is right in front of the hotel. Their swimming pools are also really beautiful. The bedrooms are spacious and clean. Customer service was excellent.

Excelente hotel! tiene sus años pero los espacios son muy generosos, la playa es tranquila, limpia y privada.. piscina muy grande y apta para niños y familias. Muy amable el personal
Francisco, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Es un hotel súper familiar, la pasamos muy bien, la habitación cómoda, buenas camas, aire funcionaba bien. El desayuno estuvo bien, es una buena relación precio calidad, la playa tranquila, tienen 20 carpas, toca llegar temprano, porque si no no encuentras carpa. Mis hijos amaron la piscina de niños, estuvieron horas, un plus fue que tuvieron recreación y la pasaron increíble, los cócteles del bar muy buenos, el personal muy amable Nosotros por las noches pedimos por rappi y si llegan algunos restaurantes. Recomendado para viajes con niños, mis hijos ya quieren volver. Lo único por mejorar el servicio de toallas en la piscina, al ser un fin de semana movido, se demoraban en reponer

4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great time at this hotel. It has a big pool and a separate one for the little kids. It has access to the beach and was very quiet and clean. The staff was truly amazing, always helping and welcoming. We decided to stay three nights and really enjoy everything the hotel offered and I think it was more than enough time. The food at the restaurant was great, it included the breakfast but I think they have reasonable prices for lunch and dinner or just snacks. I booked for my two boys, my mom and my niece, we had the bedroom with two queen beds and a sofa bed in the living room, two bathrooms, balcony, dinning room and a small kitchen at the entrance. I think the kitchen area can use some update or just remove it completely, the furniture in general can be outdated but overall was very clean and pleasant. It worked for us because we really wanted to enjoy the beach and pools but be aware is far from the city and not a walkable area outside the hotel. I truly recommended for families looking to get relaxed
The sunset was amazing at the beach or the pool

The only thing that bugged me was the black water that came out of the sink and shower head when they were emptying some things out. But it got fixed quick after it happened.

The hotel is far away from stores and transportation is very expensive to go to certain locations. The room I reserved was different to the one I had to stay.

4/10 Fair

Muy Malllllll

Realmente no fue una buena experiencia. De entrada pagamos un valor que decía IMPUESTO INCLUIDO y después había un texto en letra pequeña que decía, entre otras cosas, que POSIBLEMENTE nos podían cobrar el 19%d de iva. Pero como ya habíamos cancelado todo, estábamos claros. Oh sorpresa, al llegar, esa no era la tarifa final, había que sumar el IVA. razón por la cual me molesté y se los hice saber. Los llamaron a ustedes, hotels. com, según ellos y la respuesta fue, que pena igual tiene que pagar. por otro lado, la atención, terribleeeee, pedimos un almuerzo que se demoró demasiado, los platos luego para recogerlos, nunca llegaron, en cambio los animales si todos se acercaban a picar de las sobras. Igualmente pedimos al día siguiente unas bebidas, para que el mesero llegara primero, alrededor de 30 minutos y luego del pedido, otros 30 minutos para traer 4 bebidas básicas, y después de haber preguntado 3 veces por las bebidas. En la otra reserva que hice para unos amigos, que el hotel estaba lleno y entonces les dieron un apartamento, con una cama queen incómoda. Por qué aceptan la reserva si no tienen capacidad???? Pedí a Hotels.com que las camas fueran king y no dos queen, en el hotel me dicen que ellos no manejan camas king, cómo eso no lo sabe hotels.com???? y por qué me deja continuar en el proceso??????
