Hotel Joaquin

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at here. The hotel has such a unique and special feel to it. It’s peaceful, intimate and feels like a little hidden gem. All the staff were so wonderful (literally all of them), with a special shoutout to Jordan and Natasha for going above and beyond to make my wife’s birthday extra special with a beautiful ocean view room. The rooms are gorgeous and spotless, breakfast was excellent and plentiful, and the pool area was beautiful, clean and relaxing. You can tell a lot of care goes into this place. We loved our stay are already talking about going back!"
