The entire staff was very friendly and super helpful throughout our stay. We personally love that this is a smaller hotel, and all the tenants were nice and respected quite times.

"He had a great stay at the Seis Playas Hotel. There were 2 employees that made our stay feel more special: Tania at the front desk and a gentleman at the restaurant/bar, I believe that his name is Jesús, but I am not sure, off of the 2 employees that assisted us during our stay, he was the younger, with a small mustache. We could feel their genuine interest in us, not only as clients, but made you feel a warmth that we really enjoyed. The facilities were very clean."
