Top Playa la Madera Hotel Reviews

Hotel Irma

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place food is great and quiet"

Luxury Oceanfront Condo with Private Plunge Pool and spectacular views.

10/10 Excellent

"Condo was great! Description and photos are spot on! The infinity pool, the plunge pool, and the views are all amazing. Centro area is easily walkable from the condo, maybe about 10-15 minutes via the path along the beach. You go downhill on the walk to Centro, uphill on the way back. There are several restaurants on Madera beach within a 5-8 minute walk. The area the condo is in is very hilly so be forewarned, if mobility is an issue, use the taxis out front. The building does have an elevator. Taxi stand is literally outside the condo entrance. There was always at least two taxis there, no need to call or waive one down. 60-80 pesos will get you pretty much anywhere in Cento or La Ropa. Julien was very accommodating and super responsive. Condo has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The property itself was quiet, the pool area has lots of seating and tables. Wish we could have stayed longer. "
