"El hotel estaba en buenas condiciones, personal atento, lo único malo fueron los colchones que tenían un forro de plástico muy grueso e incómodo, no nos dejó descansar bien, era como dormir sobre una colchoneta"

"Excelente! Habitación y baño amplios, linda piscina privada y hamaca para descanso. Linda piscina y playa a un paso. Ideal el supermercado con precios razonables. Precioso parque con palmeras y arboles en el camino de la habitacion a la playa. No nos gusto la demora en el bar de la piscina y que no alcanzaban las reposeras en la playa. Un aspecto a mejorar, al menos en nuestra habitación, era que no tenia jarra eléctrica ni microondas o algo para cocinar."

"The hotel is beautiful, and the staff is very friendly. Any issues we had were resolved promptly. My main complaint is the inconsistency sometimes the service, food, cleanliness, and hospitality were excellent, and other times very disappointing. Also, there is no safe walkway outside the hotel, so if you enjoy walking, running, or biking, it can be very dangerous."
