10/10 Excellent
"I was pleased with the cleanliness and the free buffet breakfast. The staff is pleasant and professional. I had a good experience during my stay. They have a new policy of charging $20 for your pet staying in your room. Just be aware and make accommodations in advance."

Hostería Punta Blanca

10/10 Excellent
"This was a beautiful property to stay at for my wife's birthday! And it was my baby's first time at a real pool too - which was very clean and relaxing. The room was also clean and the bed was sooooo comfortable. I was really impressed by how helpful the staff were, it's been a very long time since I have experienced staff carrying luggage to our rooms for us. They also brought in a crib and set it up for us too. Food can be bought onsite, as well as receiving a nice breakfast. There's a whole cabinet of necessary supplies in the reception area should you forget something important, or just not feel like bringing a lot of stuff. A very memorable and relaxing time, and we took so many lovely pictures by the pool waterfall which they turned on just for us. Oh, and this was something I really enjoyed that others might not but, there were a few large frogs surrounding the pool, which gave it a more natural yet clean feel."
