Our stay at the hotel was excellent. V clean nice view and amenities v good. Rafael was very accommodating and very considerate. Staff v attentive and helpful providing lots of useful information about the island and best coffee in town.
The room was beautiful with a perfect view. The hotel and the entire staff are magnificent, helpful, and and very friendly. We were absolutely happy with the hotel. However, the restaurant was OK, but not really great food.
I think this is the second best hotel in the island, but our room for sure had the best view. Deborah was the best host, from check in, to information and everything else. She is awesome.
Wonderful stay! Rooms are spotless and the staff went out of their way for us. The shower was phenomenal! Would stay here again for sure. Highly recommend.

Habitación con mal olor, al abrir la ventana, venía el olor del horno del restaurante y dejaba la ropa pasada a humo. No logramos que se sequen ropas de baño, wetsuits para los tours.
El lavamanos tenía problemas y uno lo dejaron sin arreglar.
Pedimos desayunos para llevar el día anterior y no estuvieron listos a la hora solicitada - lo que nos generó casi perder el tour.
Indica que el desayuno inicia 6:30am. Bajamos a esa hora y tampoco estaba listo. El desayuno también es poco variado y el jugo hay que pedirlo, no te lo puedes servir.
Hoteles.como debe actualizar que el check in es a las 13:00 horas y check out a las 10:00 horas.
Nice hotel that has had a make-over in the past few years. Staff very helpful and accommodations in the rooms very nice. The hallways and areas between main lobby and rooms could use some improvement, given the price, the overall feel of the place is not super luxury. The food in the restaurant was superb. We had the complementary breakfast (which was extraordinary) plus two dinners and a lunch which were all exceptional. The restaurant staff seemed like they were nearly all new to the job and were a bit inexperienced, compared to the very high quality and presentation of the food. Overall, a pleasant place, at a price....
WiFi did not reach our room. Price was a bit on the high side for the quality & service.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
twice the price
the hotel was nice enough though it needs a little touch up as it is a tiny bit tired. the bed was lovely and the breakfast was nice. the view from our room was shabby and uncared for not at all what i expected especially when paying 220 dollars a night. you can get a hotel for half the price which is twice as nice 300 metres down the road. which we did.

Könnte schön sein
Zimmer hatte eine grausige Ausicht auf eine Bauruine. Im weiss gefliesten Badezimmer klebten schwarze lange Haare auf dem Boden. Frühstück ist sehr übersichtlich. Viele Einrichtungen (Jacuzzi, Sundeck) waren nicht in Betrieb. Personal größten Teils überfordert. Value for Money stimmt nicht. Könnte mit etwas Hotel-Know-how eine Perle werden.
Solid hotel but needs some improvements (has been open for less then a year.
CONS
- Black out blinds do nothing. Room fills with light so bring a sleep mask. Also bring ear plugs for nearby roosters.
-AC is super loud
-TV all Spanish channels. Need some English channels
-Wifi is poor in the rooms. Much stronger in the lobby.
-Need more power outlets especially near bed
-Dinner is slow. Pizza took 30-45 min
-Breakfast should be buffet. Not limited options
PROS
-Awesome location. Beach with sea lions in front. Next to malecon
-Friendly staff (especially Manolo who is awesome!)
-Big clean rooms
-Shower and sink good pressure and hot water.
El Hotel es Excelente, la atención es aún mejor, te hacen sentir como en tu casa y a la vez te prestan un servicio 5 estrellas de la más alta calidad.
En el restaurante la comida de realmente Gourmet y las pizzas (al horno de leña) son Imperdibles así como un cóctel en la barra con vista al mar. Regresaría una y mil veces sin dudarlo.
Gracias por la excelente estadía y las atenciones!!!!!
