Los camastros pocos y en mal estado, el hotel ya vio pasar sus mejores días, perros dentro del hotel y en el área del restaurante pidiendo comida, el excremento de los perros en la arena de la playa, hacen sus necesidades frente a la gente

Fourth time at El Alquimista. The hotel is really showing its age. The recent storms have taken a toll. Instead of investing in the property each year, the property has stayed the same over the past four years. The fixtures and fittings are showing age, the menu hasn’t changed, the loungers are worn. I’m sad to say that my time at El Alquimista is over. On to find a new hotel in the area.
