Excellent service, friendly vibe
Lovely rooms, nice pool area, private access to the beach. The staff was welcoming and very helpful. They do accept pets so you may hear some yapping dogs. They have surfboard and paddle rentals on site and can help you with all of your tours. If you want a very low-key beach vibe this is a place for you.

Excellent place and service! Just a couple of details that bothered me... 1) for a few hours I had to leave my vehicle not in the corresponding parking lot since the space was occupied by people other than the tenants... a situation that does not seem to me since we are staying and we must have priority. 2) There are few food options near the place, therefore we had to choose to eat at the hotel restaurant! The truth is very delicious but prices a little excessive! 3) The network connection never worked in the room.
