Liked most everything. No dresser for clothes was a bit of a turn-off and additional cost for a bar fridge. I’ve never stayed in a place in Huatulco that did not have these basic options. Overall though pleased with the rest of the stay

The staff were great! We have stayed at this hotel before and it was clean. This time we would not even use the towels as they were so dirty and threadbare. Our air conditioner quit three times however the staff were quick to fix. The last night there a drunk someone who broke down the door across from us as he was locked out and fighting with another person inside. Called the desk several times with no answer. The situation could have been far worse. Will not stay there again ever!!

This property has wonderful and helpful staff, that respond as best they can to your needs. The positives were kind staff and great location in Santa Cruz. Rooms are in need of upgrades and repair. I changed rooms due to dripping a/c. My biggest concern was the last 5 days I did not feel it was safe to use the pool due to its murky waters and floating/sinking unknown materials. I was told each day it would be cleaned, then told it was clean but they were missing a chemical. That was unacceptable to me. I would not return to this hotel, or recommend it.
