The Hotel was built in 2015 and is poorly maintained and appears much older. I noted many safety concerns and the staff commented yes we have very poor maintenance, Fire Alarm panel in Trouble, exposed electrical wires and outlet, electrical cord hanging in shower to rinse off from the beach, patio doors not securable, telephone in rooms did not work. One of the Gazebos is ready to collapse, Non-heated Hot tubs, one not working. Had to leave cash tips, food at best is warm and menu extremely limited. Wet bar is a joke with two bags of chips and two cans soda and two cans of beer one lite and one Dos Equis which they ran out of. only one beer available at the bar was Dos Equis lite. Had to make a reservation for dinner when we were the only ones there, made us come back a half hour later and we were still the only ones there. Room was large but the Bed and sheets were damp, pillows were horrible. no hot water only warm to shower. Very disappointed

The food was absolutely horrible so we made plans to eat out and realized we were so bored there that we decided to check out after day 2 of 7 and check in next door at the Playa Paradiso. The pictures do not look like the actual hotel, it looks way worse than the pics. Even though its a small hotel there is never any crowds of people getting food but the service is as slow as molasses. I had about 6 different dishes and didn't finish any of them. There is no maintenance and upkeep of the garden areas of the hotel. It overall was a bad experience and I do not recommend anyone going to this place, I want a refund immediately.

We had water damage in our room and we were moved 3 times. We even had black mold in our room. We called travelocity and they would not move us to another hotel. This was rated a 5 star hotel and yet in wasn't even a 1. I tried to pist pictures, but this review will not allow my photos. I have several to show you

Dear Joseph, Please accept our apologies for the inconveniences experienced in our hotel. Due to a technical problem due to a strong storm in the area that took place during your stay with us, some of the rooms were affected and we had to work hardly to fix all the problems occasioned. Unfortunately you were affected and in order to minimize the inconveniences we offer you to change the room while we fix the problem. For the rest, we have maintenance programs performed regularly according to our calendar in order to keep and maintain our facilities in optimal conditions to operate. Our guest service department and Management took care of you all the time making sure you were confortable. Once again receive our apologies. We hope for the opportunity to see you in a future to demonstrate that we can do it better. Warm regards

you rated this hotel 5 star hotel and it wasn't even a 1 star hotel. We changed rooms 3 times due to water leaking and black mold was found in our room. That was just the start. Travelocity refused to move us to another hotel and forced us to stay there.

My husband and I just returned from our honeymoon trip to this hotel. It. Was. Fantastic! The hotel is a little off the beaten path but truly a hidden treasure. The rooms are humongous, very nicely appointed and so beautiful. The staff is wonderful. We received excellent service every single day. Sarah, Nico, Brian, Sergio and Johanna were some of the waiters that kept our plates and glasses full with smiles. Adelta was one of the housekeepers who kept the room spotless and stocked with whatever we requested. Adrian welcomed us our first day with a nice tour of the grounds and made us feel right at home. It was such a wonderful stay! Observations: 1) the “continental breakfast” is really just fruit and juice, so if you are looking for something more substantial, just wait until regular breakfast begins at 8 2) Order the crispy French toast. Just do it. 3) the drinks were generally good, but Sarah made our favorite pina colada and mojito. She’s a jewel! 4) be sure to visit the jacuzzis at sunset. We kept wanting to try for sunrise but never quite made it. 5) this hotel is perfect for a quiet romantic getaway. If you’re looking for a party, this is not your spot. 6) although there is no beach specifically for this hotel, the pool area is FANTASTIC and so relaxing. Also, public beach area is easily accessible. 7) the food was excellent! Great variety, classy presentation. We were very happy with the menus! We loved our time here and hope you will too!
