Having a full kitchen and steps from the beach is a convenient way to enjoy the beach as much as possible!

Reviewer Comments:
As always our stay at El Constante was enjoyable. The staff is the best. The condos are always immaculate and stocked with the basic necessities. It is a wonderful place to stay for families. This is why we keep coming back. First with our children and now with our grandchildren. The only negative comment I have is while it is wonderful that it is receiving a complete makeover be prepared for the noise and obstruction of views that comes witb renovation.

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed here with every intention of going to the beach right outside the property but with the constant craziness of the public drive to the beach adjacent to the property it was just too much. The room was dirty with mold in the window sill, the ceiling was paper thin (you'd think giants were upstairs, but they were just children), and the whole place under construction (I wish I had known beforehand). The pool was always full of people not even staying at the hotel; one lady who was staying there literally passed out in the pool while we were there.... not fun. We were happy to check out at the unreasonably early 11am.
