The staff were really friendly. The room was spacious enough for a family of 4 adults. It was close to Playa Carrillo and only 15min drive from Samara. The steakhouse attached to the hotel was also delicious! We ate there both nights. Highly recommend this stay to experience a more local beach town!

This is a sweet little family friendly place. The young lady who checked us in (sorry for the spelling) Ballidia was very helpful with everything we asked, she even hooked us up with Rene of Horse Paradise for an amazing ride along the beach and up to a breath taking view in the jungle.
