Cool modern hotel. Front staff was great. Elevator worked inconsistently, so had to take stairs to third floor. Hard on my husband with joint replacements. Room are small but nice. Only one chair on the deck. Really loud on the street from cars blasting the stereo, and the top floor deck blasts music till about 9 pm. Good for parties but not so much for us old folks who turn in early. But a nice place overall.

During my stay, I unfortunately experienced food poisoning. When I approached the concierge for assistance in obtaining medication, I was told that I would have to wait until morning, as the hotel did not have any remedies or resources available to help.

We loved everything! All the workers were very nice and friendly. The hotel is in a perfect location with two beaches right in front, and several restaurants within walking distance. We also enjoyed the beach chairs they let you borrow, and the DJ rooftop set.

Great location and service

We checked in on thanksgiving and stayed for one night. The hotel was very busy. The staff were super helpful with check in, recommending restaurants around and places to snorkel. The hotel restaurant Placita has nice thanksgiving dinner which we booked ahead of time. The location of the hotel is very nice since it is right across the meeting point of Taino bio bay kayak tour. It is also close to a few restaurants with vegetarian options. Right across the hotel there's a place for renting golf carts and snorkelling gear as well. The hotel room is comfortable but the AC is always very cold even though we turn up the temperature already. There's no TV in the room. Rooftop is very nice, with a bar and a hot tub there. The checkout time is at noon, they allow us to store our luggage there for a few hours there, and when we come back they let us use the shower and lent us beach towels without charge before we head to the airport. Probably the best hotel in Esperanza and the most convenient if you're going to bio bay.
