Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has its highs and lows. The rooms were below expectations with cleanliness issues and maintenance issues, including a mildew odor and broken air conditioning. On the positive side, the location was delightful, right in front of the beach and with stunning ocean views. Service was commendable, particularly with the personable and kind Antonio Rosa, though room service could use improvement.
I was thrilled with my stay at this hotel! The rooms were beyond our wildest dreams, large, well-appointed, and filled with so many design details that left me in awe. However, there were some issues like the room being at 85 degrees, a mildew odor, non-working lighting, a broken air conditioner, and no hot water. The entrance of the room had some concerns as well, but overall, my room experience was unforgettable.
I just stayed at this hotel and let me tell you, it was a mixed experience. The rooms were absolutely stunning, exceeding all our expectations with their size, design, and attention to detail. However, we did face some issues like the room being too warm at 85 degrees, no hot water, and broken shower tiles. The service, without any hotel skills, was truly delightful and accommodating, but I wish the rooms were better maintained. The location in front of the beach was incredibly comforting and offered breathtaking views, but we could see some areas in the rear view mirror that needed attention. The dining experience was good with traditional fish options, but the facilities could use some improvements. Overall, it was a memorable stay with its ups and downs.
