Location right on the beach (as the name suggests). A short walk from the restaurants, shops,etc. 2 bed apartment was very spacious and ours had its own washing machine and dryer. Very comfortable. Receptionist was extremely helpful and accommodated a room move, when there was a minor problem with our initial room.

Don Pancho is in a premium location. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations, and will be very impressive when finished. It was comfortable, good room sizes and we enjoyed a wonderful beach view. We even spotted a few whales from our balcony! The staff were all very friendly and attentive. When I visit the area in the future, I would happily stay at Don Pancho again.

The room above us was a nightmare, kids jumping screaming, you can also here them walking above us, this went on up until 12:30 and first up in the morning. The place was old but clean and there were workers upgrading the place and was not advised that there pool was getting a make over, would have loved to know when I booked the property.

Stunning views of the Ocean whilst lucky enough to spot the Whales from the Hotels balcony. I Most certainly recommend Don Pancho By The Beach.

Booked a poolside apartment but arrived to find I was next to a construction site. Workers and heavy machinery going from 7.30 to 4 working on the pool and their adjacent units. So much for a relaxing holiday. The scaffolding was 2.5m from my “poolside” entrance. No notice or apology offered for my booking
