Incredibly disappointing experience at this hotel. The staff at the beach bar were so unhelpful and took over an hour to complete a simple order – which they only did once I went to reception to complain. Really horrible and expensive food with limited choice (I had read about this before going but it was worse than I expected). Far from luxury with beach beds in a messy organisation on the beach front and not enough of them for all the guests. The only nice thing was the hotel room. Don't waste your money!

Nice place to stay
This is a resort style hotel. The all place really feels like an island setting. The cheapest accmodation is still very nicely decorated, efficient and the air conditioning works great 24/7. The outdoor bathroom makes the all experience unique. Even though hot water is not available the temperature was still very comfortable. Also the music played at the bar area is a very Low volume so you can relax under the sun. The service is great, very friendly and helpful staff from the garden to the receptionist. The only thing that needs improvements are the dessert at supper,otherwise the buffet has several choices.

Overall this was a really great hotel and experience, but we have a few thoughts after our stay. Pros: - One of the most stunning hotels I’ve ever traveled to, and for an affordable price. - The beachfront bungalows are gorgeous and recently updated, they have AC and comfortable amenities. - Eder & Sergio at the bar. And the piña coladas. Delightful - STUNNING swimming area, crystal clear water and soft white sand. Exceeded our expectations - Wifi was surprisingly strong throughout the resort - HIGHLY recommend the bioluminescence plankton excursion – one of the coolest things we’ve ever done! Mehs: - The food was just ok. It certainly was not anything special, but also not the worst I’ve ever had traveling. Definitely could use some improvement. - There is a charge for every single activity, even kayaking, paddle boarding, or snorkeling on-site Cons: - The music. Plays nonstop from ~10am - midnight every day. - The boat ride back to Cartagena. Wow, it was so rough. We were soaked and actually fearful for about 30 minutes of the 2 hour ride. Some previous reviews mention this, and our ride to the island was pretty calm, so we thought people were exaggerating. They were not. It was very scary and felt unsafe at times. This isn't totally the fault of the resort, but I feel like it should be addressed given reviews. Maybe leaving earlier? Overall, the pros beat the cons and this is a beautiful and unique stay. Not sure we will return just because of the boat transportation.

I loved how eco friendly the place really is. Great for a romantic get away. The transportation to and from the island is not great. The boat takes in a lot of water and you will be soak and wet both going and coming.

Honestly, meh
I have travelled extensively in Colombia in the last 4 months, and i have to say, this hotel had the least friendly staff (Crespa and Tyson were nice). Not that the staff is rude or anything, but it seemed like everyone is tired of their job there. Most of the little beaches in front of beach-front "rooms" had rocks or corals. Also, be aware, the property is VERY large, and depending on which "room" you're staying in, it can be quite a walk to the restaurant or the bar. We were fine, but certainly, can be an issue for some. Upon arrival, you're greeted with a welcome drink, they sit you down, and tell you different information about tours, the hours of restaurant/bar, etc., all of which could've been included in a confirmation email. Then you make a line to check in with the only one person checking you in. At this point, everyone from the boat is already here. It would have been more efficient to check in as people are still arriving from the boat, so the first people to get off the boat could be the first people to check in. The hotel offers tours like plankton and snorkeling. For plankton tour, we had to gather at 6pm, and it was a manual hand written process of copying names from one piece of paper (we signed up for a tour upon arrival) to another.. Add that to a dragged on check in, and it's easily 2 hours wasted if you arrive to the island at 12-1pm. Compared to my stays on other islands, not coming back to this one.

Rustic Island in the Colombian Caribbean.
Nice remote rustic paradise island in the Colombian Caribbean. Beach and sea are beautiful. No beach towels and no cushioned beach beds. Restricted use of water. No hot water. Service is ok but not amazing. Food is good but many out of stock options from the menu. Many options for watersports and day tours. Good place to disconnect. Transportation from Tolu is ok but be prepared to land in the beach instead of the dock so feet may get wet and beach in Tolu is not nice. Better to travel light.

El hotel es precioso , el enclave donde está situado es inmejorable, el personal super amable todos y cada uno de ellos. Destacar la amabilidad del jefe del restaurante y el personal en general y la atención en recepción. Eso sí, las habitaciones mangles dejan mucho que desear para el precio que cobran. Tienen goteras, nos cayó una lluvia encima de madrugada en la cama y varias cagadas de pájaro mientras dormíamos la siesta y el aire acondicionado por la condensación perdía agua y el suelo al lado de la cama encharcado (Mangle 2) y en el mangle 5 muchísimas cucarachas por el suelo y en la mosquitera. Decepcionante. El baño ideal y las instalaciones en general preciosas. Nos pareció caro en general el servicio de restauración y en el bar brisas son demasiado lentos para el servicio, pero muy amables y educados.
