Overall I liked the property, it is small and quiet. The room looks as presented online. I loved my balcony it was facing the ocean and private enough if I wanted to lay out in the nude. The hotel has only one restaurant and it closes at 10pm in addition all of their meals are kids portions. I actually lost one pound while staying 4 days and I am not exaggerating. The snack area is a vending machine that the front desk did not have change in exchange for pesos. For your return flight Be sure to schedule your COVID test upon arrival because they didn’t ask and if you forget you will need to get it at the airport. The hotel is not near shopping if that is your fancy. It’s a shame because I would stay again if they fixed what I consider a food and snack challenge.

The reason for the neutral ratings is because some rooms were being renovated while I was there so while trying to relax by the pool all I could hear was power tools. The resort and quality of the room I stayed in was otherwise fine, but the construction sounds were very disappointing and I didn’t know in advance that they would be happening during my stay.

The location is fantastic and so is ALL of the staff. But, the building itself needs lots of attention. We stayed in 3 different rooms because of a broken toilet, AC, sliding door to patio and plunge pool. We had a second toilet break, water leaking from the wall onto the floor and the black out shades didn't work. Those things we just lived with. I cannot say enough about how great the people are. They are the reason we still enjoyed our trip, despite all the issues.

From the start we had issues even finding the hotel and when I called to get instructions they were unable to tell me exactly how to get to the hotel. Then I called back for more help with no answer to the phone. We finally found the hotel only to walk into a hotel that seemed very dirty and unkept. There were black dots all over the ceiling which I’m assuming is mold. There were rips in the couch and rust stains all over the floor. The curtains and couches had stains on them as well. The mirrors look worn down as well as the ironing boarding. I was scared to even use the ironing board on my clothes in fear of getting stains on them. The shower had little mold dots as well. Everything just feel extremely dirty, even the sheets had spots on them with a foul smell that smelt really old. Missing tiles in the tub on the outside of patio was another issue. I don’t even want to bring up the pool that was missing tiles as well as the drains busted out on the side. I have already contacted Expedia with these issues which they already tried contacting the hotel with no answer as well. We had to do an early checkout because of these issues and we are excepting a refund on the days we didn’t stay.

The property was exactly as described...small, quiet, and the staff was very hospitable and responsive. The rooftop restaurant did a great job with the nightly menu. It would be nice if the property allowed beach access to the south, no one could explain why the stairs on that side of the property were closed off.

If you are a couple and want to have a romantic getaway this place is the place to be. Couples only, there was only 3 couple in the infinity pool at once and it was so big that each couple picked a side and one in the middle and although everyone was friendly, we all respected our couple time. Andrea in the bar on groundfloor was amazing; Andrea embodies what customer service is and it was really refreshing to be serviced by someone that "gets it" and has the skill set to execute. Shout out to Ulises on the rooftop restaurant/bar, he was awesome to with the bartending skills with his killer different flavour margaritas, but also so friendly. Both Andrea and Ulises really confirmed how the Mexican people are a good and friendly people. Other notes would be to upgrade to "Ocean view" even thou all units face the ocean, you don't want to give up you privacy on your personal terrace by being on the ground floor. Also exchange money beforehand because although the hotel offers withdrawal and exchange service, it comes with a hefty 10% commission charge! ouch! cant' wait to be back!
