Pet friendly, quiet , nice, expensive food.
A very quiet hotel... Pros nice facilities, very quiet, comfortable room, bathrooms with tub (very nice), full relax, nice pool, pet friendly. Cons; very expensive food vs quality, you can't swim in the sea (very strong waves), mosquitoes, it's not a beach for children, the service is terrible, they don't speak English, wifi works only in certain parts. Recommendations; Bring your drinks (beer, water, snacks), mosquito repellent, contact travel agencies in advance for tours.

You MUST stay here! It is paradise! The moment we came down the windy dirt path off the main road and stepped foot on the property we were taken back by the quiet. There was a peace and tranquility that came over us. Greeted by a warm staff who offered us fresh drinks, my kids flopped down in one of many swinging chairs hammocks or loungers. The thatched roofs seemed to instantly absorb all the noise. And this was just the open air lobby! The pool was pristine. The grounds were impeccable. The elevated open air massage room was right from a dream. Getting a massage to the sound of the ocean is like nothing else on Earth. The breakfast buffet with fresh fruit - the pool table and table tennis and bar with fresh piña coladas and frappe limonadas (and I’m just talking kids drinks) was great. You could stay here for a week and do nothing else. Of course we didn’t do that. We sailed out of Santa Marta and visited the luxurious beaches of La Tayrona - and you should too! But this spot is definitely a must! We will be back!

It is a piece of paradise. The property is beautiful and clean. The rooms are simple but nice and comfortable. The bathroom is different and I like the open concept of the shower. Food is good, the menu is basic. It can be improved. The staff is extremely friendly and the service is excellent. They are always willing to help you. There are different activities to do and the hotel is great assisting you to coordinate. It was a great experience. I totally recommend it.

Although I informed them about my late arrival via email and they confirmed that they will hold my reservation, upon arrival I was informed that my room was given to someone else. Temporary bed I was offered was full of insects. No toilette paper in the bathroom (was I supposed to bring my own?). Good luck arriving after midnight...they close the gate to the resort and you have to walk one mile from the street to the resort. No one picks up the phone when you call them on the 2 numbers they posted at the gate. Would not recommend.

Normal, cómodo, para despejarse
El lugar es muy linda, la infraestructura como tal súper. Los cuartos cómodos, la cama normal. Hay calentador de agua. El wifi es PÉSIMO, solo sirve como en el 10% del lugar La comida es normal, para lo que es, es muy cara y no es tan variada teniendo en cuenta que es el único restaurante del lugar y que aparte cierra demasiado temprano igual que el bar y luego quedas sin nada que hacer. La piscina es súper chévere y el bar es con calidad. Si quieres solo descansar está bien pero si no, no hay nada que hacer 2 noches es SUFICIENTE.
