    Entire stay was fantastic! Gorgeous hotel and property! Literally a hidden gem you can't see from the road because of all the palm trees and banana trees and foliage. Fantastic details everywhere! I was a little hesitant about not having an ocean view until we arrived and saw how spectacular this place was and we were happy to walk across the street to the beach. Small and fabulous, so much better than a cookie cutter large hotel. They had one restaurant on the property and it was perfect for all meals and drinks and plenty to choose from. We had room service for breakfast every day; perfect! Lunch usually at the cafe, or beach or pool; always unique and extremely fresh! Dinner was great! Small intimate hotel was lovely, relaxing and quiet.

    Evidently, we experienced a lot more mosquitoes because of downpours prior to our stay. The pool areas seemed a little “buggy” because of abundant foliage and standing water. Not sure there is a solution for that, but did get a lot of bites.

    The resort is super friendly. That spills over to the interactions of guests, who all become friends after a week.

    The only aspect that I did not like was leaving!

    The immaculate cleanliness impressed me. I greatly appreciated the exceptional service (i.e. bringing food to the room from the Coco Cafe, calling for taxis) unique amenities (i.e. snorkels, cooler, charcoal barbeque grill, well stocked kitchen) and overall feel of paradise.

    The beach area it's on isn't the best (Palm area next to the Ritz), especially if you've stayed in Eagle beach before. It is also pricey compared to other similar hotels given it's not on the beach and doesn't include breakfast. The view of the Palapa 360 is just an empty arid lot.

    Hotel design was amazing, soo lush - staff was incredible too (they even left a bottle of white wine for my birthday). Paid a little more to stay at the Palapa 360 and it was beautifully decorated but I think the regular casitas seemed better overall. I'm not much of a pool person but their pool area was gorgeous -They have happy hour 3-5 and the mojitos were really good. The beach is a 5 min walk crossing the road or they take you in a little cart

    The pictures do not do this boutique hotel justice. It is so well designed and the colors of the casitas, the coconut trees, and lush plants made it feel truly magical. We stayed in a Coco Casita and it felt so spacious. We ended up on the second floor of the casita instead of the first floor, and had amazingly high, beautiful ceilings with a ceiling fan and air conditioning. The little lizards that popped up on the path were quite intriguing.. they had amazing colors. It felt nice to be connected to nature right there next to the beaches and other resorts. We had an amazing time hanging by the pool as well. It was very calm and the other travelers that were drawn to this same place were relaxed and quiet. The Coco Cafe has great menu items and the dishes felt very well thought out and they were very delicious. The happy hour from 3-5 was a delightful part of the day. Many other guests would use the pool at this time and it felt so lively and refreshing.

    I can't think of a thing that they could have done better!

    Staying at Boardwalk Boutique Hotel was an extraordinary experience! Every single member of their staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome and like a part of their own family during our stay. They helped with recommending, planning, and booking our activities and local transportation, and they provided truly personal service to make us feel comfortable and cared for during our stay. Their property is gorgeous and meticulously maintained, nestled in a cozy natural setting that provides a truly unique experience and setting that is unparalleled at the other resorts on the island.

    The bed was a little firmer than we like and made lots of noises when you turn.

    Literally the best place we’ve ever stayed! We were only planning to stay for 3 nights, but ended up staying for an extra night because we loved it so much. It’s such a unique hotel - you walk through a beautiful lush garden to get to your private casita. There’s a restaurant on site (Coco Cafe) and the hotel is within walking distance to tons of bars/restaurants since it’s near all the big resorts, but way more quiet and relaxed. They have two beautiful pools. It’s only a few minute walk to the beach (or they have a shuttle). You can reserve chairs and a “palapa” umbrella on the beach for free. The shuttle driver has free water and also sells pop/beer on the beach, or you can order food/drinks from the Ritz Carlton (which we only did once because it’s pricey). Pool/beach towels are available at the front desk and can be exchanged for fresh ones every day. All of the staff is super friendly. We’ll be recommending this place to all our family and friends!
