    Noise from the road, the toilet door creaks and disturbs the sleep of others in the room at night.

    A hotel with many reviews, as it was my repeat visit. Tasty breakfast, nice accommodation with respect for nature. Cleanliness and accommodation that has secure parking.

    However, our room was quite dark, the window faced the corridor so you can’t really open it; and noise isolation could be better—I was woken up early by some staff chatter. Adding more comfortable seating by the pool would also enhance the experience. Overall, a good stay with a few minor drawbacks.

    The hotel offers great value for money, with a fantastic location close to the city and a lovely pool. Breakfast was good and staff were nice.

    There's delicious breakfast every morning. We were also able to rent quads and scooters from the hotel which was really nice. The room was clean and staff were nice! The pool was really nice too. The front-desk staff was also very friendly, they called taxis for us. There's also a cold water dispenser outside on every floor which we really appreciate.

    The support cleaning staff needs a little more training in how to communicate. Even using the translation app they seemed reluctant to respond to needs.

    Very nice natural grounds. Excellent pool. Room was nice. The main staff was very helpful.

    The owner did not greet us it all when arriving. Did not ask if we were doing well during the holiday. No goodmorning, nothing. When we left he also did not say a single word. The daughter was nice and helpful though, but I think when you are the owner you should be more friendly and welcoming to the guests. Therefore I would not go back there again, although it was a nice place. Just did not feel very welcome.

    Very nice accommodation. It has a jungle vibe and I liked the small nature details in the room. Also the breakfast they make is really nice

    There is not enough table in the room and a mini fridge

    the hotel is not located on the main street, so it is quieter. but it's a long walk to the beach, by car is 5 mins. If the room faces the mountain, it is quite quiet; if it faces the road, the sounds of cars may disturb you. very friendly staff, delicious breakfast.

    It is besides the road (so a bit further away from the beach), so you hear this noise all night.

    The staff is friendly and everything looks cute and nice. Really enjoyed our stay, the price is very reasonable

    Only downside was it was a good 20-30 mins walk to restaurants, so ended up driving to eat out

    Lovely family-run boutique hotel, spotlessly clean, nice pool & gardens, serving the most wonderful breakfast! Melanie was very helpful in providing advice and helping us organise an excursion.

    The hotel is quite far from the "city center", i.e. you should use taxi/motoconcho or your car to have the dinner/shop etc., which increases the price of acommodation. We have got the room behind the breakfast place, so we felt a little bit pushed away, seemed as it was the room for staff. The beach is approx 20 min by walk from the hotel. At the time of our visit, the payment terminal was out of order and as we rather did not have much of cash, the online payment and exchange rate cost extra money as well. The price of breakfast is without tax as the price of acommodation.

    The hotel is very nice, clean and maintained (even the swimming pool), with armed security as it is far from the "city center", the staff is very nice, English speaking reception. The breakfast was very tasty, continental type, with the specialty coffee. It is situated to the main road, but it is quiet place anyway - e.g.nice terrace for morning/night yoga. The hotel provides complimentary potable water by the swimming pool. Payment in USD or pesos.
