I absolutely loved the little bungalows at this hotel. They were private, clean, and the location was perfect. My only complaint is that it is very loud in the evenings. There is music at the bar till 10 (11 one evening) so if you’re younger and looking for a party, this place is perfect. The sunsets at the restaurant are amazing.

The room was great and the pool is alright it definitely needs an upgrade on the beach chairs and there isn’t a nice view from the pool unfortunately. Unfortunately the restaurant had just burned down 5 days prior but they made a pop up kitchen so they still have great options! The staff were really friendly as well!

Disappointing Experience at the “Coral” Casita Unfortunately, the “Coral” casita was not the right choice for a restful getaway. While the villa itself was clean and well-maintained, the noise from the nearby busy street was unbearable. The constant sound of ATVs and four-wheelers racing by throughout the night made it impossible to get any sleep. I ended up checking out after just one night because the hotel was fully booked and couldn’t offer me a quieter room. If you’re looking for peace and quiet, this villa is not it. The location near the street makes it more suitable for those who don’t mind the noise or are out exploring during the evening hours. Unfortunately, it just didn’t provide the relaxation I was hoping for.

The Bungalows were just what we were looking for and the staff were very friendly and responsive to my inquiries. Family of four travelling with 2 teenagers so it was important to find a place that was close to the beach and also local restaurants. The pool is also nice and was not crowded at all.
