"Qema Máncora makes a strong first impression with its accommodations. The property offers a variety of room styles to suit different travelers; I can speak specifically to the suite, which was outstanding—generous in size, filled with natural light, and designed with a clear emphasis on comfort and ease. The bathroom, often an overlooked detail in beachside properties, was equally impressive: spacious, well-appointed, and more than comfortable for two.
Beyond the room, the property itself truly excels. Every meal was exceptional, with food that consistently impressed and cocktails that were as thoughtful as they were well-executed. Happy hour never felt like an afterthought, but rather a daily highlight. Service throughout the property was excellent, with special recognition owed to John, whose attentiveness, warmth, and deep local knowledge elevated the entire stay. His recommendations around the town of Máncora—from dining spots to nightlife—were spot-on and added a meaningful layer of authenticity to the experience. Brian also deserves mention for his consistently great service at both meals and poolside.
The pool area embodies the relaxed sophistication Qema aims for: ample shaded loungers, a laid-back atmosphere, and perfectly curated chill-vibe music that sets the tone for effortless afternoons by the water.
One important consideration for travelers is that nightlife is very much part of the Qema experience. Music carries clearly into the evening, often well past 10:"
