"First, you will have to pay the property in cash or by transfer. No credit card. Even if we got there around 4 pm, the owner sent us a message around 9pm at night that we need to pay the total amount in cash or by money transfer. Toilet doesn’t flush properly and the shower will be cold or burning hot. Also, no water pressure. We’ve contacted the owner multiple time and she kept telling us there is a way to get a warm shower but it never worked at the end so we gave up asking. We also had to...

Cristalino Lagoon Front Hotel Restaurant & SPA - Adults Only

Cristalino Lagoon Front Hotel Restaurant & SPA - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed staying in this beautiful place. The staff was amazing and accommodating. Despite of the amazing experience, there are two things that I hope Cristalino can have in mind to further improve it's guests experiences. I was able to hear the movement of furniture, screeching on the floor, people laughing, and moving things from a room next door. I am not sure what they can do other than asking the neighbors to quiet it down but Im wondering if maybe they can improve how the sound travels between the rooms as my downstairs neighbors also struggled with the noise. My sleep was interrupted by that but the staff was able to to minimize the noise by telling their guests to quiet down. Another thing that was unpleasant is how they communicated that they would charge me the pillow cases that my hair dye damaged. Although they were understanding and made an exception in not charging me, sending me a picture of it came through as passive aggressive and that did dampen my mood."
