Excellent service, attentive staff, very clear English communication, very organized. The food at the restaurant was excellent - fresh, organic and tasted great. We had 5 or 6 meals there and everything was great! Highly recommend! Given how remote and small the island is (population less than 200), it’s remarkable that this facility offers such high quality. Air conditioning is top notch and our room was very comfortable.

The staff were awesome. I was amazed by the seemingly long days worked by the manager who remained so warm and courteous. The food was good with many drink options. An old building that was tasteful and located right next to a serene beach of powder sand and clear blue waters. Many beach chairs and umbrellas to lounge under. A nice tall ceiling in the suite with cool air conditioning and a fan. The staff seamlessly book golf carts for guests which was a fun way to cruise around the island. The surrounding area feels safe and welcoming, everyone was so kind to my friend and I. Isla Contadora is a gem and I'm happy with my choice to stay at Mar Y Oro.

Food was great . Limited but very good . Service was terrific . The staff is friendly and full of smiles! Don’t go to the beach on weekends! The 4x4 trucks constantly driving by , making a day at the beach quite unpleasant. The hotel itself is in desperate need of a facelift! Rooms need to be painted, holes in the wall patched , and a good scrub to the black mold on the beams in the bathroom. The whole place really needs to be updated ! Overall, we enjoyed our stay even if overpriced.

Mar Y Oro exceeded our expectations. The location was exceptional -the beach was pristine-with good snorkeling right there.at low tide it was best. The beach is huge, your stay includes beach lounge chairs and and umbrellas. The room (queen room with patio view) was bigger than expected with a smart TV. The walls in the bathroom (and some outside walls) were covered with shells-(plastic I assume) which very unique. A few were missing here and there, but no big deal. The breakfast was delicious and the dinners here and the so were the dinners-especially the seafood pasta which had as much seafood as it did pasta. The staff were helpful and helped us arrange a boat ride. A pick up and drop off to and from the ferry is included also. iWe would definitely stay there again should we return and highly recommend Mar Y Oro!

Great place. Loved the view from my room. Food was great but too pricey. Understandably though. Staff was very friendly. The only thing is that they should pick up the trash from the beach. Wished I stayed longer though

The property is simple and nice. You can't beat the location! Being right on the beach was fabulous. There were plenty of beach chairs, towels, and umbrellas available and staff were eager and happy to set them up for us. Breakfast was included (fruit, eggs/omelet, juice, coffee) at the restaurant onsite. We did lunch one day at the beach bar and dinner one night in the restaurant. The food was average/good and seemed to be typical prices for an island. The staff were friendly and helpful.
