Great location

Pros: Big spacious bedroom with a very large king size bed and a large extra double bed. Air con, fridge, coffee facilities. Nice pool, small, but good. Property is on the beach with restaurants 5 min away.

Cons: No food options. Not a big problem with restaurants so close, but always nice to have breakfast at the hotel. Next to the main road and VERY noisy.

I’d go back !!

Pros: Very clean. Room was spacious. On the beach. Pool was clean. Nearby several restaurants.

Cons: It is right on the highway. Truck drivers use their compression brakes right near the hotel. It was quiet between 1:30 am and 4:30 am though

Mooie locatie, fijn verblijf

Pros: Mooie locatie aan Playa Hermosa! Vlakbij het hotel zaten heel veel ara's in de bomen, die komen ook overvliegen, geweldig om te zien. Idyllisch plekje, niet te toeristisch. De zee heeft een sterke stroming maar is wel prachtig. Mooie grote kamers, lekker zwembadje. Er is geen restaurant aanwezig maar we kregen goede tips voor een leuk restaurantje direct naast de deur, met heerlijk ontbijt. Wij verbleven hier als stop vanuit het zuiden, onderweg terug naar de luchthaven, daarvoor een uitstekende plek! Medewerkers waren erg vriendelijk, meedenkend en flexibel.

pefect little boutique hotel on the beach, nice quiet spot

Pros: great little boutique hotel, we had the back room facing the beach which must be the best room as we can see the sea from the patio, and walk to the pool and beach easily. the room is plenty big enough for 4, and the patio is large you can walk to a mini market, and some bars restraunts,, its less commerical as jaco , but easy to get to jaco to surf.

Cons: nothing i didnt like
