The property and location was superb. The hotel was within walking distance to the beach and funk zone. The only complaint I would have is the room for the 2 beds are full beds only. So if you are a family it is a very tight squeeze for two adults to sleep in one bed.

Stayed for Thanksgiving get-a-way. We had a fantastic and relaxing experience. Rodolfo was extremely hospitable upon arrival and even let us check in an hour early. The rest of the team was exceptional as well. Mom loved the beautiful property and the rooms were clean. Highly Recommended!

Beautiful hotel in a great location. We had a good sized room, everything was immaculate and up to date, and the breakfast (included) was just fine -- croissants, yogurt, fruit etc. Friendly staff. Can't wait to go back.
