Our stay at this resort was truly exceptional. We booked the luxury beachfront suite, and it exceeded our expectations. The suite was clean, beautifully decorated, and offered effortless access to the beach just steps from our door. The staff were great, providing prompt assistance with food orders, fresh linens, and quick help when our key card had a minor issue. Their friendliness and professionalism made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic getaway, and I would absolutely return. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing, upscale beachside stay.

Loved Kontiki. I was a solo traveler and I felt safe at the resort. I loved that it was not too far from the town. The staff was very friendly, guest services was quick to answer any questions I had. Loved that housekeeping came and cleaned the room. I did not worry about anything being missing or that I wouldn’t be safe. I knocked a star off because for some reason the bathroom only would smell like it has been used after cleaning. Not sure if proper cleaning supplies needed to clean the bathroom. Overall, I would definitely stay at the resort again.

Let me just say , the resort itself is nice with a fabulous beach view . However the regular rooms and beds along with food isn’t worth it. Me and my spouse booked a room with a king bed and they put two twin size beds together . The mattresses were very uncomfortable and beds were on wheels so they kept moving out of place, showers could’ve been cleaned better..there were mold visible and no shower curtains or anything to stop water from getting on floor ao you’d have to shower with water low as possible to avoid it overflowing and getting on floor, also theres no wash cloths to bathe with. We haven’t gotten hardly any sleep our whole trip due to how uncomfortable the mattresses were. Breakfast was nice but due to eating outside, it’s overwhelming with birds everywhere trying to take your food . Lunch and dinner wasn’t really good but the burgers there were ok . The drinks were watered down, I couldn’t get a buzz after having 3 drinks. Overall the vibe was nice and scenery was very nice but beds and basic rooms is the only reason I wouldn’t stay back at this resort. The staffs were very helpful, nice and welcoming.helped with taxi service

The property is beautiful and is well kept. Unlike other reviews I have read, the staff was attentive and friendly. It does take a while for service, but that is everywhere on the island. It is a relaxed atomsphere. I found if you were kind and friendly, then you will be treated the same. Our housekeeper had our room stocked. I cannot wait for our next trip back to Kontiki.
