This property was absolutely gorgeous and perfectly placed. Easy 15-20 min walk to the downtown area. We enjoyed relaxing at the hotel, the beach was gorgeous and warm, the pool temp was perfectly maintained, the rooms were great!

An Amazing Stay from Start to Finish! Abaton was absolutely amazing. The resort has beautiful views, great common areas, and everything you need for a perfect stay. The rooms are spacious, modern, and spotless, with a huge balcony and an incredible view. The room layout isn't the best, but everything else more than made up for it. The dining was a highlight. Buddha-Bar Beach has a great selection of delicious food and drinks — the sushi is spectacular. Bony Fish restaurant was also very good, and the breakfast buffet has an incredible selection to start the day. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We had an amazing time and would absolutely return. Highly recommend!

Fabulous and gorgeous property. We stayed in May, and the views were outstanding and the food and service were excellent. You can see the sunset and sunrise from the exact same spot on the view deck. That is big the view is. It is a 30+ minutes from the airport. Free valet and free self parking. The nearby town has nightlife and lots of good restaurants. There is no public hot pool or tub, but some of the rooms have one.
