Alojamiento con potencial pero sin ninguna gestión

El sitio es bonito , el personal es amable y las cabañas nuevas están bien , pero es un lugar rodeado de un hotel abandonado y una casa en construcción . No hay ningún tipo de gestión: el sitio se lleva por varios voluntarios , el chico para todo Luis, las dos chicas de cocina y la ayudante que se encarga de la limpieza . Todos ellos lo hacen bien y son amables pero un alojamiento no se gestiona solo , hace falta una dirección de la tripulación . Este es el principal problema que he encontrado y que venden algo que no es. Por ejemplo las fotos de los chalets siempre sacan el que tiene vistas despejadas a la playa pero los otros dos tienen delante una casa de un ¿vecino?. Se “vende” como un restaurante y bar pero la realidad es que es hay que encargar las comidas con antelación , comer y cenar a la hora que se marca y en compañía del resto de huéspedes , que puede gustarte o no, pero esto se debería explicar bien con antelación . Estaría OK para un hostel , pere en general pese a que los costes de las islas son caros y soy consciente , me ha parecido un sitio caro para lo que ofrecen porque cuando pagas lo que cuestan estas habitaciones esperas no solo un lugar sino también una atención , una gestión , y un cierto nivel de servicio

Uma experiência fantástica! Atendimento de todos foi maravilhoso. Ficamos no chalé na beira do mar, agua cristalina e quente. Não é um hotel de luxo, é rustico, com limitacões de agua doce e energia por conta de ser uma ilha sem esses recursos, acredito que até os hoteis de luxo da ilha tenham as mesmas limitações. Mas não fez falta, até porque ficamos no mar todo tempo, as refeições são feitas no hotel, não tem opções próximas, ja sabiamos disso e não foi problema. Eles dão opções de passeios pagos a parte e também são ótimos. O deslocamento para ilha é facil, tranquila, dura 2h, você aprecia a paisagem o tempo todo. Recomendo!

El Embrujo Tintipán offers a peaceful and authentic island experience. The staff are welcoming and attentive, making you feel right at home. The rooms are simple, clean and comfortable, with the charm of being surrounded by nature. Meals are fresh and delicious, especially the seafood dishes, which highlight local flavors. The location is unbeatable: right on the water with clear blue views and easy access to swimming and snorkeling. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a quiet retreat away from crowds. Highly recommended if you want to disconnect and enjoy the beauty of Tintipán.
