Hotels in La Penita de Jaltemba

"Photos do not do it justice! This is a great home with a really fun pool. Very comfortable accommodations for many people."

"What a truly surprising hotel. The best way to describe it is 'diamond in the rough'... in the REALLY rough! This was a fantastic stay, albeit entirely too short. The attention to detail, the cleanliness, the service from staff are all without equal. I think my favorite part was the pool side, full-size beds suspended and shaded. Talk about the royal treatment. If a cabana-boy dressed in nothing but a swaddling-cloth type bikini holding a palm frond to cool with a natural breeze suddenly stepped from behind the bar (also pool side), I would not have been surprised. It's a decadent little hotel and haven in the middle of the most unassuming area, EVER. I am so glad I booked this in advance, otherwise I would not have ventured here 'blind'. If I had to make mention of an area needing improvement, it would be the tidiness of the pool water itself. They clearly have (and this may be seasonal due to recent rains) a garden slug problem. I didn't mind them being an environmental scientist; I know and understand these creatures. However, for most people... if they had to pull out more than a dozen slugs floating on the surface pool before getting in it, that might be a turn off. LOL Overall, however, the place exceeded my expectations and deserves the rating they have clearly worked diligently to secure. I highly recommend this place either for a single night, or a short stay. You will be pleasantly surprised and it's very much worth the going rates. 😊 "
