Best hotel in the area! Beautiful ambience in the evenings with the wooden lamps and the ocean, it gets packed! Really good food - not cheap, though! So, ojo! Try the licuados (jugos naturales) - they're excellent. Breakfast is generous and diverse but wasn't really that tasty IMO. If you are aware that it is a simpler life down at the Caribbean Coast, you can have a wonderful time at that hotel. Staff and receptionists are very responsive to your requests. But don't look to closely into the corners of your room (not super clean).
