This place is very well located. It is very clean and has a very comfortable beds. However, the common areas feel more like someone’s house than a guesthouse or hotel. Also, there are no outdoor grounds, or a balcony.

Overall a decent property. Wifi only available in the one restaurant or the lobby, Tons of stairs. Most staff not very proficient with English. We had the breakfast included and that was very good food. However the restaurant doesnt open til 8:30 and no coffee is available anywhere prior to that time.

Great hotel with clean rooms. The only problem is a lot of stairs but is good to keep your good health while eating a lot of good seafood :). One more recommendation might be to have roofs for the cars and more parking space, there are very few places where to park the cars, also is not soo cool to leave the car on the street at the direct sunlight and heat.

Hotel para descansar

El hotel es muy lindo, y sus habitaciones confortables con una vita increíble a la bahía, el estacionamiento es para pocos autos, tiene utensilios para cocinar, y es buena idea legar con víveres ya que es una zona de puros hoteles, por lo que debes de salir si deseas ir a algún restaurante. Se encuentra a unos 30 minutos del centro de Manzanillo, pero la zona es muy segura y tranquila.

Mucho que mejorar en las habitaciones

La vista es increible, la pasamos muy bien en familia. Además parece postal con tantas flores y camelias qué hay por los caminos, sin embargo la habitación deja mucho que desear. Los colchones muy duros y la regadera no salía más que un hilo de agua. Lo reportamos a recepción pero no lo solucionaron en nuestra estancia por lo que era muy complicado bañarse. Tiene muchas escaleras y pendientes. No es apto para personas con dificultades para caminar o personas de la Tercera edad
