Family vacation in play Encuentro

The staff was great. Hotel is quiet and comfortable, located at the top of the hill at playa Encuentro. Nothing really in the area so load up on food when you get there otherwise it is a car ride to go eat. It’s a short trip to Sousa bay if you want to just lounge on the beach. Babette is a great host and will help you with anything you need. If you are bringing the family the only thing for kids in walking distance is to surf. Tons of family activities are a car ride away.

Gemütliche Unterkunft zum Relaxen in guter Lage

Ich hatte 10 Tage bei Hooked gebucht und wäre gerne noch viel länger geblieben! Das Apartement mit Terrasse war wunderschön und gemütlich. Ich habe mich total wohl gefühlt. Die Rundum-Betreuung von Babette war super. Ich konnte ihr jederzeit eine kurze Nachricht schreiben und sie hat sofort reagiert. Generell kann ich nur sagen, dass die Besitzer und das gesamte Team super nett, freundlich und zuvorkommend sind. Der Strand zum Surfen (Playa Encuentro) ist nur 5 Gehminuten entfernt. Kite Beach kann in 10 Fahrminuten erreicht werden. Die Lage ist super - vor allem wenn man gerne morgens zum Surfen und nachmittags zum Kiten gehen möchte.
