Nice little hotel in an amazing location

The hotel is ok, but what we really loved is that it is in a remote area where you find peace and a beautiful beach and you get to Walk long stretches peacefully. It has a beautiful deck looking the sea where you could sit for hours, as we did.

Nice Staff..Rooms....

Well I will start off by saying the pictures I saw online I did not see in my room. The room was ok is all I can say. Definitely not the worse I have seen but not like pic shown. The hotel staff made up where the room failed exceptions. They were all so sweet and accommodating. The food and drinks were good.

Muy lejos y la carretera de terracería, la gente se mete en ropa interior a la piscina, el servicio en restaurantes es lento, aceptan a gente armada y sin educación ya que habían mujeres semi desnudas tomándose fotos en la piscina y los dueños no hacen NADA!! El único mesero amable Jose después los demás NO es su palabra favorita. Camas muy duras y baño demasiado pequeño e incomodo. Hay mas hoteles en Hawaii y Monterrico este NO lo recomiendo. Bulla en la piscina de noche y están frente a los cuartos. El dueño atiende a los vulgares, turistas extranjeros, armados y no al local que somos la mayoría !! Busquen Dos Mundos, La Mar, Le Blanc que si vale la pena y cuestan lo mismo.

Es un lugar muy bonito y muy familiar, el servicio es muy bueno y la comida ha mejorado mucho desde mi última visita. Mi único inconveniente son las camas que a mi gusto no fueron muy cómodas, siempre son un poco duras. Por lo demás es definitivo que regresamos proximamente.
