Beachfront hotel with yoga in the am

Right on the beach, free yoga once a week, breakfast is included (and delicious) and the hotel is generally quiet (though one night these awful French tourists were drunk and making a racket and security never came to shut them up, which was surprising and a little disappointing). But overall the stay was great!

Gorgeous grounds, wonderful staff, safe location, quiet and removed from downtown noise. Rooms had a tropical rustic vibe. The hotel was exactly what I was looking for and it was great! Peaceful yoga outside for my family in the garden facing the sea, will be one of my favorite memories. Instructor was great and super nice. My children all got massages, also wonderful. The breakfast is amazing, and the dinners were fabulous, great food and beautiful presentation. The music they played in dining room was awesome. All staff were excellent, I can’t remember all names but Rosio and Lucia were so sweet. The private fenced beach was wonderful! Truly an escape, felt relaxed and refreshed. Highly recommend!!

The private property was just like the pictures online. They didn't exaggerate on the beauty it really is. I stayed in a junior suite that was very well maintained. It had a very comfortable, sturdy hammock outside right in front of the beach. The fact that it has a private beach and other things, such as surfing, yoga, spa, all offered by the hotel was awesome. It has it's own restaurants and beach bar. Evening I arrived in the evening, the staff was very attentive and ensured I had everything I needed. The parking is big and private as well. The best thing I loved is that even after check out, you are allowed to go back into the hotel and continue to use their amenities. I will definitely be coming back.
