The hotel butts up against the ocean so there are amazing views from the patio area and straddles two beaches. The room was lovely. We had a great view of the ocean from our windows and it was clean and comfortable. The king size room was large enough to comfortably spend time in it when we were ready for a break from the sun. The staff are amazing - accommodating and friendly. They make La Playita a truly special place. Easily walkable access to nearby dining and shopping via roads or beach. Highly recommend.

This view is breathtaking but it is more on the low budget type establishment than anything else. I didn't stay there because I had acquaintances on the nearby big name hotel chain on the main road. So, I'll give it a 2.5 stars.

Nice low key hideaway right on the beach. Very casual. Great hotel dog. Near the airport so you hear the planes constantly. Clean but the property is run down. The continental breakfast is a joke but plenty of good restaurants nearby to walk to. I'd stay again but its not for everyone

The view from the back patio was amazing! The lady that met us to show check us in was nice. The room was tiny, which we expected. The decor was not pleasing, the bed was up on some blocks. The shower never got warm, much less hot. I couldnt find a plug in the bathroom for the hairdryer. A little updating and could be back to its glory. If you go in knowing this it could be ok. We were just sleeping in it not spending much time in it so it was ok.
