My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were cozy but very quiet and comfortable, providing a peaceful environment, yet they felt somewhat confined like a POW camp. The service was friendly, although there was an issue they couldn't assist with. The location was lovely with lush foliage but got very hot due to its all-metal structure, though it was convenient in terms of proximity to the main area. The dining was basic but tasty. The facilities were decent. Overall, it was a somewhat comfortable stay with some drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent, right across the road from the beach with lush tropical surroundings, but the room felt more like a prisoner of war camp than a hotel room, and it was a bit overpriced for what we got.

Staying at this hotel was an interesting experience. The rooms felt more like a pow camp than a hotel room, situated behind the building on their separate block. Despite being able to find rooms for a similar price or cheaper in the same area, the presence of cockroaches and the strong smell of insecticide inside the room made it less appealing. Although the exterior looked nice, the pool's bottom felt a bit slimy. Overall, not the best value for money.

The location is not far from the main drag and right across the road from the beach. The lush foliage and tropical plants added to the charm. It was safe to place valuables with Rafael or Moises, who were helpful.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great, near the beach and in a lush tropical setting. The rooms, however, left much to be desired with pests like cockroaches and a strong insecticide smell. The pool was a bit disappointing, feeling slimy, and not providing good value for the money. It felt more like a camp than a comfortable hotel room.

The hotel is in a lush tropical rainforest setting, close to the main area but not so close to the beach. Safety is a concern due to falling coconuts.

The hotel is situated not far from the main attractions and close to the beach. The rooms, while cozy and comfortable, may feel a bit cramped for the price paid. The service was decent, with friendly staff but with some limitations in assistance. The location offers lush tropical surroundings, yet the metal structures can make it unbearably hot during the day. Dining options are basic but tasty. The facilities are satisfactory overall with some room for improvement in value for money.
