Very Good

Great stay if you’re budget conscious. Pool area is beautiful and staff was friendly. Excellent location short walking distance to shops and restaurants. Our apartment could have been cleaner and better equipped but it was fine for a few days.
Highly recommend this property!
Quiet, clean, and friendly all in a convenient location.
The room was a good size and the kitchenette was sufficiently equipped.
Good location and close to everything. The pool is nice and very clean. The breakfast is amazing and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely stay again.
We arrived approximately one hour prior to the scheduled check in time. The staff at the front desk were courteous and spoke to us in English as our Spanish is far from good. The staff let us know that our room was ready and then walked us to our room and opened the door for us. The pool was amazingly warm and clean. The breakfast was excellent and the staff serving were very nice and prompt. The rooms were well taken care of. We were even treated to visits from Iguanas and Macaws. My wife and I would stay in this location again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Rooms were quiet but made of stone which blocks the wifi signal. All guests have to be present on arrival which was not disclosed before booking a non refundable reservation. Lots of children in the pool and jacuzzi so I never could use it.
Nice property , very quiet family oriented, great breakfast made to order! Staff were super helpful and nice!
The owner was very friendly and I enjoyed chatting with him , lovely person.
I would recommend this property especially for families with small children and teenagers , lots to do like game areas and pools ! Lovely fauna ✌🇨🇦
