Great views! Staff were friendly, food was delicious. We missed lunch by 30 minutes but had bar food available. Amenities included an outdoor unheated pool, an indoor heated pool, sauna, steam room, and gym. Clean comfortable rooms. Bathroom was a little dated. Plenty of parking (other than we arrived during an event so lot was full). A solid, 4 star hotel! Would recommend if you are staying overnight in Nordeste.

In addition, the rooms are a good size (similar to US hotels), clean, and well appointed. I look forward to staying at The Lince Nordeste again in the future and will recommend this hotel to all of family and friends who are traveling to Nordeste.

The Lince Nordeste is the perfect place to stay in tranquil Nordeste. The staff are professional, friendly, helpful, kind, and able to communicate in multiple languages. The rooms are spacious, and clean. Rooms with ocean views have an amazing view of the town and ocean, which is lovely day and night. Breakfast is plentiful, fresh, and very tasty. Staff are ready and eager to prepare breakfast food and/or drinks that are not on display in the buffet. There is plenty of parking at no additional cost. The property also has an indoor and outdoor pool, and sauna. The elevator is roomy, which makes it easy to carry four people and their luggage comfortably to/from the second floor. My husband and I extended our stay from three nights to nineteen nights with ease, thanks to the competence of the staff, who felt more like family than hotel staff members by the time we left. We really love The Lince Nordeste and highly recommend it to visitors to the area.

Everything was excellent. The ocean views are wonderful and the restaurant is extremely pleasant. The only thing to be aware of is that it is located on the other side of the island from the airport, although it is an easy drive.

This is a property with nice views of the town and ocean. We enjoyed eating in the restaurant overlooking the coast. The indoor heated pool is fairly small but nice and the sauna was relaxing with a glass wall with scenic views to the ocean. The steam room smelled bad unfortunately so we didn’t use it. If you have a swim cap bring it as you cannot use the pools without on but they will sell you one for a nominal fee.

Extremely gorgeous property with hospitable staff. The restaurant at the hotel is phenomenal and we ate there almost every night of our stay. The rooms are a nice size and the beds were super comfortable. I think every room has a spectacular view of the ocean. Only issue we experienced was thermostat in room...its centrally controlled by the hotel and our room was a little on the warm side.
