Great location, beautiful grounds. Staff was excellent. Lived the included breakfast, and the restaurant was great for a quick lunch or relaxing dinner. Magnificent sunsets. Very nice pool and swimable ocean. Howler monkeys made an appearance on property and put on quite a show. Really nice stay. Would recommend without any hesitation.

We had an excellent stay at Capitan Suizo! The staff was great, location right on the beach excellent and just a short walk into town. The pool was not crowded, we were always able to find a chair.

We had a beautiful 3 days at Capitán Suizo! It was clean, comfortable, and the food was delicious! But the most amazing part was definitely the staff - they were attentive, welcoming, and truly went above and beyond. The hotel is super peaceful but an easy walk to all the restaurants, stores and nightlife if that’s what you want. Thank you all for a great stay!
