Great couples retreat

Perfect location in the Romantic zone/old town with an ocean view and located on the beach. Walking distance to all the sites for first time visitors. Tons of nearby restaurants. Family friendly, but also separate pool for adults only. Friendly locals, happy to let us practice our Spanish. Plenty of chairs by the pool and beach. Pool side bar with 2 happy hours. Loved it.

This was a very nice Beach Resort! We had the all inclusive package - the food and drinks were great. It was in an amazing location in the Zona Romantica, in a very lively and walkable area. The hotel staff are friendly. Would highly recommend! We really enjoyed our stay.

This is my second time staying at Los Arcos. I love the area and how everything is walking distance. Hotel itself could probably use a remodel, but I don’t mind it at all! I’ll stay here again next year!

The hotel is very very pretty, clean, the pool is beautiful, rooms are perfect size. Parking is the worst I have ever experienced. You pretty much have to find parking out in the street yourself, HUGE inconvenience. Internet is also horrible, nonexistent. I was told it’s because too many people are on at the same time. You would think a hotel that size would have an internet carrier with the capacity to accommodate such a huge audience, but no. Price and location is very ideal but not staying there again. I would recommend if you don’t have a vehicle to park and don’t care to be without internet service while there.
