We stayed for 7 nights and had a wonderful time! The property was right in the middle of all the best restaurants in town - Lestanco (The Hidden Garden), Dragonfly, Rugierio for coffee and bagels, the Night Market and all of the beach restaurants to watch the sunset. The owner was there every day. The staff was excellent. Definitely saw monkeys in the trees above us. It was a definite oasis in the middle of town! We loved it!

Hotel Pasatiempo is right in town and walking distance to many restaurants, live music and the beach and at the same time it feels like a lush oasis. Lots of beautiful palm trees and plenty of wildlife like iguanas and monkey visits in the mornings. Very quiet considering how close you are to everything.

Room cleanliness was very good, housekeeping efficient and always new towels. Breakfast was under par, very disappointing. We felt restaurant staff could’ve been more helpful and friendly, it would’ve boosted their sales. Pool often had lots of falling leaves, but was awesome. Enjoyed the location of this place, very convenient. Reception staff very helpful, accommodating and friendly. Overall a great place

i absolutely love this accommodation. Felt like we were at a resort. The room was small, but we did not need anything larger as we didn’t spend much time here. Walked out of our room into the pool area. We enjoyed having a restaurant and bar on site. It was within walking distance to everything. Night market just down the street. We even saw monkeys passed through a few times during our stay.

This is a boutique hotel with quaint clean rooms. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food at the restaurant is more expensive than other restaurants in town so didn’t eat there but in the morning they had delicious free coffee for guests.
