Great place to go for peace and quiet, but it’s far from everything- so it depends on what you’re looking for. The staff was really wonderful— incredibly attentive,. My only criticism would be the rooms need a bit of an upgrade. The netting in the room needs to be washed more often. The food was great overall it was a wonderful experience.
After a few days in a loud, lively beach town, we were looking for a quiet place by the sea - and found paradise! We stayed in a cozy, private hut (superior double room) with an open-air bathroom - showering while looking at palm trees is just amazing! As the cabañas are openly built, there are some insects, but that never was a problem for us. The bed is covered with a moskito net and waking up in the middle of beautiful tropical nature is just all we wanted. In the morning you hear nothing but birds and the sound of the sea, in the evening the crickets sing. So relaxing! The hotel team is super friendly and nice and the food was just amazing! We didn't miss anything and spent some really recharching days at Playa Bonita! Since the hotel changed operators shortly before our stay, some processes are not yet fully established, but everyone was always trying to make everything as smooth and convenient as possible for us. We had a wonderful time and would come back anytime!
Muy bueno el hotel, el personal muy amable, la comida estuvo muy rica, lo único es que para el precio que cobran en el restaurante, las porciones son bastante pequeñas.
