La Bahia Hotel and Spa

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Kind staff, peaceful yet stylish decor, thoughtful touches, sunrise yoga option, excellent location, delicious breakfast, comfortable mattress, spacious bathroom. I look forward to staying at the Bahia again and for a longer duration and while enjoying spa services. I’m not sure I grasp the limited pool and hot tub access for hotel guests but it’s something to better understand for a future visit."
