Beautiful property and location in Las Catalina’s, surf shop, beach and restaurants out your doorstep. Rooftop pool and nearby beach club also amazing.

We loved the community and found many options. Only thing I would say is staff was not to willing to provide food options that were outside of the hotel.

This place sits in such a unique natural environment. The surroundings incl access to the sea, beaches and walking trails makes it a perfect spot.

Terrible experience. I stayed here with my son for about a week. Although it's next to the beach, the area is surrounded by construction, with almost no shops and poor transportation options. Staff were unprofessional and unhelpful—no activity brochures, no useful advice, and they only cared about charging you. The taxi from the hotel to the airport was quoted at $180, while Uber would cost around $70, but they chased away my Uber driver! One of the worst hotel stays I've ever had. Avoid this place and stay closer to Flagmin Beach instead.

It’s a lovely building but needs a refresh. The pool is tiny and is typically congested. The food is good with plenty of options. However most all items at the breakfast buffet were somehow deep fried. The beach access needs a place to rinse off - the black sand from the beach is annoying.

Wonderful property and Las Catalinas is amazing. Would love to see more chairs on the shared balconies, and fans in the bathrooms. But those are nit picky, and the rest is excellent.

I really loved the property and staff. Everyone was great and very accommodating, especially the front desk guys. I have to say that dining was expensive and the hotel doesn’t provide the basics like bottled water, robes/slippers, vanity kits etc. The hotel also didn’t provide loungers by the beach. I paid $25 for a chair for the beach for a few hours. The hotel needs to provide more for the price they charge. I wouldn’t say this is a 4 star as far as the amenities available but the service is 5 star.

The beach and the surrounding area are absolutely beautiful but the town is so small and has nothing for you to explore. We ate breakfast at the hotel and it was fine. It was a buffet but I feel like for the price you pay to stay there, the breakfast buffet should at least be included. They have a nice, short beach that was lovely to hang out on or go paddle boarding/kayaking and a hiking trail next to the property with a couple of options for hiking (I liked this). Because this place is tiny and your dining options are limited, everything is really expensive. I would only stay here for 1-2 nights.
