Hotelito Azul

The hotel’s location is beachfront, which is perfect for travelers. The room is well-ventilated. The only problem is the parking logistics.

The entrance in the hotel is the most strange entrance that I ever seen. They provide a QR code that suposed to unlock the door and an acces turnistle. This doesn’t work at all.

It’s a shame that such a beautiful property with gorgeous beach is so purely run! Read other bad reviews re service, didn’t think it really could be a 1 star bad. Oh yes, it totally was! 1. To my surprise, the staff didn’t speak English. With the exception of a front desk employee. 2. We could not even order a meal! Hotel was very slow, no guests and still we had to wait on average 45 min. One night for 1.5 hours for a simple meal for 2. They encouraged to order online since there were no waiters to be found. But then no one replied to online orders either. Saw a guy from the kitchen cleaning sea weeds on the beach around lunch time, as a result, lunch order wasn’t placed. And it goes on and on. Found much better places outside the hotel to eat with very good service (ex. El Tabano 0.2 miles away). 3. Everything is overpriced which we already knew, so the expectation was to get at a minimum decent service so it is worth it. That did not happen. 4. Rude unapologetic unwelcoming staff. (Language barrier perhaps). Traveled to Mexico a number of times, to the Cancun area. Never had an issue! This was a weird place. I would not recommend it based on service.

The staff were some of the the most helpful and friendly people I have ever dealt with when traveling. This says a lot as I travel half the year. The food and drinks at the restaurants was wonderful. The one thing I will point out is that the hotel owners need to work on updating broken patio furniture and the hotel as a whole. For what they charge it really was sad to see the hotel looking worn out. Note: we had 4 villas (not really a villa more like room with deck) for 7 days and the air con did not work well in one of the villas. Power was out several times for long periods which meant no water either but we understand this can be typical in the area. The highlight besides the beauty of the area was the staff.

I was here in the off season so it was very quite but ended up having a wonderful time relaxing and enjoying the hotel amenities. The gym is great and the roof top pool was very refreshing. The entire staff was accommodating and friendly. The food was great!! Ate 50% of my meals at the hotel and really enjoyed it. if you are looking for a cozy hotel nestled in the jungle this is the place!

Nice place, right on the beach, restaurant is pretty good but You need to read all the details before booking. - the rooms don't have tvs - people aren't at the front desk 24/7 - you have to reserve the gym - you have to reserve the jacuzzis - you need to text them before parking, it isn't an open lot, they have to unlock it - you need to use a qr code to get in the hotel - they don't have bikes to borrow

This place is all aesthetic illusion and zero substance. The beachfront location and kind staff are the only things keeping it from being a complete write-off. The rooftop pools—one of the main booking draws have been stripped of their appeal. They’re now covered by a solar awning, blocking nearly all sunlight. A rooftop pool with no sun is a design failure. You also can’t order food or drinks up there, making the space feel pointless. Worse, it’s in rough shape—cracked, broken wood slats and a noticeable wobble underfoot make it feel neglected and borderline unsafe. The restroom and changing area are embarrassing. Think rundown dive bar, not boutique hotel. One door was hanging off its hinge, the other didn’t lock. Cleanliness was also an issue. The pools and hot tubs were visibly dirty, which is unacceptable at this price point. The “$100 room credit” is misleading. It only applies to alcohol and only at a restaurant that closes before dinner hours, making it nearly useless. The staff does their best—they’re the only bright spot. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were consistently disappointing. This place sells a polished fantasy online but fails to deliver in reality. Spend your money elsewhere

Overall, the place was a perfect setting and beautiful. There’s a lot of refurbishment work in the pool and lounge areas that still is going on. The only downside was that the restaurants were really really expensive so we walked to other hotels for food. We would’ve eaten there every day, had they lowered the prices a little bit
