We were suppossed to stay in october 2017 but had to reschedule for april 2018 even though there was a delay in our visit, we could not have had a better time. The resort looks just like the pictures. The staff was so pleasant and helpful. We did not want to leave and plan on returning.

On the Beach
Pros:Right on the beach. The room was large and very comfortable. The pool is very nice as is the upstairs bar which is opened to the outdoors.
Cons:The male staff in particular can use customer service training. Just apologize and remedy the matter rather than argue it's partly your fault.
Location:Lost of water sports and activities; sunset cruises, kayaking etc.
Many local eateries with very good local food.
The hotel has a perfect location. You are right on the beach.
There are kayaks for rent and they equip the beach front with chaise lounge chairs. The stay comes with breakfast which has a good variety of options. I would not recommend eating at the hotel restaurant as just down the street are very nice local eateries with much better ceviche and other offerings.
The staff, while polite, seemed to be ready to blame us for failings in service.
Upon registration, they did not ask us for a credit card for additional charges. When we went to the restaurant, they stated that we did not have a credit card on file for charging the dinner. When we noted that they had not asked us upon registration, they responded that it was out responsibility to have thought of it. When we ordered a salad that was advertised as having goat cheese, we were served a salad that had shredded mozzarella. We asked the wait staff about the cheese as it was clearly not goat cheese. She came back and said the chef stated that they had run out of goat cheese and served feta instead; it was not feta. We stated that if they no longer had goat cheese they should have notified us so that we could make an informed decision. This point was also argued rather than apologizing and taking a simple recommendation that would have made a better experience for the customer. Several other incidents like this took place.
The staff is not rude; could use customer service training.

Dated hotel
Pros:see above
Cons:Remodeling the rooms
Location:right on the beach which is nice, but nothing else close by to do.
Stayed 3 days. Breakfast buffet was always very good. Hotel restaurant ordering takes too long. Right on the beach. Good security at the hotel. Rooms have safes. There is not much in the area, so you are pretty confined to the hotel unless you are willing to drive 1 1/2 hours. Pool bar is nice.
Hotel seems pretty old so take that into consideration.
