We stayed in Acanto on two separate occasions during our three week honeymoon in Central America. First for two nights before heading to Belize, and then for another five nights before heading to Cuba. This place was one of the highlights of our trip, and without hesitation will stay here again when we return to Playa! From our check-in with... More

The service was very good - when we checked in the woman at the desk ensured that we had everything we needed for our stay. She helped us organize everything we wanted and made sure that we were conmfortable. Our... More

When I arrived, the owner checked me in himself. I went by myself and he was more than helpful in giving me tips on where to go and what to do. You... More

This is a great new boutique hotel - with plenty to offer. From our trip from the airport to our greetings by the staff (thank you Ralphaella) we couldn't have felt more welcome. Our room (suite) was spacious, clean and well furnished. With a full kitchen and our own grill on the rooftop we had the option to cook some... More

As their are boats in front of the closest beach area fro the hotel. Very reasonably priced. No telephone in the room and they charge extra for the internet which... More

The new Acanto is an absolutely gorgeous property. Convenient to 5th Avenue and the beach without being in the middle of all the tourist traffic. The rooms are well equipped, although the lack of a mini fridge or ice bucket in the basic room poses beverage problems. The roof has private condo areas, as well as a public area with... More

Matt(owner) runs a very nice, clean boutique inn. The hotel is in a perfect spot between happening Quinto (5th) ave and a block to the beach. We liked it because it was brand new, felt clean and staff was very helpfull despite some minor inconvienences. More
