Upon our arrival the lobby and views to the ocean caught my breath--they are stunning! There are antiques throughout the common areas which I found to be a nice decorating touch. The hotel is situated in a jungle-like setting with trails to view birds and monkeys. Although the day we wanted to walk on the trail, it was closed due... More

“Superb service”

Reviewed June 7, 2013 via mobile

We spent the weekend to celebrate my wife's birthday. The hotel personnel was so special in preparing every detail, from the flowers in the table of the cava where they reserved for our dinner, to the globes with kind messages, candles and flowers in the room. Shirley and all the hotel staff exceeded my expectations, my wife was so pleased!!... More

There was a fishing tournament on and the hotel was full however this did not detract from the great experience I had here. I would highly recommend my clients to... More
