I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were decent in terms of cleanliness and had a balcony, which was nice. However, the service was quite inconsistent, with some staff members providing terrible service. The location was superb, right on the beautiful beach, but there were some issues with the dining experience. Overall, an average stay with some highlights and drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were kept clean and had a pool/sea view, which was nice. However, there was an issue with cleanliness in the washrooms. The service varied greatly, with top-class service from receptionist Victor Manuel Rodríguez Olán but subpar service from other staff. The location, right on the beach at Guardalavaca, was a definite plus, though some dining options were limited. The facilities were generally good.

I couldn't have asked for a better location as the hotel is right on the picturesque white sand beach with stunning views. The rooms were kept very clean and had a safe in the wardrobe for added security. The service, although a bit slow for new guests, turned out to be top-class once they recognized me as a returning customer. The facilities were excellent, especially the bicycle hire and shops available on-site.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable with new furniture but in need of bathroom renovations. The air conditioners worked well, and the villas had a cozy vibe. However, the service was lackluster with slow responses from some staff, although returning guests seemed to receive quicker attention. Speaking Spanish to the receptionist seemed to help. The location was beautiful, right on the beach, but the direct view varied depending on the villa. The dining options were decent, and the regional jams were a nice touch. The facilities were sufficient but lacked some modern amenities.

The hotel offers reasonable cleanliness with rooms that lack an ocean view but come with a safe in the wardrobe. The pool/sea view is a plus. Service quality varies, with quick service for returning customers and top-class service from select staff, though some members provide not-so-great service. The location is ideal, right by the beach and a beautiful sea front, although dining options may not suit all tastes. Overall, a mixed experience rewarding guests with some excellent features but also room for improvement in certain aspects.

The hotel was perfectly located right on the beautiful Guardalavaca beach, offering stunning views. The service was exceptional, especially from Victor Manuel Rodríguez Olán, providing top-class assistance.

The hotel offers newly updated rooms with modern furniture, though bathroom renovations are still pending. While my room featured a balcony, the ocean view was not as prominent as expected.

The hotel is ideally located right on the beach at Guardalavaca, offering a convenient spot for beachgoers. The rooms, though recently updated with new furniture, lacked renovated bathrooms. The cleanliness was adequate, and the rooms were well-maintained. The service, especially with returning customers, was highlighted by conversations in Spanish with the receptionist and top-class service by Victor Manuel Rodríguez Olán. The dining experience did not include specific details but likely offers some delicious Uonuma-grown rice. The facilities met expectations for a relaxing stay.
