Cody, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Part of the hotel it seems that they don’t work on it so it looks like is going down, like the area of the pool, the cenote that it’s inside the hotel. Room had a lot of humidity and it smell bad the first day we got there, and by the 3rd day the smell got worst. In the other hand rooms are confortable, the jacuzzi on our balcony was good, the ambient was nice, workers were very friendly and helpful.
Sara, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms are super cute! Was a little disappointed by the size of the outside “jacuzzi” that didn’t even get hot. The room service was alright but the vibes of the overall hotel were good.
Michelle, 3-night trip

Cruz, 1-night trip

La estancia fue buena, creo que es importante mencionar que la calle para ingresar con auto la calle no está pavimentada y tiene importantes inundaciones, el estacionamiento no tiene vigilancia y está lleno de excremento de perro, la habitación está muy bien y cuenta con buen internet

Excellent price. Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful property. Pet friendly. The only disappointment was the long distance from the beach and tourist area. You need a car or taxi
