We loved this hotel. The staff was efficient and the room was clean. It is ideally situated in front of the beach. Two suggestions to improve this hotel 1) Add a fourth restaurant to diversify the food offering. 2) Add more shaded areas around the pool. We will recommend this hotel to our friends.

We loved the vibe of this hotel, it’s a really nice location in Playa Flamingo where you can catch the perfect sunset. The staff is really kind and the rooms and facilities are nice. It’s also nice that you can walk to the beach, just in front of the hotel, and walk to restaurants.

The resort was lovely! Staff couldn’t have been nicer. While technically across the street from the beach it’s really right there and super convenient. It’s a beautiful beach that wasn’t too crowded.
We were glad we didn’t do all inclusive because the food was just ok and there were other great places within walking distance. Everything else was spectacular and we were glad we chose it!
