Este hotel está muy bonito, limpio el servicio y su comida son excelentes, lo único que no me hizo feliz fue que la piscina estaba muy fría, y no encendieron el heater, la piscina de los niños si tenía una temperatura agradable pero la de los adultos demasiado fría, pero por lo demás todo perfecto.

The hotel has beautiful views of the ocean, lobby is really esthetic. The pool had several glasses that were cracked. The spa was 3/5 stars. We did a couples massage but it wasnt romantic and the massage felted like rubbing instead of releasing tension. Hotel breakfast waa free and tasteful. Staff was really friendly and helpful. The rooftop had the best views, drinks were good as well.
