The hotel is located in a beautiful area with one of the best beaches around, making it a great spot to relax. The rooms were really comfortable, but I had a bit of an issue being next to the gym where I could hear music from their workouts. The service was friendly and very helpful, though everything could have been better coordinated, particularly during meal times. Overall, it was a nice stay but with a few hiccups.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were beyond comfortable and well-kept, the location felt a bit deserted and didn't offer much excitement. The staff was incredibly friendly and supportive, which made my stay more pleasant. However, the dining options left something to be desired, and the facilities could have been better organized given the price.

My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location is amazing, being right on one of the best beaches in the Baru area. The rooms are comfortable, and the staff is super friendly. However, I wasn't thrilled about being placed next to the gym, as I could hear the music from my room. The breakfast options were somewhat limited too, making the dining experience less than ideal. Overall, I think it offers good value for money, although there are some drawbacks.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The location is absolutely amazing, right by one of the best beaches in the Baru area. The service was incredibly friendly and supportive throughout my stay. On the downside, my room was a bit small and unfortunately, it was right next to the gym where I could hear the music.

I had a stay that had its ups and downs. The location is absolutely stunning with one of the best beaches in the area, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. However, the rooms felt a bit cramped, and being next to the gym was not ideal since I could hear the music clearly. Overall, it’s a decent place if you don’t mind the noise and want a beautiful beachfront escape.
