The location, resort, and staff were great. The only down fall is that the bathroom did not have ventilation and the window in the bathroom felt like you did not have privacy, but besides that It was wonderful stay.

We booked very last minute and only for one night but I wish we had been here longer. Excellent location, the breakfast was the finest we have had in Colombia and the waiting staff are beyond attentive. The room was clean and comfortable. I genuinely cannot find fault with this lovely hotel. I would certainly return and I highly recommend staying here.

Great service in a lovely area

The service was top notch. I loved that the property felt just the right size- big enough to have a great restaurant and nice facilities, but still relatively small (I think 15 rooms).

Nice hotel but loud guests may ruin your stay

The hotel is nice and the rooms large and confortable. Unfortunately, the room hot tubs are on the balconies and you may get loud guests disturbing your rest. There should be enforceable times at night the tubs to be shut down.

The place itself is beautiful and the staff are nice. A lot of small things just didn’t work, it seemed like they weren’t ready for visitors. The worst one was the AC, which for a place this expensive you would expect to work. They also charge a crazy amt for playing on their paddel court, which was just weird.
