A lovely and charming spot on our coastal drive! Fabulous location with the boardwalk right at the edge of the property - and fun having the spa and fireplace in our room. The staff were all so sweet and accommodating, especially Lisa, she is a gem! So thoughtful, knowledgeable and professional, she was awesome. If you're driving electric, make sure you have some charge bc the charger can be busy and our charging was a little problematic.

I had an amazing stay at El Colibri Hotel and Spa this weekend and couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience. Check-in was quick and the front desk team were genuinely friendly. The room itself was spotless, cozy, and quiet. Beds were super comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure. I loved the little details: fresh coffee in the morning, blackout curtains that actually worked, and USB ports right by the nightstand. The Nest Spa experience itself is a standout. I booked the 90-minute The Nest Signature Massage and my therapist, Linden, was incredible. She checked in about pressure, focused on my problem areas, and I left feeling like someone finally unkinked three years of bad posture. Breakfast was a nice surprise too. The location made it easy to walk to the nearby beach, restaurants and the downtown area. Overall, I’d 100% book here again next time I’m in town.
