Great hotel within walking distance of all of Santa Cruz. Not impressed with wifi service being sketchy and unreliable in our room. Staff and other services were fine.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I am pro-eco friendly hotels. But when you have to request shampoo and toilet paper the first 3 days of our staying, and nobody shows they care to cover our needs, is not ok. We ended up buying our own Shampoo, toilet paper and toiletries. We travel light with 1 backpack and we trust that the Hotel would provide basic services, but this was not the case.

Liked most everything. No dresser for clothes was a bit of a turn-off and additional cost for a bar fridge. I’ve never stayed in a place in Huatulco that did not have these basic options. Overall though pleased with the rest of the stay
