I had a great stay at this resort, Soooo much stuff to do as there is a beach strip right behind the resort. I seen a lot of reviews about bugs but the resort is sorta jungle themed so of course there’s bugs. I had one in my room which was like a beetle but other than that I had no issues with bugs. The tropical suits are not Luxury they are tropical themed suites exactly what they are meant to be so it really blows my mind at the negative reviews. If you want luxury book the other side! However the ambiance of the tropical side is amazing and I enjoyed my stay.

I loved my stay at the Kontiki beach resort. Stayed on the non-luxury side and it was beautiful. The landscape, pathways and pools are beautiful, relaxing and private. My only warning to other guests would be that on certain nights of the week that you won’t really know about in advance, you can hear very loud music from the bars on the beach and it goes till about 12 AM to 1 AM. Older than that, this resort really is beautifully appointed… The beach area and restaurants are photo worthy
