The staffs, room, price, and space for 4 adults. I read about the noise, shower, cleanliness problems in the reviews and worried but didn’t need. It was cold winter for the area this year and blankets were not thick enough for it but only for this year and couldn’t complain.

Amazing stay! I will definitely be booking again for my next trip to playa. We loved sipping coffee and having breakfast on our balcony every morning. The kitchen came in handy for cooking breakfast and some lunches. Bed was comfortable and it was overall clean, spacious and beautiful! The only thing that would have been nice would be to have some more cooking essentials like oil and salt. Other than that we absolutely loved our stay here and appreciated all the wonderful staff. Perfect location, we didn’t get a taxi once and just walked everywhere. Beach, restaurants, grocery etc. most things were within 15 mins walking or less! It was my first time staying off an all inclusive in Mexico and I much preferred to stay at this lovely hotel and explore the culture and local food! It felt extremely safe.

The staff were very approachable and helpful. Once we checked in we had issues with the WiFi and TV not connecting the staff did their best to solve the issue and once learning they needed an engineer they instantly upgraded our room. The rooms were comfortable and spotless. The roof top garden with pool is stunning though not big enough for the amount of guests and like everywhere you had people who would put towels down first thing and not be there most of the day. Con - noise, the walls are thin and if you are noise sensitive it may not be the place for you. Pro - very convenient, a few minutes walk to shops, restaurants and supermarkets and 5-10min walk to the beach. Overall we were very satisfied with our stay and would return.
