Room was very nice, large and clean. Food was good, not excellent. Location excellent however no beach access. Beach 2 blocks away. Unfortunately seaweed issues. Staff great until my husband became sick. They wouldnt allow me to bring him food to the room. I guess they would prefer him to go to the eating areas and get everyone else sick. He had fever, chills, aches, etc. Which he finally did and we prayed he didnt get others sick. Disappointed in lack of empathy and lacknof concern to other guests not getting sick.

This adults only resort is easily the best experience for the dollar available in PDC. With large immaculate modern rooms, world class food and cocktails, and stellar service the place can’t be beat for the price. And that rooftop vibe is top notch.

Fun place to stay - Rooftop pool has zen music quietly playing until about 10AM, then the DJ arrives & the subwoofers get energized! It’s an absolutely gorgeous view from up there, fun group of people (some day pass guests), a big bar, and kitchen for service to your cabana/table/lounger. Very reasonable & fantastic servers, I had Fransisco Miguel this past week, he was running around for 10 hours straight & superb at remembering every detail - plus a super nice guy! The entire team up there is great, overall the hotel has very good, friendly staff, it’s spotless & affordable - plus about a 1-minute walk to 5th Avenue, 3-4 minute walk to the beach…Mamitas beach club is at the dead end of the street 28. Enjoy! Tomasito
