It was very unique. I highly recommend it. Some suggestions to make it more unique include: allowing us to charge phones in our rooms; make it more eco friendly by having people fill up water bottles from a main dispenser rather than small single use bottles. We liked the fact that the kayaks and snorkels were included. More local food choices on the menu.

Hay que tener mucho cuidado. Lo único bueno de este hotel es la fotografía del anuncio. No hay aire acondicionado (la temperatura es de casi 35 grados y la humedad altísima) Cuando llueve, el agua se mete por los techos, mojando todo. Solo hay electricidad para un par de focos. La actitud del staff es muy negativa. Nada se puede! Yo tenía reservado por 4 noches pero sólo aguantamos 1 y nos cambiamos a otro hotel. Se negaron rotundamente a reembolsarme las 3 noches no ocupadas. Todo muy frustrante y desagradable!

A beautiful place to relax and unwind, the location is unmatched and a bit remote but there is a restaurant and great service from all the staff! It was a hut on the water if you want luxury accommodations you will need to go to a luxury resort, we enjoyed the rustic feel and the tranquility!

Perfect spot to relax, swim out your back door and get away from it all. Really unique facilities. Great snorkeling - out your back door. Would love to come back. Nothing to complain about!

The food, the uniqueness, the atmosphere, and the staff were all excellent. The only drawback was luxurious comforts of a traditional hotel. If you were looking to disconnect, this is your place. If you were looking for action and excitement, this is not your place we had an amazing time and enjoyed the experience.

We were very disappointed in the property. Water: They did tell us not to drink it, even to brush your teeth and provided 2 small bottles of water per person per day. This is not enough water in such hot climate (we ended up purchasing water throughout the day). We have stayed at other self contained properties that did not have potable water and they just put a 5 gallon water jug and dispenser in the room so we are ok with that. It also smelled so bad you couldn't even shower in it, it literally made us gag. Food: I ordered salad with tuna. I got iceberg garnish lettuce with a few chunks of canned tuna sprinkled around. Yes CANNED. And not the good kind, the kind that smells like cat food. I would have thought given the location it would be fresh fish? The olives on the salad were spanish cocktail olives (vs black olives) green stuffed with pimentos. On a tuna salad? Dinner we ordered seafood and rice. The seafood was like rubber. All of it. The scallops, the octopus. It was terrible and we couldn't even eat it. The breakfast "omelet" with ham was strips of boiled lunchmeat ham and what tasted like Velveeta liquid cheese. Terrible. Staff: we always felt like we were inconveniencing them when ordering water, drinks or food (which is not included and we paid extra for). I might have understood this if it was an all inclusive. They weren't friendly or welcoming. We really wanted to like the place but would not recommend to anyone.

Beautiful location . Property is dated … expensive for what it is . Service in restaurant not good . Food is mediocre at best . Managers are helpful . Staff should reach out before you arrive . It is difficult to know how to get to . Shuttles are not convenient .
