Great property. It is not adult-only per Expedia. Kids/families are welcome. The reception can organize activities for you to do. Food is fresh and delicious. Staff is very friendly and accommodating

This is a gem of a property in a unique surfing village at the edge of the world. An adventure to get to and a throw back to simpler times. Everyone is friendly and helpful and the food is amazing. Ocean views from the rooms, two beautiful pools, and a roof top Jacuzzi along with a wonderful on site restaurant make this a great choice. Lots of walkable options for food and drink or jump in a Tuktuk for a fun way to travel. Hotel Ka'ana is wonderful!

A fantastic, central location, on the beach just a short walk to everything, yet peaceful & quiet. The entire property is gorgeous & feels luxurious. The pools in particular are amazing. Get there now.

We loved the second pool. You could hang out all day because it was shaded and had benches to sit on underwater.

The price point was too high for its location, during my visit there was construction, so the noise was ever present. Upside is the very short walk to the beach.

Our room with a water view was great. Like most rooms it had sliders to a balcony but also had a private terrace with a soaking pool. Nice. The hotel’s two pools and jacuzzi are a plus… as is the fact that at the ocean can actually be entered and enjoyed unlike other areas of the beach. Watching the surfers is a treat. The staff is accommodating and friendly. The restaurant is good. The two fish dishes we had for dinner were excellent as was our breakfast choices. We will be back. It was a very enjoyable time.

The property was overall nice but there is very limited view of the ocean as most of the property is blocked in front by new buildings. The website shows older pictures that do not show the new buildings blocking the view and there is continued new construction creating a mess to walk through from the Ka’ana gate to the beach. This wouldn’t have been so disappointing if they were honest in their advertisement and description of the property and rooms. I paid a premium price for a master suite with ocean view. There was no view of the ocean at all. They did move us to a smaller room on the end where you could see the ocean (also overlooking the cemetery!) but they still charged us for the full price of the master suite AND more because they had a higher conversion rate from Quetzals to USD ( I was charged about $60 more than the price I booked for and was given a room that should have been $50 less per night) I was originally told we would be charged the lesser rate but they didn’t follow through. As well, the room needed cleaning, we had to ask for towels, and to have the sheets changed (they had ink marks on the pillow cases). They did attend to the cleaning needs quickly when we asked, but I shouldn’t have had to ask! The staff were very nice and helpful. They made the stay good (thanks Emily and Jose!) But due to the poor management (mgr did not compensate or show any care about the overcharge), lack of cleanliness, and false advertising, I would caution booking here.
