The staff was very friendly and helpful. ##### Jonathan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Sep 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property and room was very clean and well kept. The location is great to walk everywhere....from the beach to the main street for taxis. Breakfast options were great and the restaurant staff were always smiling and welcoming. Would have been nice to have bottled water replaced everyday in the room as we stayed 5 nights. Dinner however, was a disaster. We ordered a seafood platter, most expensive on the menu, and everything was dry, overcooked, and cold. We mentioned to the servers and was hoping the owner or manager would be concerned and adjust the price, but sadly no. There are many great seafood restaurants to choose from in Puerto Lopez (Carmita's), and within easy walking distance. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 12, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff was wonderful.

Yes, there were a few problems, and a few things could have been better, but in the grand scheme of things, not worth mentioning! I wouldn't have wanted to move anywhere else for the 4 nights I was there! Well run, professional staff, great restaurant and very friendly! Edgar, from Columbia, was outstanding and spoke very good English. Diane, the "wellness woman" gave the BEST massage I have ever had anywhere!!! ##### Laura Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicolas Jul 20, 2021 ##### Nicolas Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 10, 2020 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### JORGE Dec 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### JORGE Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Sep 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Nestor Jul 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Nestor Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias, A Trademark All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Royal-Decameron-Complex-All-Inclusive.h485427.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Bahia Mita Surf & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Dreams-Bahia-Mita-Surf-Spa.h63854352.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vatican](https://www.expedia.ca/Vatican-Rome-Hotels.0-n6046253-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel el descanso del Guia](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Ayora-Hotels-Hotel-El-Descanso-Del-Guia.h17525206.Hotel-Information) > > [Scuba Lodge & Ocean Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Willemstad-Hotels-Scuba-Lodge-Ocean-Suites.h5274969.Hotel-Information) > > [The Club, Barbados Resort & Spa Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Holetown-Hotels-The-Club.h13750.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d178288-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Beaver Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Beaver-Creek-Hotels.d177773.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Southern Palms Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Lawrence-Gap-Hotels-Southern-Palms-Beach-Club.h5633918.Hotel-Information) > > [Madeira Bay Resort II by Travel Resort Services](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Petersburg-Clearwater-Hotels-Madeira-Bay-Resort.h1563261.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Free Parking in Old Quebec](https://www.expedia.ca/Old-Quebec-Quebec-City-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Parking.0-n6058216-0-tHotelswithFreeParking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Valencia](https://www.expedia.ca/Valencia-Hotels.d3713.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Narita (NRT) to Da Nang (DAD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/nrt/dad/tokyo-to-da-nang) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/mco/ottawa-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Reggio Calabria (REG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/reg/ottawa-to-reggio-di-calabria) > > [Flights from Hamilton (YHM) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhm/las/hamilton-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to Seattle (SEA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lax/sea/los-angeles-to-seattle) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yvr/calgary-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Liberia (LIR) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lir/yyz/liberia-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Istanbul (IST)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ist/toronto-to-istanbul) > > [Flights from London (YXU) to Sudbury (YSB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxu/ysb/london-to-sudbury) > > [Flights from Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/31/flights-from-canada) ### Cars > [Enterprise at 4932 Sheppard Ave Scarborough Ontario CAN](https://www.expedia.ca/Enterprise-at-4932-Sheppard-Ave-Scarborough-Ontario-CAN.v20325.Car-Rental-Guide-Location) ### Packages > [Las Vegas Strip Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Strip.d800045.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Shelburne Farms](https://www.expedia.ca/Shelburne-Farms-Shelburne.d553248621533116702.Vacation-Attraction) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu Golf Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Fairmont-Le-Manoir-Richelieu-Golf-Club-La-Malbaie.d6225799.Vacation-Attraction)
