I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms had balconies with a great view towards the Ciénaga de La Virgen, providing very enjoyable views. The service was top-notch, and the location was perfect, right on the beach directly behind the Sonesta. While the dining experience was excellent, the facilities could use a bit of improvement.
This hotel offers a wonderful experience with its breathtaking views of Ciénaga de La Virgen from the rooms and the lovely balconies. However, there were some limitations in terms of amenities and nearby activities.
I couldn't have asked for a better location; right by the beach with breathtaking views of Ciénaga de La Virgen. The rooms with balconies offered very enjoyable views, but the price seemed a bit high. The service was top-notch with an array of amenities available. The dining was exquisite, with a focus on organic fruits. However, the facilities could use a bit of an upgrade.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel with very enjoyable views towards Ciénaga de La Virgen from my room's balcony. The location is superb right next to the beach, although it's better not to walk down that side. The dining experience was fantastic, especially the octopus millefeuille, but I wished there were more dining options available.
