El lugar ideal para descansar y relajarse; pocos camastros y palapas en la playa, en temporada alta debe ser imposible alcanzar alguno. El personal, lo MEJOR del Hotel, atentos desde antes de la llegada y durante toda la estancia. Sin duda una gran elección.

Magical hotel in a magical beach town!

What a magical little hotel right on the beach! I loved staying at this place, it was private, close to town, close to great bars, and had delicious breakfast food right on the beach. I can’t wait to come back to this magical town and stay at this hotel.

Excelente para relajarse

El lugar esta muy bien cuidado dentro una zona de palmeras y plantas tropicales. Esta a pasos de la playa. Lo unico que no funciona muy bien es el WiFi y la red de datos del pueblo no es muy buena tampoco

Excelente lugar con una ubicación justo en el corazón de Zipolite, las cabañas son muy bonitas y cómodas, el personal fue muy amable y servicial, siempre al pendiente de nuestras necesidades, el ruido de la zona es inevitable ya que frente al hotel hay un bar concurrido, sin embargo, resolvimos con tapones para dormir. Sin duda regresaría!!

Amazing hotel situated by the beach. It's quite, clean and well designed. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful Mexican sun. The only difficulty is the WIFI which never works. You thus really relax...

Excelente hotel fusionado con la naturaleza

Un hotel muy bonito, comodo, enmedio de la naturaleza, el entorno muy respetuoso con el ambiente, pero no descuidan el confort, la alberca es muy agradable, limpia y en muy buen estado, cuentan con camastros a orilla de playa con servicio de restaurante y bar. El personal amable, muy atento, cuentan con estacionamiento. El unico detalle con el que batalle un poco fue con los mosquitos por la misma vegetacion abundante de la zona, pero yo siempre batallo con eso, por todo lo demas fue una experiencia muy grata que sin duda repetiría
