This was a great hotel. The view of the ocean from the balcony was amazing. As a bonus, we also had a view of The Scorpion Temple ruins from our balcony as well. We had a 2 bedroom villa that was well appointed. The beds were very comfortable with ceiling fans in every room for added comfort. The bathrooms had jacuzzi tubs with a separate shower and soft, thick, absorbent towels. The kitchen had everything we needed, from a lime juicer to a blender capable of crushing ice for a nice frozen Pina colada. The coffee maker had a built in filter and the hotel supplied a few packs of coffee along with some sugar, salt, and pepper packets, dish soap, and a few dishwasher detergent packs. There was enough plates, silverware, and cups for 6 people, along with pots and pans to cook with. There was a convection microwave and cook top, but no oven.
The pool was nice, but you need to get down there early to get chairs next to each other. There is a nice and surprisingly challenging putt putt golf course on site that you can get the clubs and balls for through the kids club. There is also a ping pong table and giant chess game you can play during rainy weather. The on site gym is very well equipped with varying hand weights, kettle balls, TRX straps, treadmills, stair steppers, and various nautilus machines. It also has a sauna and a steam room.
The La Isla shopping center is across the street from the hotel with plenty of restaurants and shopping ranging from souvenir t-shirt shops to high end stores. There is a Soriana grocery store a 10 min walk (or a 3 min bus ride) away with everything you could need and the prices are on par with American prices.
We enjoyed our stay here immensely and plan to return.
