Good place for value
This property is off the beaten path but had security and the tourist police station is down the road. We felt safe walking as 4 adults up the road for meals and massages. We had a 2 bedroom suite. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and addressed concerns immediately. For example they turned up our hot water heater immediately upon calling as we had lukewarm water. 2k of laundry was only 200 peso. Downside is breakfast starts at 7 and the 2 tours we did picked up way before this so we missed out. Also breakfast food was cold but they heated up our plates upon request. Also disappointed that only coffe is included no tea. At low tide, the eater behind the hotel was fun to explore. Nice pool.

This property in itself is a 4.5 to 5 star. The area around the property especially at the front gate is maybe a 2.5. So stay in the compound if you really want that good vibe and enjoy what the Beachfront has to offer

A nice small property. Everyone working there was very nice. Place was clean.
Nothing else right around the resort. A 10 minute or so walk to the main street, or other larger resorts

The rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is also accommodating and friendly 24 hours a day. The hotel is small so we could use the clean infinity pool almost exclusively. I would come back again.

Clean and spacious condo unit. We got complimentary upgrade to sea view. Staff and service was excellent. Pool and grounds were clean and not crowded. Location is gated and not really walkable. Great stay overall!

Resort had hostel feel and has awesome pool, private beach, and breakfast. Roght Outside the premises it can be a little sketchy, hence security and locked gates at night. Overall I enjoyed my 2 days here and would return if presented the opportunity.

This is a wonderful secluded, quiet resort. Great to act as a base to explore the islands. Beach is okay and is really an intertidal zone. Provides interest to those interested in nature but not very good for swimming. I would return.
