The resort was right on the beach which was lovely. The restaurant served really delicious food. The resort itself is quite outdated and not as fun if you’re staying for a while.

Extremely old and rundown. Filthy room. Zombies for employees. We expected less than perfect, but this was a new level of disappointment. Barstaff and waitstaff spent most of their time staring into computer screens. No customer service skills at all.The food was awful. There was no comfort to be had anywhere. The mattress had to be at least 20 years old and hard as cement. Bathroom was so small, miniature toilet and shower. No TV and no usable furniture. The grounds were so neglected, pool was unusable. It was rotted and missing thousands of tiles. It was so sad to see. It must have been beautiful at one time. There was no fishing available. It looked like a boat junk yard and no one would answer my question of when was the last time a boat was actually launched there. We planned to stay for 5 nights but left after 1 sleepless night and burned another day traveling to another location. We had been looking forward to visiting this resort for many years, but it was just to uncomfortable to stay.

A little hard to find. A little bit old hotel, but nice. The beach is extremely nice, and food great.

Everything about this resort is awesome! Completely spring fed. Beautiful grounds. Pool and jacuzzi perfect temperature. Right on the beach. Excellent, excellent healthy food. Gourmet all the way. Not expensive. Staff very nice. 💯 would stay here again and again. Family owned for decades.

The rooms could definitely use updating. However the food and drinks are outstanding. The pool and chairs are very nice. Despite the rooms, we would go back.

Is the location and the grounds were phenomenal. Rooms were very dated looks like nineteen seventies or eighties. Definitely not wheelchair accessible. No television But the beach and grounds were Phenomenal. We stayed only one night on our way to La Paz. Did not try the internet. Overall, we're happy we stopped here. No TV's in the room.

Power was out at the resort for 1/2 of a day. I understand things can happen, but this was highly inconvenient for my short stay there. Also, WiFi was terrible/non-existent (even when power was on). I later learned at checkout you can get a room wifi repeater. This was not mentioned during check-in. As a traveling working professional, stable power and wifi is essentials.

Beds were comfortable and location on the beach is great. We had a hammock right outside our patio door. However, the bathroom needed lots of love and the hotel restaurant, while it served good food, was quite expensive.
