    Dorms were very hot at night, no small reading lights or curtains. Sorry but the music they play is awful - commercial pop trash / constant party music (stuff like Barbie) - hopefully someone with taste can sort this out as it was a massive vibe killer! One of the staff seemed offended when I asked for them to put something more chilled on at 8am. They also overcharged me for fees I had already paid through Booking.com. Other than that, had a nice time 🤣

    Great views, pool is nice and the food is good too Nice place to chill for a few days and not too far from Playa Maderas and shuttles available as well.

    It’s just a little worn down and needs some love, some pillows here and there and the sinks have mold, the plants need more water and the cleaning could be more thorough.

    The view is breathtaking! The food is amazing, we had breakfast and dinner every day (the dinner portions are super big), the drinks are also really good. The Staff is really nice and help with everything they can!

    Often the staff were unfriendly and the shower uses saltwater which messed up my hair.

    The sunset was incredible and they have a lot of communal space and yoga mats which I loved. Also the food was mostly quite tasty.

    The room wasn’t very clean. Especially the shower was very rusty and the water had a strange smell. The sunk wasn’t clean either. The room would get very stuffy and there were no mosquito nets on the windows.

    The view was incredible. There were mang options to chill out outside and enjoy it. The beds were comfortable and the room big. The food at the restaurant was incredibly good and fresh.

    We already knew before booking but the shower and tap water is salt water, something to be aware of before booking. In the mornings, there was also no water to shower, use the tap or flush the toilet. While we loved staying here, we felt these facilities should have been better given the price of the room.

    We loved staying here. The view is incredible and the food is great. Location is good, only a short 15 minute walk to the beach through the jungle.

    I didn't like that our room opened up directly onto the restaurant/ pool terrace. I think a privacy screen / wall could be built in the room to remedy this and make guests feel more comfortable 🤔 Lack of hot water and the water from the tap and shower was salty.

    The views, the food and the size of the room.

    Salt water was the only thing that came out of the faucet and shower. There was no hot water as advertised. No towels to wash myself

    The property was beautiful, my room’s view was breathtaking. The room itself was very large clean and really something to write home about.

    The rooms didn't have air con and so it was very hot and sticky at night however there were plenty of windows with bug nets to get some air flow in as well as a small standing and ceiling fan. The hot water pressure was 50/50 as to whether it was there or not at all but you didn't really need a warm shower.

    This is a delightful property in the hills of Maderas, overlooking Playa Maderas and the ocean. It has an cold infinity pool which has a great view and underwater seating to chill in. The breakfast was a decent selection of the usual suspects, egg, bacon and pancakes made to order. The room was spacious with two double beds and a third single bed. Wi-Fi was strong throughout the property and the food from the kitchen was excellent and reasonably priced.
