It was an amazing experience. Pretty quiet and to get shopping or good food you need to take the warer taxi to boca Island but all in all pretty good experience.

Great location! Lovely paradise ❤️👏 this place is amazing, being at this island is magical. No coffee in the room, but there is coffee in the restaurant included every morning. No water in the room, in the restaurant they have or small market they have bottle water. One of the rooms didn’t have hot water and no cable, but the second have it nice. We love the experience, the owner a great person and the staff very nice too. Best place to stay, we saw all color fish 🐠 just there in the room deck, safe for kids, lovely views great location

The staff was truly some of the nicest people in the world. It hurts that the hotel itself was such a bad experience, because judgement on the people alone they were wonderful. Unfortunately, the hotel itself was not what apparently it used to be. There are roaches in one of the buildings (in one of our rooms), the showers were peeling or moldy with bad water pressure. The sheets on the bed were not always clean and the air-conditioning barely worked. The key cards to the doors easily demagnetized, and some rooms just wouldn’t open in general. We ended up having to get three different rooms (only 2 nights). The first room switch was because the staff couldn’t get us into the room, and the second switch was because we had roaches in the room all night.
