8.4/10 Very Good! (10 reviews)
Really loved this place. Unique architecture. Beautifully decorated, with a great sense of detail. The staff were amazingly helpful and friendly (shoutout to Abel and Shirley). The owners helped us with a recommendation of a doctor. The location at the beach is great. The pool is beautiful. Views of the ocean from all rooms. We will be back!

We stayed for 9 night so it was important that we had all the comforts of home. Coastlands provides that and even more. The bed was comfortable. Staff was always pleasant. The breakfast range varied every day which made it enjoyable. The hotel is only a short walk to Gateway shopping mall and is located in a very safe area.
