Spent my stay with our two kids off season. Good location and incredible view to the ocean from our beds. Nice, rustic hotel. Close to Jose Ignacio's beach. Beautiful pool and great breakfast.

A super cool property, amazing history. Most of the staff were incredibly hospitable. Great vegan recommendations. A couple at the front desk were less friendly and awkward. For example, I asked about the property's history and the woman didn't like talking to me about it and actually texted her boss while we were talking who came over and made up an excuse for her to leave, lied and said that he was her husband, all of that so she wouldn't have to talk to me about the history of the hotel. It was awkward. But the other staff members are so nice that it made up for it. And the building is super cool and the whole street that it's on is amazing. You can take pictures forever

"Nice place, friendly staff, family-oriented rather than couples-oriented. Some moments of truth were subpar for a 5 star hotel. It’s probably a 4.5 hotel, not 5."
