Amazing stay at El Sueno Tropical Hotel
We loved our stay! It was such a perfect landing spot for us - close enough to town but not right in the mix at all. Erin was a superb host, and we really loved the included breakfast and coffees! Reading by the pool in the morning was a highlight as well. Their newly renovated facilities are fantastic and we’d recommend this hotel for sure!

Bel hôtel près de Samara :-)
Très beau site avec des chambres comfortables et propres. Le souper directement au bord de la piscine y as été délicieux et abordable. Des l’arrivée nous avons été reçu pas Erin qui est très charmante et a l’écoute de nos demandes. Un site tranquille, propre et accueillant pas très loin d’une magnifique plage que j’ai hâte de revisiter pour plus de nuits et que je recommande fortement. Asta luego Erin !
