It is very clean and room distribution it's excellent to spend for long periods of time. I totally recommend staying at this place. ##### Joselyn Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Esteban 28 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything good. A place to stay twice. ##### Esteban ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel 5 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice. Good price and amenities ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura 26 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cute, well mantained spot 🌴 Very comfortable stay. Rooms were clean and the pool was fantastic. Walking distance to some nice beaches and some pretty decent restaurants so it was okay for us not having a vehicle. We were only there for one night in transit but the town seems really cute. The person who checked us in was very informative. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 21 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff is very friendly! The location is a short distance from the beach, and in the middle of local restaurants. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. This is not a high-end location. The rooms, surroundings and pool are just enough. Practical and reasonable. Not intended for higher-end tastes. Great location and staff to have an understanding of the local community. Feels like a mom-and-pop business. Welcoming. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Walter 17 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved the landscaping and the very clean pool. Our room was made up each time we asked; very nice. We wish there were hammocks, pepper at breakfast, a bar. The cats are special ##### Walter Stayed 9 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### MARY 21 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Rey nice accomodations and property. Pool area was nice too. Just a little to isolated for my liking. A golf cart or vehicle is recommended. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/48290FEA4D231DAC6264E9126FBCE3C1458314CF1676998676849.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### MARY Stayed 10 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ward 27 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities We liked the area, close to stores, restaurants and beaches. A bit noisy due to the road. Beds need to be updated, very firm and small. It’s a great little resort. ##### Ward Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 2 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I thought the hotel was nice and away from everything. It was minutes away from a grocery stop and a restaurant that I enjoyed a lot. If I was going back I would probably go back to the same place. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hugo 20 Jun 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very clean. Appropriate. Great price. Very short distance to Penca beach. Very close to good restaurants. ##### Hugo Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew 18 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities What a great experience! Very relaxing, super friendly staff. Lots of filtered water and Wifi available. The pool was kinda small but still nice. And you can definitely have an adventure if you walk out into the streets. I would stay at Bahia Esmeralda again. ##### Matthew Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### elizabeth 11 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The courtyard gardens were maintained and fit the need for privacy and enhanced the living spaces. The apartments were clean and simple. Basic living with amenities if wanted. The area local not tourist but close to basic needs. Staff was amazing ##### elizabeth Stayed 9 nights in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Rubery](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rubery-Birmingham-Hotels.0-n6231049-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Alaska](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Alaska.d203.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Sunrise Village Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalamata-Hotels-Sunrise-Village-Beach.h1314251.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Reserva Conchal, an All-Inclusive Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cabo-Velas-Hotels-The-Westin-Reserva-Conchal.h4151182.Hotel-Information) > > [Secrets Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Papagayo-Hotels-Secrets-Papagayo-Adults-Only.h10650279.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Bournemouth Town Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Town-Hall-Hotels.0-l553248621555650949-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Whitehaven](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitehaven-Hotels.d6193236.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Barcelo Hotels in Lanzarote](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lanzarote-Hotels-Barcelo.0-0-d282--bBarcelo.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Barcelona Colonial](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Hotel-Barcelona-Colonial.h2814317.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Panama-Beach-Hotels-Occidental-Papagayo-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h659642.Hotel-Information) > > [Andaz Peninsula Papagayo Resort, Costa Rica, by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Papagayo-Hotels-Andaz-Costa-Rica-Resort-At-Peninsula-Papagayo-A-Concept-By-Hyatt.h6476638.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Tamarindo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Occidental-Tamarindo-All-Inclusive.h793778.Hotel-Information) > > [Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Papagayo-Hotels-Planet-Hollywood-Beach-Resort-Costa-Rica-All-Inclusive.h21882911.Hotel-Information) > > [Riads Taghazout](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taghazout-Riads.d6153242-aaRiads.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Margaritaville Beach Resort Playa Flamingo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Playa-Flamingo-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-Resort-Playa-Flamingo.h189539.Hotel-Information) > > [Aavri Hotel Deira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Aravi-Hotel.h976996.Hotel-Information) > > [El Mangroove Papagayo, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Papagayo-Hotels-El-Mangroove-Papagayo.h6052327.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Papagayo-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Costa-Rica.h984916.Hotel-Information) > > [Shillingford Bridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wallingford-Hotels-Shillingford-Bridge-Hotel.h6952.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Valletta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valletta-Hotels.d2341.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [W Costa Rica - Reserva Conchal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cabo-Velas-Hotels-W-Costa-Rica-Reserva-Conchal.h24195607.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Kastrup (CPH) to Norresundby (AAL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cph/aal/copenhagen-to-aalborg) > > [Flights from Latham (ALB) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/alb/lhr/albany-to-london) ### Activities ### Packages > [Terrigal Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Terrigal-Beach-Terrigal.d6148407.Attraction) > > [Burj Khalifa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burj-Khalifa-Downtown-Dubai.d6083275.Attraction) ---
