Staff were accommodating and amazing. ##### Tracey Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Clare 10 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Great location near the beach, restaurants and convenience stores. We had a studio that opened onto the shared pool, which was nice to have in June heat. Housekeeping staff did an excellent job. The only minor issues were a couple of wooden doors, one in the bathroom that kept swinging in the way and the other the door into the studio that didn’t seem to close securely. Checking in was a little confusing as there are three different buildings, but staff were helpful in guiding us down the street to our entrance. ##### Clare Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pamela A 8 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Great location This was our second time at this location.

We had a great time at our stay. While the pool's aren't anything extravagant, they are nice, well taken care of and offer nice privacy. Each building has its own pool as well so they're never busy. We would definitely stay here again, the staff went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay in bucerias.

Outstanding staff. Bottom units can be a little dark, not a lot of natural sunlight...but we did not spend much time in the room other than sleeping. ##### William Joseph Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda 1 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### First time visit First time visiting Bucerias. Our stay was pleasant ant Casa Damian. All of their staff were attentive and kind. Various restaurants to choose from. Although we were told we would receive a 10% discount at Cafe de Bucerias, 5% was given. Beach is at a walking distance. We enjoyed watching the many iguanas that were lounging on a tree across the street from our room. Pool water was very warm. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1FCF129A1DA42BD4818E32736AB668071130C0901688243985466.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F43163CFE79FFD4BD807ABC4D7C80FC44A2C96F61688244005711.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7A3D30F4F6B586A06954651134594FC2553683231688244007813.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DA445DCA0B864DC57F6F2F23550CB3561F5B9CF41688244004783.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Linda Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carla 18 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication The Rufugio del Mar was a beautiful property. We stayed in building 2 which only had 7 units. They all had their own kitchen and bedroom/s. The staff were super friendly and the pool and gardens were immaculate. I would recommend staying on the second floor if possible as the lower units can be a little dark and do absorb a bit of noise from the above units. The location is 2 blocks from the beach and the property includes free beach chairs and umbrellas. They also provide free top of the line bikes. It wasn’t very busy when we were there so everything was readily available. Jorge, the owner is attentive and super helpful. We had an amazing stay. ##### Carla Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verenice 7 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Communication The place is a small exquisite place that I really liked. Beach and eateries were close. Because I was injured and couldn’t walk upstairs I was very disappointed that the elevators were not working because I couldn’t enjoy my time the family on the roof jacuzzi or pool :( Also, the place came equipped with plates, cups, utensils etc but were not supplied with soap/sponge to wash dishes or napkins. Some complimentary coffee/tea would have been much appreciated. Other than this, we enjoyed our time in this beautiful place. ##### Verenice Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley 16 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great experience made you feel like at home, good staff friendly service very comfortable.

The pool area was like a secret garden and the rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. My only complaints were that our room was located across the street from a restaurant that was loud at night and that we were unable to relax at the pool for half of our stay since other guests reserved the lounge chairs for the whole day. ##### Elaine Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin 31 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The 2 bedroom apartment we stayed at for 5 days was spacious with a big kitchen, fully equipped with a microwave, oven, coffee maker, dishes.
