Sergio, May 2025
Pros (+) Small hotel, very quiet and cosy. Surrounding space is beautiful, lots of animals around (but not in a scary way) and food in restaurant was very good. Everyone was kind, respectable and friendly with us and our son.
Cons (-) Dinner service only started at 7pm, which with small children can be tricky to accomodate. And bar service for food stops at 5pm so there's a gap where it's hard to get food in the hotel. But staff were accommodating in terms of getting food in take away boxes from breakfast/dinner.

Fabienne, Apr 2025
Pros (+) Beautiful smaller hotel between all the massive hotels. Nice views from the terrace and good food. Breakfast and dinner are not very special but tasty. Lunch options are really nice.
Cons (-) The beds in the bungalows are quite small.

Gabor, Apr 2025
Pros (+) Lovely little hotel, great place to chill out, great staff, decent prices at the bar. You absolutely need a car/taxi. Avenida 5 is about 25 minutes by car (that is not a bad thing, you just need to be aware).
Cons (-) We absolutely loved the place, so these are just a few minor points for improvement: - service was a bit slow - coffee at breakfast wasnt quite up the the standard of the place

Pros (+) Lovely property. It was nice to have a restaurant serving healthier food options. I was very impressed by their salad bar. The beach was lovely. Rooms are simple but clean. The complementary yoga was a lovely touch.

Pros (+) The setting, furniture, and vegetation make the resort very charming. The food for breakfast and dinner exceeded our expectations for quality and variety. The staff was friendly and attentive.
Cons (-) Not being able to access the ocean in front of the property was not ideal with young children (you need to walk a few hundred meters), although the abundant seaweed made the sea less attractive than the pool anyway. WiFi in the room had poor signal.

Thomas, Mar 2025
Pros (+) Right on the beach. Amazing sand. Small facility with 30 rooms in 5 buildings. Plus, it's has around 20 bungalows. Great breakfast buffet and dishes from the menu are included. We didn't eat dinner at the hotel, though many did. You will want to have a car due to the distance from Playa del Carmen. Right in front of the hotel is not great for swimming due to coral and spiny urchins. Very short wal...

Kristi, Mar 2025
Pros (+) Small charming hotel, with very nice green garden where you may see local animals hanging around. Every morning we watched sunrise in the beach, during this time they offer coffee for the early birds! After that we went to yoga class. The bed and pillows were good, room was quiet, rooms are very basic, and nothing special. Hotel personnel is very kind and helpful. We arrived at 10AM and got the ro...
Cons (-) Nothing, we liked everything! :)
