Solace after storm

Simple and quiet. Staff was helpful in finding local places to eat. Relaxed by the pool with wild parrots and magpies singing nearby. An lone outpost surrounded by a hurricane destroyed waterpark. Locals play pickleball and volleyball there, so it has its own noncommercial community life. Truly restful and quiet.

There was a larger than usual presence of stray dogs. The facility looked a bit rundown, like it promoted itself online with pictures from 10 years ago.

Avoid at all costs

Do not stay here under any circumstances. No wi fi. No hot water. Beds are rock hard. Air con unit is so loud it made me jump every time it turned on. Stains all over bathroom. This place has clearly not had a cent invested in it in decades. Sleeping under a bridge is preferable to this place.

El personal es excelente, desde recepción , los empleados de el restaurante (barra) el joven que mantiene limpio los alrededores, en fin todos. Es un lugar acogedor q cuenta con dos piscinas (una para los niños pequeños y otra para los adultos y jovenes) cancha de baloncesto y volleyball. Le hace falta cariño al edificio como tal , el area de la piscina esta disponible hasta las 12media noche q es muy bueno.
