Hotel is very nice. It is right on the beach. The property has two main pools and children’s one as well. Also has water slides. The hotel is very nice and has great food. The price is very affordable. The rooms are a little dated and need a refresh. Overall the experience was great.

Good hotel on the beach, large rooms, good pools, we had a corner ocean front suite with great views to the beach and mountains, two balconies. Missing kitchen towels, paper tissues, face towels and coffee (you can buy it at their mini market), also they don't have courtesy bottles of water.

Room is outdated compared to Estelar Alto Prado with a more modern room, Washington Plaza and Estelar Bocagrande

In general the property and the overall experience was good. The check in and check out are crowded and disorganized. The staff (check in and check out) does not provide accurate information.

The maid stole my wallet with 3 credit cards and a stash pf 250 us dollars

5-night trip

2/10

Worst stay i had in my entire life anywhere in the world. This place really hates foreigners. The staff is rude and mean. First of all they charged me a 300 000 tax once my colombian wife arrived later in the day (2 night stay ). Staff at the pool wouldnt let us use the available beach bed while locals where using all the others ones cause they said it might be raining soon ( clear sky without a single cloud ) Pool was closed !!! Then... They told us it was karaoke night at the resort bar and then we got REFUSED entry cause they said " there is too many people ". It wasnt even full and some people were living as we arrived and they still didnt let us in. Couldnt use spa either or get a massage cause their spa service was fully booked for the 3 days we were there. For an hotel that expensive they should be totally ashamed of the service this hotel has given me. DISGUSTING

2-night trip

6/10

All inklusive but not at all “-all inklusive”. Coffee, ice cream, drinks, bottle water, all cost extra. Extra cost - taxes on food for foreigners - we were told it was the law, but asking again and again no one was able to show us it in written. Facilities warn, not much (if any) updates since we were there 5 years ago. The morning I used the gym it was not opened before 7.00 and it say opening at 6.30. After contacting reception at 6.40 it still took 20 min. to open. And food is in general not at very high level. Drinks was good, but extra cost.
