La Serena Beach Hotel

"Lovely place. Maria is very welcoming and helpful. The garden goes a long way back through a nice patio area all the way down past the pool to the breakfast room. All very stylish as are the rooms. We were going to have the Junior suite (twin) but were offered a double at the front of the house and took that (although I wouldn’t recommend for light sleepers as there is road noise and people going in and out of the front door). Very good breakfast. FYI There is a house dog; a small thing that wanders around. Nothing too problematical (unless you have an alert/phobia) but it did bark quite often and there was dog mess by the pool a few times which wasn’t pleasant."

"Efficient front-desk staff, a comfortable quiet room on the 3rd floor,and an excellent breakfast "

"Friendly helpful staff, right across the street from the beach, an easy walk to some restaurants and sights and a nice comfy room, thumbs up!"

"Location, location, location. That is all you need to know. Oh, they have secure motorcycle parking. That too is important. And the breakfast is AMAZING! But Location Rules. And this is just an amazing location. If you want a new, Americanized place, this might not be it. Hot shower too!"

"Staff were brilliant, loved the hotel generally- difficult to get hot water for a shower but the hotel was so lovely I wouldn’t hesitate to return"
