"First time staying in a non-alll inclusive resort and it was a home away from home I had room number 1 and 2. Full kitchen in both. Near everything we needed for excursions, motoconchos and Uber get there no problem. There is a couple lmadondown the hill 2 minute walk, with little bar and grill next to it. Edma offers a simple breakfast for an extra very minimal charge. But the restaurants near the marina are busy already with breakfast and lunch food. The staff are so accommodating and kind. Thank you Alejandro for keeping the generator going and answering. All my questions, Natividad keeps everything fresh and clean, Yeneline works the front desk during the day, another helpful and kind person. They all made my stay great, I am forgetting another woman's name that worked some of the shifts. She was great too. 10/10 recommend if you want to stay local.
