Hotel La Vista Azul

Staff was kind

I had an amazing stay at this place. The price was fair and reasonable for the amount of space and amenities onsite. I stayed in a studio unit because I was a solo traveler. I had everything I needed. There were plenty of toiletries, sheets, and towels within the unit. For convenience, there was also a washer and dryer. Cleaning service was great though they come at varying times during the day. The staff were nice as well. They safely kept my stuffs after check-out since my flight was way later in the day. I liked the convenience around. There were plenty of food places (I went to at least 5-6 different ones) and the beach near-by. I budgeted to eat out. But my unit came with a kitchen which I did not use, so I couldn’t tell you if there are actually equipped with necessary utensils (did not check for any). The nearest supermarket was a little bit of a walk (at least 20 min) but 5 min drive; so I took a taxi (costed me $20… would not recommend). I would suggest to make ride arrangements prior, which I did, but the trip to the supermarket was unplanned because I had forgotten a few things at home. I went by the pools a couple of times and they were well maintained. Honestly, I would stay there again.

I checked in late because the room was not avaible at 4 h.

Didn’t get my room until 4:30 & it wasn’t properly cleaned. When I called the front desk the lady told me the cleaners had already left(don’t know how that’s possible). Then she essentially said I had to just be in a dirty room and there’s nothing she can do… she didn’t even try to help. It was disgusting

The property itself needs some attention and updating. When we arrived the shower floor looked dirty so we went and got cleaning supplies and a brush to do it ourselves since the room had just been cleaned. The jacuzzi looked as if it needed to be cleaned or retiled so never got in it. Things in the room just kept falling apart like the toilet paper holder or the towel racks to the point we just stopped putting it back together and left it on the window. The smoke alarm went off twice. Once while we were asleep at 7 am and stayed on for about 20 mins. Horrible sound and the other for about 5 mins. The bed was horrible to sleep in. The mattress kept sinking in at the headboard so we'd wake up with a stiff neck every morning. We had to put the cushions from the couch under the mattress to keep the mattress from sinking into the frame. The washing machine kept breaking after each use. They had to come reset the machine since the red button would kept blinking saying the lid was locked. The gym equipment needs some attention. Only have 2 45 plates so could use some variety and the machines looked like something from a 70s workout video. The location is about 10 mins away from everything so you definitely need to have a rental car. The grocery store is about 7 mins away and there are some good food spots close by. Go to MaMa's Island Kitchen. Jerk chicken and festival were so good. For a long stay it came in handy having kitchen and washer & dryer.
