The hotel is perfect for a tropical beach getaway. There are no shops or restaurants nearby. So it really is stay on site location. However the hotel offers boat trips & water sports like canoeing. The setting really is paradise. I would go again

I wouldn't go back, considering customer service in columbia they did all right but from the mosquitoes and lack of options for activities and really mediocre beach and overpriced food and services there's just isn't any reasons to be in such a remote overpriced place where it's almost impossible to get an Uber driver or a taxi driving to give you a price less than $150 each way and there is also no hotel service that could take you to local activities for reasonable price less than $100 AKA you're stuck there the whole time. Personal experience all of us were sick at the end before we left so I can't even say any of the food was all right.

he hotel is very beautiful, very well maintained facilities, the spectacular pool, very nice decoration, the service of the staff is extraordinary, all very friendly and very attentive to make your stay pleasant, the two things that for me were negative is that the food is expensive for the little they serve and the access by car is terrible, it is an uncovered road and with tremendous gaps that no taxi gets there, I had to walk about a mile with suitcases to the hotel, it was quite frustrating ....
