Enjoyed our stay
Pros:

Loved the pool that overlooked the ocean. Also loved that you could always get a chair around the pool

Cons:

Rooms need updating and coffee makers in the room at the very least. Also should monitor families walking in off the beach with a bunch of kids and using the pool & facilities while not staying there. It’s a peaceful place and then you get people not even staying there drinking at the bar while their kids run wild screaming around the pool with no supervision.

Good value. Amazing location.
Pros:

The location is amazing and the ability to use the sister resort was awesome. The access to 26 nearby pickleball courts was amazing, as was access to the beach.

Cons:

Rooms are extremely dated with very poor access to plugins for charging electeonics. The lack of a TV was disappointing.

Beautiful ocean front property, but make sure that there are basic appliances in there.
Pros:

The food was excellent. The cleaning staff was excellent. Location was excellent.

Cons:

We paid for an ocean front view, and it was a beautiful view, but there was no microwave, no coffee maker, no utensils in the room. When we asked the staff for at least a microwave or a coffee maker, they said there was none available. After we insisted that we must have at least one, we were promised that it would be delivered, but none came. We ended up borrowing from our friends who were kind enough to loan us one of their appliances. For the price of the oceanfront view that we paid for, it is not OK to NOT have these basic comforts. We went to the local market to buy our own instant coffee and milk as it was not provided in the room. We borrowed coffee mugs from our friends and a spoon from the restaurant. Apparently, a few rooms had both appliances, but most of our friends had neither. I believe all our rooms did have refrigerators. There were 18 of us in the group, mostly couples. We had similar issues with lack of adequate appliances.

Beautiful Location
Pros:

The view from the pool to the beach was amazing. The breakfast and lunch/dinner restaurants were very good. Loved the Happy Hour and Sunday football specials.

Cons:

We had a double room. We had two beds The beds were hard and too short for my 6'4" husband. We were OK having our own beds, but the size was somewhat small.

Los Barriles Beach a paradise
Pros:

The place has a beautiful beach but the rooms are like a inexpensive motel in USA, no TV, only water. But the price is because of the location the best beach you can find.
