Casa Cometa

Entspricht leider nicht einem 5 Stern Hotel und das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt überhaupt nicht.

Puisqu’il n’y a pas de frigo dans la majorité des chambre et aucun resto à moins de 15 minutes à pied, ma suggestion serait de donner accès à la cuisine afin de pouvoir se cuisiner soi-même des repas.

On nous a permis de mettre des choses dans le frigo de la cuisine, mais ça aurait vraiment été idéal de pouvoir cuisiner, surtout pour un séjour d’une semaine.

Je conseille vraiment de louer un scooter ou autre moyen de transport, pour vous rendre au restaurant et pour visiter.

Je ne recommande pas. L’établissement est insalubre (coquerelles dans le lit et à plusieurs endroits dans la chambre de luxe que nous avions réservée). J’ai tenté de demander une compensation à l’établissement, ce qui m’a été refusé. Réservez ailleurs pour le prix, vous aurez bien mieux!

Being that bit further out meant that there was nothing around to go to eat so felt a bit trapped but they did arrange some local food to be delivered.
Only complaint would be that we asked for breakfast on a couple of days and they said they couldn’t do it for some reason which meant we had to go into town. Fruit and eggs shouldn’t be hard to get in so not sure what the problem was. Apart from that, absolutely no complaints.

We were told that we could have breakfast at the property on our second day but when it came to it we were told it wasn’t available

Todo me gusto

Since it is on a hill, one might find it difficult to get to the towns of San Agustinillo and Mazunte on foot. We walked down a few times, but once we found a taxi or collectivo, it was easy to go between the house and towns. It seemed many tourists rent a motorcycle as well.

Poor reception from the staff, who couldn't speak a word of English. We had to hold the phone ourselves and translate. No smiles or welcoming attitude. Additionally, the two European owners live on the top floor, host private dinners in the common areas, and tend to "fill" the space, making it feel more like staying with a couple than at a 5-star hotel, as it is marketed on booking.com. It is important to emphasize, however, that the owners are friendly people.

Casa Cometa is more like a guesthouse/Airbnb, where you rent a room but do not have access to a shared kitchen, and you need to ask for permission to get things from the fridge. There are ants all over the room and it is not very well insulated.

Furthermore, the air conditioning does not work in the bathroom, making it extremely hot and humid after a shower. This particularly applies to the "Balcony Suite" where we stayed. Casa Cometa has the potential to be a really nice hotel, but it does not quite live up to expectations.

You need to rent a scooter, ATV or have a car for the Guesthouse to be a convenient accommodation as there is no other way to get there by taxi or walk through completely dark streets.

It’s hard to get to, scooters or cars recommended. In-room mini refrigerators would be helpful.

There is a construction on the property next door, expect some noise during the daytime.

Staff is friendly, but not overly motivated. Them watching videos on their phones does not contribute to the tranquility guests seek. Suggestion: let the staff serve a couple of drinks, that way they are occupied and guests can get a cold beer or softdrink.

A short way out of the main town of San Agustinillo, so you need a taxi or to walk along the road - however taxis are easy to get, and it’s worth it to be up a bit higher and get the view.
