Defenitely worth the stay!
Pros:

The Suite room was much better than expected. All very clean and appropriate. Ample space. Beds very comfortable. Small balcony with view to the Salinas and port. Food in the restaurant was awesome, super yummy, both the meat and the fish.l, but also the pizzas. Staff is very nice people and you feel like at home. I also rented quads from them for a one-day tour of the island. No problems. I would no doubt repeat again.

Cons:

Nothing really. I loved the place and the isle.
