Pros:

Amazing view. Included breakfast with many options and available for a long time in the morning. Additional activities offered.

Cons:

Very noisy. The 'windows' in the showers are gaps with just mesh, no glass, so you can hear everything from the nearby street, including cars, blasting music, dogs barking early in the morning etc. The showers weren't very clean. 2 showers between 12 beds. One didn't lock, the other you couldn't adjust the water temperature. Shallow under bed lockers which you can't fit your backpack or suitcase in. Frequent power cuts and water outages, meaning you can't shower, flush, charge your phone or use the toaster at breakfast. The main room lights weren't very bright and there were no individual bed reading lights.

An amazing, relaxing stay with great energy — definitely a place I’d love to come back to.
Pros:

From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt calm and welcoming. The place is beautifully designed, clean, and well-maintained, with a relaxing vibe that instantly puts you in vacation mode. The attention to detail and the overall aesthetic really stood out.

Cons:

Honestly, there was nothing significant that we didn’t like. Everything was smooth and met our expectations, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Unpleasant
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

I s noise anybody walks into the hotel the pool was full of people anyone cames to the restaurant at any time. No privacy at all. The pool I couldn’t use because the hotel sells tickets for people to use it. Is not for the hotel customers. I t was horribly expensive experience

Pros:

Le déjeuné inclus est délicieux.
L’espace piscine avec les chaises longues sont agréables.
Les lit en dortoir sont confortables.

Cons:

Les douches dans le dortoir sont sale et remplis de moisissure. Et mes deux premières journées, impossible de prendre une douche car il y avait seulement de l’eau bouillante.
La propreté de la piscine également est médiocre, on dirait qu’elle n’est jamais lavé

סבבבבבבה בסבבה ריזורט סן פדרו
Pros:

המקום מהממם נוף מהממממם. טיפלו בי יפה ממש. סלסטה וקאטה בקבלה היו אדיבות ונתנו שירות ויחס לכל צורך. החדר שישנתי בו היה נקי ומסודר (דורמס) והמיטה היתה נוחה ממש. אהבתי את האווירה שהיתה בבריכה מוזיקה טובה אוכל טעים והצוות חמודדדים כאלה. חבל שלא היה לי יותר זמן שהות שם. היה יום פינוק כיפי ומהנה.הלוואי ואבוא שוב.

Cons:

אני נהניתי. לא היה משהו שלא אהבתי

Cons:

No es un hotel para descansar y no lo advierten en ningún lugar. El day pass no tiene restricción y puede llenarse al punto que la gente externa utiliza las sillas de la propia habitación. Lugar pequeño para permitir tantas personas

Not exactly a "resort" in the traditional sense, but nice if you don't mind some noise and no A/C
Pros:

The staff is very friendly and the breakfast buffet that was included in our stay was generous and varied. The pool and yoga areas are picturesque and very well set up for photo opportunities. The view from the property is lovely as it's along the waterfront. There was also an offering of on-site yoga (payment being extra) that was convenient. If you like people, there seemed to be a variety of young folks coming on site to enjoy the pool and restaurant.

Cons:

On the Booking.com site, it said this property had air conditioning -- this was false, THERE IS NO AIR CON. The walls of the bedroom did not reach the roof -- there is a space at the top which is cut out and covered in mesh, making a makeshift small window. I understand the natural cooling aspect of this, but this place should not be marketed as having A/C. Also, because of this window, the rooms are NOT SOUND-PROOF. Upon check-in, we were handed soft earplugs, which I was confused about, but quickly understood later, because my room was right across from the pool, which made it really loud at night when music was playing from the restaurant area and sometimes from the beach area outside the property. The electricity flickered waxed and waned in power when we were there, which made it difficult to see in the evenings.
