I would go back and stay here
Cons:

Breakfast was not good at all, at least the free breakfast that comes with the room, Chilaquiles were not good at all, and kind of pricey for the poor quality of the food

Best massage
Pros:

Massage
Gabby is one of a kind to do massages she’s firm but soft at the same time.
She does such a great job.
Walked in with stress and walk out amazed of how lightweight you feel by removing so many knots in my back.

SCAM-$40 to use the pool on the beach and nice beach
Pros:

SCAM ALERT — DO NOT STAY HERE.

This hotel advertises beautiful photos of a beachside pool, jacuzzi, and private beach access, but fails to clearly disclose that guests have to pay an additional $40 fee just to use those amenities — even when booking a villa. The only “free” option is a run-down pool or basic beach access, which is extremely misleading compared to what’s shown online.

It feels like a complete money grab. We specifically booked this property because of the advertised amenities, only to find out after check-in that they’re locked behind extra charges. That information should be transparent before booking, not sprung on guests afterward.

Save your money and stay at Las Rocas Resort & Spa instead. Beautiful oceanfront pool and views included without all the hidden upcharges.

Very disappointing experience.

ESTO ES UNA ESTAFA — NO SE HOSPEDEN AQUÍ.

Este hotel anuncia fotos hermosas de una alberca frente al mar, jacuzzi y playa privada, pero no te dicen claramente que tienes que pagar $40 dólares extra para usar esas amenidades — incluso aunque reserves una villa. La única opción “gratis” es una alberca vieja y descuidada o acceso básico a la playa, lo cual es muy engañoso comparado con lo que muestran en línea.

Se siente como un completo robo y una manera de sacarle dinero a la gente. Reservamos este lugar específicamente por las amenidades que anuncian, y hasta después del check-in nos dijeron que había cargos extras para usarlas. Esa información debería ser transparente antes de reservar, no después.

Mejor váyanse a Las Rocas Resort & Spa. Tiene una alberca hermosa con vista al mar incluida, sin tantos cargos escondidos.

Qué decepción de lugar.

Body massage
Pros:

I can honestly say Gabby gave me the best body massage I’ve ever experienced. Her technique, professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to make you feel completely relaxed are on a whole different level. From the moment the session started, you could tell she truly cares about her work and her clients’ experience.

I walked in carrying so much tension and stress, and walked out feeling completely renewed. The pressure, flow, and overall experience were absolutely perfect. Gabby has an incredible gift and creates an environment that is both calming and welcoming.

If you are looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing and delivers an unforgettable massage experience, I highly recommend Gabby. Easily 10/10.
