Contadora hermosa
Pros:

la ubicación es una playa hermosa , tal vez la mas hermosa de la isla.

Cons:

Cuando ya se te acaba tu estadía haces check out debe usar una ducha horrible que esta por detras del hotel , un baño que se ensucia mucho por los pasadias. Deberian acomodar bien esa ducha y esos baños.

Enjoyable. Would go back some day.
Pros:

Clean beach. Hard to access if you have issues walking, as you need to go up and down a steep hill to get to and from the hotel to the beach.

Location was amazing. The views were to die for.

The room and hotel, in general, were a little dated but very functional.

Cons:

Not much to do in the evenings. The island is really small, and they do not allow any kind of loud entertainment. That means that after dinner, you are pretty much confined to your room.
