The ocean at your doorstep, in a beautiful family-led hotel.
Pros:

The ocean view is stunning. It’s great to have a balcony and shared outdoor spaces to enjoy it in a calm and relaxing environment. The hotel offers whales tour in the Magdalena Bay, and that’s the best choice we could make. Captain Pepe is passionate and professional, and he brought us to the unforgettable adventure of seeing grey whales, dolphins and sea lions. I would totally recommend it!

Die beste Möglichkeit um 2 Tage vollkommen zu entschleunigen und zu genießen.
Pros:

Die Lage war sehr gut, direkt an der Lagune. Freundlicher und sehr zuvorkommender Service. Das Zimmer mit einer gemütlichen Veranda und nebenan eine schönen Hotelbar mit der Möglichkeit einen tollen Sonnenuntergang zu genießen.

Magnifique
Pros:

La chambre moderne, le lit King très confortable, la cuisine sympathique (j’ai souper à la langouste). Mais LE plus magnifique est la sortie aux baleines. Même si nous étions tard en saison, le capitaine Pépé connaît sa baie et nous avons vu de très près, dans le respect des animaux et le silence, des baleines grises (j’ai même respiré 2 fois le jet d’air d’une baleine grise! WoW ! Ça vaut la route d’une durée de 6 heures à partir de San José del Cabo). Nous sommes aussi allés sur le pacifique où nous avons aussi vu de près le plus gros animal de la planète : des baleines bleues.
Nous recommandons fortement à tous!

Cons:

Qu’il n’y ait pas de moustiquaire à la porte-patio. Nous aurions préféré dormir la porte patio ouverte plutôt qu’à l’air climatisée.
