Beautiful boutique resort with excellent food, but room for improvement in handling guest issues by management
Pros:

- Resort styling
- Spacious, clean and comfortable rooms
- Excellent food at Ai Mamita
- Friendly and helpful staff, especially reception and luggage assistance

Cons:

- We experienced noticeable staining/discolouration of swimwear after pool use (likely due to a seasonal / temporary issue)
- Management ultimately provided a fair resolution to our issue at checkout
- Resolution process however felt unnecessarily drawn out over several days, reactive and without opportunity for direct (verbal/face to face) contact with management.
- A more personal, proactive and guest-focused approach to resolving issues would be more in line with the standards expected at this price point

Sehr schön im Allgemeinen jedoch für den Preis in meinen Augen zu teuer - dafür hätte alles perfekt sein sollen
Pros:

Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit Outdoor-Dusche, der Pool war großartig, die Anlage im Allgemeinen sehr schön. Die Mitarbeiter waren äußerst freundlich und hilfsbereit

Cons:

Im Restaurant waren mehrere Speisen, die wir konsumieren wollten nicht verfügbar.
Manche der Fahrräder die man kostenlos leihen konnten sind in sehr schlechtem Zustand (keine Hinterbremse und vorne nur schwache Bremse bzw Kette nicht geölt was das Schalten der Gänge unmöglich machte).
Es waren winzige Käfer im Bett die nur Nachts zu sehen waren. Dadurch wachte ich mehrmals auf. Laut ChatGBT waren es Staublaus/Bücherlaus (nicht gefährlich für Menschen) sowie eine kleine Kakerlake hab ich erschlagen.
Die in den Pool kackeneden Vögel waren auch irgendwie unschön anzusehen speziell dann darin zu schwimmen.

Pros:

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, sehr gutes Essen und ein richtig schöner Pool. Es stehen Fahrräder zur Verfügung, mit welchen man innerhalb von wenigen Minuten am Strand ist. Der Service war sehr aufmerksam, auch wenn das Englisch zum Teil eingeschränkt war. Die Zimmer waren sauber.

Fantastique endroit à Catalina
Pros:

Très confortable et calme, personnelle adorable et super emplacement.

Cons:

Parking non géré par le personnel donc les touristes se parque vraiment n’importe comment, c’est hallucinant… x1 voiture occupe x2 places… voir plus …

Un parisien fou a réveillé tout l’hôtel à 06h00 du matin en criant au feu et en toquant comme un forcené sur les portes des bungalow… car … il ne savait pas que les locaux font des feus de sécurité et des feus pour brûler leurs déchets.

Donc si vous voyez des petites flammes en bas de la grande propriété, c’est totalement normal !
Surtout qu’ils le font uniquement quand le vent souffle à l’opposé de l’hôtel , ils sont très sérieux et respectueux.

- impossible de régler la climatisation, elles sont bloqué sur un seul paramètre pour des raisons pratique et écologique … une climatisation écologique…
