The property is on a natural hot spring so warm water is always available. The restaurant has very good food and speciality taco tuesdays and barBQ night Thursdays. They are in the process of renovating and upgrading the rooms but it is a very cute and quaint older resort that should keep its amazing feel but work in the need repairs to allow it to use all of its rooms and facilities.

Hidden Gem, tons of potential

The place has a ton of potential! Is it 5*, no. It is beautiful in its own accord, absolutely! They have some work to do and they are working on it. The pool is amazing! The hot tub is great (watch the filling times for heat dont get burnt!) The staff is top notch. Super friendly and helpful. They will go out of thier way to help if they can. The place has character, the parts that are operational are great. The forage is pretty, the property is small and cozy. The beach is vast and beautiful but they need come beach loungers. The food is excellent albiet a bit pricey. The beds are okay, if you like a hard bed you'll love it. The wifi is very slow! You'll need to rely on your cell data or go with out interent during your stay. An amazing location and although not perfetc, higly recommend, especially if you get a good price on the room.

Fabulous stay. The pool, hot tub, bathrooms and ocean, yes ocean, are all heated by natural hot springs. The ocean part is an experience. You walk to the waters edge, sit in the sand and dig a hole with your hands and feet about a foot deep and hot water comes up. Awesome. Dinner and breakfast fantastic. The property is older, everything else makes up for this charming friendly easy resort. Will return.

Staff were wonderful, the hot tub of mineral water was superb, the pool a bit chilly but delightful. Their taco Tuesday is not to be missed. And the beach is gorgeous and clean, with nice lounging furniture. The only odd note is the parts of the property that are in a state of decay— a convention center, another pool and hot tub that are decommissioned.

The hotel/property is right on a great stretch of beach. There’s not really anything else immediately around the property in terms of dining options or things to do, but Los Barilles is a short drive away. The restaurant on site is quite good. Overall, it’s a nice hotel and location for a quiet and relaxing beach vacation.
