Our room was great, but some amenities could be improved upon like having a coffee maker, clothing iron, and blow dryer inside the room. The staff was great, however having more personnel on site would make the manager’s job a lot more simpler. The hotel restaurant was also overpriced for the quality of food received.

Hotel is location is perfect, with beech front access, with plenty of bars & restaurants within walking distance. Room was good with a very cold plunge pool & separate seating area to relax. Unfortunately due to shortage of staff, bars located by pools were not open, therefore no ability to get drinks or food there which was a bit disappointing. The hotel is looking a bit tired & could do with some areas being upgraded to bring it back to a high standard.

Overall I was very disappointed with my stay here. The coffee service that was advertised didn’t show up unless you complained. The facilities on the beach and rooftop were unkept and messy. Most chairs were ripped and falling apart and the rooftop was upside down. There were broken string lights lying around and the pools were filled with debris. I booked with the understanding that breakfast was included but was told that it was a separate option you had to pay extra for which was not advertised. Both the restaurants were very overpriced.

Absolute fantastic time here. Pictures don’t do this place justice. Was here for 5 days for my girlfriend’s birthday and we didn’t want to leave. From the outdoor showers, to the orange cat that was out and about. Our little treehouse room was so romantic. Would recommend 10 times over. We’ll be back soon.

Hotelito Azul was such a beautiful, zen experience — very natural, earthy, and tranquil. The food is organic and incredibly fresh, and the entire property has this unique, elevated “treehouse” feel with nature views everywhere you turn. You honestly barely need shoes; there are foot baths outside every suite, which feels so intentional and relaxing. The location is perfect — close to all the great beach clubs and local attractions, and only about a 15–20 minute walk to Ven a la Luz. The blacked tacos at Olivia? Phenomenal. So fresh. Truly, all the food on-site is fantastic and aligned with the whole organic vibe. Customer service was extremely friendly, pleasant, and multilingual — there were absolutely no English language barriers, which made the stay even smoother and more enjoyable. The only recommendations I’d offer: check-in communication could be improved. I didn’t receive my check-in details until after I arrived, and you need a QR code to scan when entering the property. Without that code, you can’t get in, so someone should be monitoring the entrance at all times. We ended up waiting about 20 minutes, but it looks like they were installing a Ring system during my stay, so this will likely be resolved soon. Outside of that, the experience was amazing. The grounds are clean, safe, and truly one of the best beachfront stays in the area. And the rooftop? Spectacular. The sunsets from up there are breathtaking…we sat there every evening just to take it all in.

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Azulito. The property is perfectly located right on a beautiful beach, which made our time there even more enjoyable. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay. First, we want to mention Samantha, the manager. She was amazing — she made reservations for us, gave us great recommendations, and made sure everything about our stay went smoothly. A special thank-you also goes to Griselda from housekeeping. She kept our room spotless and made sure we had everything we needed at all times. She, along with the rest of the team, went above and beyond to accommodate all of our requests. We also want to recognize Gregorio, our butler, who was fantastic and always ready to help with anything we needed. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and very well maintained. The food at the hotel restaurant was also excellent. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily return.

We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. Our room was fantastic. Spacious, clean, elegantly furnished and with a large terrace and fantastic views. But unfortunately, that is where the good things end. The host was quite pre-occupied. The “on-site” parking was certainly only about 500 feet away from the hotel but required crossing a road with heavy traffic. At night, when the road gets pitch-black, the short walk felt dangerous with the risk of being run over. The gate to the parking lot was always locked. Returning to the hotel at night, it took us 10-20 minutes to find someone at the hotel to open the gate for us every single time. The gym, advertised as “world class”, was decent but got extremely hot as it lacked AC . You also need to give the hotel a notice at least one hour in advance to use the gym. The hotel restaurant, bars and coffee shop are over-priced. I ordered a latte at the restaurant. By the time it came, it was cold. At 8 USD price tag, I felt ripped off. And the beverage credit we were offered at the check-in was for one specific bar which we never saw open during our 5-day stay. We felt like we were paying luxury hotel prices for a hotel where the overall experience was far from luxurious.

The service is the best part of this resort. From the servers, to housekeeping to Samantha at the front desk, everyone is attentive and super nice. The beach is gorgeous and most of the rooms are nice (some are a bit basic but also cheaper). Location is great. Entrance is a bit iffy and is easy to miss.

We were given a room which did not reflect the price or features of the room which we intended to book. At the time of check-in, Samantha, the manager of Hotelito Azul, admitted that the room's description on the website did not match the actual room, and admitted that she would have to make adjustments on the website. We asked if another room was available, and were told no. Not wanting to cause problems, we accepted the room as-is and assumed that we would be able to receive a rebate at the time of check out. At check-out time, besides ignoring us for hours as we tried to reach her, Samantha became aggravated by our desire to rectify the problem, and made several points which were not true: namely that she offered us a different room (she did not), and that the greenery, which was obstructing the ocean view, had been trimmed. This also had not occurred, as could easily be seen by anyone who inspected the room. We tried reaching out to the hotel directly, and were met with a hostile, confrontational attitude by someone who claimed that they would report us to the authorities for fraud, as if we were trying to defraud the hotel in some way. In the meantime, they have changed the room details on their website. We have screen shots of the before and after. Of note: the manager of the hospitality department met us personally as we were on our way out and expressed his deep sympathies with our plight. It seemed as if he was aware that we had been given poor treatment.

Let’s start by saying that the staff at the 2 restaurants were delightful, engaging and hospitable. Our room was lovely- if a bit rustic- but had a gorgeous view. The shower is cool, bed was comfy, perfect pillows. Lots of fresh water provided. Only bummer was the thatched roof leaked (kind of significantly) during a particularly strong rainstorm. Now for the rest: we came in the offseason- and it was VERY apparent. Hotel ran out of clean beach towels, food prices were exorbitant (walk down the beach to the more elevated hotel, Amansala, and pay 1/2 the price), had a significant credit for drinks but there were so many restrictions we had virtually no choices, concierge was not to be found, reception was rarely onsite with spotty communication- you get the picture. The most egregious factor, though, was the rooftop “pavilion”. Though the view is amazing- it is clear that it has been abandoned for years. Broken chairs, janky ladder to (amazing) infinity pool, general disrepair. All told, the Hotelito Azul is a little gem. The vegetation is incredible, the vibe is on point, and it feels rustic, yet inviting. But they need to step it up in order to compete with the plethora of choices on this beach alone that offer updated accommodations and amenities. Or at least deliver what they promised.

We had a wonderful stay. The location is amazing. The beach and the view from our room was breathtaking. We saw the sunrise from our bed every morning. The staff was excellent. Especially, Cayitano our beach attendant and waiter. He was there to assist us whenever we needed anything and was so friendly. He was top notch! He made us feel like family. Other staff members were also very nice in helpful.
