We had a lovely stay at the Kontiki. The staff was kind and helpful. We stayed in a superior room which had plenty of space and a nice balcony looking out at a pool. The beach had comfortable chaise and the ocean was a beautiful teal blue. I highly recommend staying here.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kontiki Beach Resort. The rooms are beautiful and our view was fantastic. We especially loved the little private plunge pool on the deck — it made the stay feel extra special. The beach area is very lively with great restaurants, beach clubs, and plenty of shopping nearby, so there is always something to do. Just be prepared for loud music on Wednesday nights due to the beach club events, but aside from that it was a wonderful stay and we would definitely come back.
