We enjoyed our 1 week stay. The property was clean, staff were friendly and helpful. The pool was nice, but wish there were more loungers. The breakfast was tasty and nice selection. We had the king suite and liked our room but the bed was a bit too firm for our liking. Good air conditioning in our room overall happy with the hotel.

I booked this property online from Canada for 4 days thinking I would look around for a place to stay for a month when I arrived. I quickly noticed how nice the resort and staff were but after my 4 days I had to relocate as the property was full. The manager Gerardo was fantastic and he put in time on his own accord to find me a suitable property to relocate to. I highly recommend this property, it has everything you need and you get the best value here. It’s just simply a lovely resort and is so close to the beach. Don’t do as I did, only booking for 4 days, book your whole vacation at the Caracol!!

Great beach access and excellent water pressure. However, during the holiday season, we found the price too high for what was offered. The beds were really uncomfortable and caused back pain for us. Disappointingly, there were no beach towels provided, but they had towels for the pool, which we weren't allowed to take it to the beach....
