The most beautiful resort I’ve stayed at yet! I loved how calm and peaceful the whole vibe was. Went here with my husband, and was so sad to leave. Highly recommend!

Fabulous resort. Did two days. Pool and restaurant were great . Room was even better with two floors and rooftop jacuzzi . Staff were attentive and very nice . Highly recommend 2-3 days or at least a day trip .

Nice facilities!

The facilities are amazing! What made me happy, was to see that the hotel and employes take care of the dogs of the island. I hope they have a program to castrate the female, so they keep healthy. It was joyfull to have them with us! Amazing pool, restaurant and the rooms are also super cosy with nice furniture.

property and our room were perfect..however the service is very very slow
stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall, it’s a beautiful property. Within a couple hours of arriving, we were already considering extending our stay… that is, until we took a shower. One min of scalding water followed by 5 mins of cold, rinse and repeat (no pun intended). Maintenance just said that’s the way it is. On the plus side, Alejandro (a manager I believe) was very proactive in offering to compensate us by offering us spa treatments. Overall we enjoyed our stay- and had the shower worked properly, we would have really enjoyed it. It’s just if you’re paying $450+ a night for a room, a shower works properly is a must.

2/10 Poor

Not only that the ac and wifi for my villa werent working, i had at all times people inside my rooms fixing these issues, on top of that the property staff offered some discount if i ever wanted to come Back and alejandro didnt get back to me with necessary info to re book. I want my money back
Hasay, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel is nice, clean and safe, they would benefit from a gym and getting wifi to work on the roof of the premium rooms (where the jacuzzi and outdoor areas are). Unfortunately dining, customer service & management is lacking. Every single day the hotel ran out of food and drinks. The staff did nothing to resolve issues, rather just walked away quickly, made excuses or stood there saying nothing. During our stay the hotel ran out of STILL WATER, Coke Zero, pizza bases, ham, beef, deserts, other ingredients in cocktails on their menu. These problems happened EVERY day and eventually we met with the quality service manager, who did give us a free dinner, which was appreciated, however he just made more excuses rather than solving issues. Apparently it is the “hotel’s” fault, not any individual… One day we ordered our own food and drink from Cartagena for delivery, which proves getting supplies isn’t that hard, but nobody at the hotel was able to make this happen. Boats run every hour from Cartagena and staff on both sides? We ordered a drink off their menu only for staff to come back 20 minutes later and say they don’t have all the ingredients, then walk away without offering an alternative. We would come back if they got fixed these issues, but with an experience like this, if these issues aren’t resolved, we’d prefer to go back to Punta Faro on Mucura instead of come back here. Facility is luxury but service is far from it. Fix the problems and we would return.

10/10 Exceptional

This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The place is brand new, cozy and modern. The facilities were outstanding! It is as good of a stay as any luxury chain resort. Getting there was easy enough since they provide their own Makani transportation, 18 min later we were welcomed at the property with a very cold beverage. We were upgraded on the pool chairs since the place was not busy and our room wasn’t ready We stayed with kids and they loved it! We were able to snorkel on their beach. Kids wished we stayed there for the entire vacation. My daughter got sick the night before we got there (too much sun exposure, I think since she got better right away) and the staff sent the property nurse. Everyone knew she was sick and offered to bring her tea/water/medicine etc. Even at night, the staff told me the guard of the property knew and will help in the worst case scenario, to take my daughter to Emergencies. Thankfully she felt better the next day and was snorkeling with dad all day Everyone knew my name and welcomed me (by my name) every time I got a drink or food. We came during the weekday and it wasn’t crowded at all! There are no vendors hustling on the beach, (anywhere you go in the beach, people will try to sell you things, be careful) However none of this happened on this resort. Relaxing here was amazing (no one was in sight) The price per night was expensive, but if you pay for the day or 2 to come here, then staying the night is worth it especially if you are here

Peaceful Retreat

An amazing peaceful resort that reminded me of my stays on small islands in Fiji without the 14 hour flight. Communication from hotel is great. They tell you to meet at a tent on the beach and helpful boat staff take care of all luggage. Some mention the boat ride is rough, but for us both directions was a pleasant ride. Staff greet you upon arrival at island. Check in was easy and fast. We staying in the villa that overlooks the water. Private pool is clean and everything in room is perfect. Important to know that this resort is a day club. Stayed 3 nights and generally about 10-20 people come from 11-5. Before 11 and after 5 we had the entire resort to ourselves or would see at most 4 other guests. Food in restuarant was excellent. There are 6 dogs they live on property. If you hate dogs the staff will chase them away, but we were the opposite and they are super cute. One spent the night with us and kids will enjoy the small friendly dogs. Read the fine print about where your lounge chairs will be. As a hotel guest, you are below the pool, in front of a wall before the beach because the pool chairs are for day club guests. 3 of 4 days we were given great spots at the pool and only 1 day placed on the sand. Service is excellent, but almost no English if you care about that. Overall; incredible room and property. Alone at restaurant for breakfast, nice people come for the day and then deserted late afternoon once again.
