    friendly service
    delicious food

    cut to the chase, here’s my take

    Nestled right on a stunning black sand beach, this charming spot offers friendly service and delicious food. With clean, comfortable rooms and great BBQ nights, it really feels like a retreat. The beach is perfect for walks, and the local area is vibrant with cafés and activities. A true gem for relaxation.

    charming atmosphere
    friendly staff
    cold pool
    limited loungers
    menu options

    A beautiful spot with a charming atmosphere right on the beach. The friendly staff goes the extra mile, making everything delightful, from the refreshing small pool to the deliciously prepared food. However, securing a beach lounger can be a challenge for late risers, as they fill up quickly. Additionally, the pool temperature could be warmer for a more comfortable swim experience.

    A Wonderful Family Getaway!

    Our family had an incredible stay! The friendly staff made us feel right at home, especially during breakfast. Enjoying fresh fruit and delicious local dishes while overlooking the beach was unforgettable. Pro tip, request a beach-facing room to avoid street noise, and don’t miss their afternoon snacks!

    friendly service
    relaxing atmosphere
    loud rain

    From the moment we checked in, it felt like a home away from home, especially when Gabby greeted us so warmly! We enjoyed lounging by the beach access and relaxing in the outdoor swimming pool. Just a heads up, we had one day of heavy rain that made it hard to hear each other inside, but it didn't ruin our fun at all! 🌊

    The beach is just steps away from the hotel.

    Some of the rooms feel old and have cramped bathrooms.

    my stay at the hotel was amazing, just like my previous trip to playa hermosa. the beachfront location and friendly staff exceeded my expectations. clean rooms and delicious food made it a perfect romantic getaway.

    the pool could use some cleaning.

    stunning sunsets
    cozy room
    unpredictable hot water

    The sunsets here were absolutely stunning! Our room was cozy, and we walked straight onto the beach, which was a dream come true for the kiddos.

    Hot water was about as predictable as a cat on a hot tin roof, and the wifi decided to play hide and seek. Not ideal for my Insta stories!

    Request a room on the upper floors to avoid noise from the metal staircase. it can be quite disruptive.

    The staff were incredibly friendly and

    attentive throughout our stay, which really made the experience special. The room was clean and comfortable, though we had some trouble with the shower pressure. Overall, a pleasant stay with great beach access.

    howler monkeys
    sunset

    It was just a fitting option for a short-term stay in Playa Hermosa with reasonable value. We got to see a group of howler monkeys looking for food in the trees on the beach, which was unexpected and fun. Bring some beach chairs to enjoy the sunset more comfortably.

    noise concerns

    great service but rooms need better soundproofing

    The personal touch from Gabby at the front desk made us feel right at home. The room was beautifully decorated, modern, and exceptionally clean.

    The lack of soundproofing in the rooms made it difficult to enjoy complete privacy at times.
