Cool modern hotel. Front staff was great. Elevator worked inconsistently, so had to take stairs to third floor. Hard on my husband with joint replacements. Room are small but nice. Only one chair on the deck. Really loud on the street from cars blasting the stereo, and the top floor deck blasts music till about 9 pm. Good for parties but not so much for us old folks who turn in early. But a nice place overall.

During my stay, I unfortunately experienced food poisoning. When I approached the concierge for assistance in obtaining medication, I was told that I would have to wait until morning, as the hotel did not have any remedies or resources available to help.

We loved everything! All the workers were very nice and friendly. The hotel is in a perfect location with two beaches right in front, and several restaurants within walking distance. We also enjoyed the beach chairs they let you borrow, and the DJ rooftop set.

Great location and service

We checked in on thanksgiving and stayed for one night. The hotel was very busy. The staff were super helpful with check in, recommending restaurants around and places to snorkel. The hotel restaurant Placita has nice thanksgiving dinner which we booked ahead of time. The location of the hotel is very nice since it is right across the meeting point of Taino bio bay kayak tour. It is also close to a few restaurants with vegetarian options. Right across the hotel there's a place for renting golf carts and snorkelling gear as well. The hotel room is comfortable but the AC is always very cold even though we turn up the temperature already. There's no TV in the room. Rooftop is very nice, with a bar and a hot tub there. The checkout time is at noon, they allow us to store our luggage there for a few hours there, and when we come back they let us use the shower and lent us beach towels without charge before we head to the airport. Probably the best hotel in Esperanza and the most convenient if you're going to bio bay.

Beautiful property with some hick ups. Fan in room turned on by itself, mist likely caused by the neighboring rooms control. Was a bit scary as it sounded like it would fall off any minute. The bottle proved for guest was dirty and smelled like mould, the cups smelled of cigarette. Bed however was super comfortable. The roof very beautiful. We dined at the restaurant. During the reservation I was asked if we are celebrating a special occasion which I was celebrating my birthday. Not just did we have to wait for 30 minutes for the waiter to acknowledge us after being seated by the host but no mention of my birthday. Service was rather underwhelming considering how outstanding the food was.

It seems that it is family run and they protect each other, so no one can complain. The restaurant has a dress code... it's weird when you're on the beach and it's the only activity you can do... very weird, but uncomfortable.
