Ok so overall I’d give our stay at Kontiki 8/10 ! High points are the resort is absolutely beautiful, the beaches are on site and they’re breathtaking. The restaurants and all were also very beautiful. Another thing I loved is the staff is very attentive, they write you on Whatsapp to check on you during the stay & they were flexible with our checkout. They lost a whole point from me because the Tropical Superior rooms are a bit underwhelming. The room is a bit outdated, TV was old and small, and there were a SWARM of ants in our shower and bathroom floor. That extra 1 point I deducted because it made my skin crawl a little bit. They did send cleaners to try & resolve it the next day, but they hadn’t cleaned it all, even thought it kept reoccurring, I still appreciated the effort from the concierge not so much the cleaners as they didn’t do much to fix it. So yes they definitely need a bit of renovation for the Tropical Superior room. Overall, it’s a really beautiful resort and island. Great employees ! I would stay here again for sure, just in a different unit.

Great property and great staff. Nice location on the mambo beach strip. It’s more of a fun/louder area, so as long as you’re ok with loud music like we are, you’ll be fine.

We had a wonderful stay at Kontiki. We stayed in the luxury suites and they were gorgeous! Carol, in housekeeping was so attentive and kind. Maud, who we had for beach service, was hard working and made sure I always had a Pina Colada in hand. All of the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and no ask was to much. Our only complaint was the noise. The luxury suites were in front of a club that had a dance party two of the four nights we were there. They promptly stop at midnight but it was really just too much. They provided ear plugs but they did little to drown the noise. Overall an amazing get away and if you’re into dancing the night away this is your place!

Amazing location & service. Very annoying that at 6:30-8 pm daily I couldn’t take a hot shower. For $800 a night I think the water heater should adequately allow for hot water for guests.

Lysander the Manager for the Luxury Suites was most accommodating and pleasant to work with…making my bday memorable! I WOULD advise to bring an outlet adapter AND MOSQUITO REPLELLENT, as the foliage and individual pool draws them.
