Desagradable la estancia

Para empezar dijeron q no había pasado el pago y q no podían hacer nada porq las de contabilidad entraban el martes a trabajar, y pues me cobraron el uso de tarjeta de crédito, el club de playa una desepcion, sucia la playa, con olor desagradable, no hay interés por la limpieza, sencillamente, no les recomiendo el hotel por nada del mundo. Por 1800 pesos preferente otras opciones. El cuarto no tenía tele, no tenía potencia la agua de la regadera, solo te dan una sábana de cobija, muy desagradable la estancia en el hotel arenas, elijan otra opción.

Comprendo que la naturaleza es impredecible, pero no han limpiado en días la acumulación del sargazo y el olor era insoportable, no pudimos usar los camastros de playa por el olor tan desagradable. Y lo poco que limpiaron de sargazo lo tiraron en la parte de atrás del estasionamiento y por lo tanto no se puede usar el aire acondicionado porque se mete el olor característico de sargazo podrido. La piscina estaba sucia y no se puede usar.

Pros: right at the beach that is beautiful, offer lots of services such as kayaks, bikes and tours; friendly staff; amazing view from the balcony. Cons: don’t have nets that stop mosquitoes from entering through the balcony. Once you spray insecticide, all of them fall on the bed and the floor. There were also roaches.

ASQUEROSO

El hotel es un asco, sucio, descuidado y viejo. En el primer cuarto que me dieron habia miles de mosquitos adentro, imposible dormir en un lugar asi y al cuarto que me cambiaron tenia una cucaracha, un lugar asqueroso. El servicio es bastante regular. el internet no funciono ni un minuto. La regadera tira dos gotas de agua y el jabon es rosa venus como de motel barato. No volveria ni gratis. Las fotos son un absoluto engaño

Me encantó la ubicación del hotel, está justo frente al mar; solo te divide una mini calle pero prácticamente tiene la playa enfrente. El hotel tiene camastros, hamacas en el agua y columpios. Realmente es un espacio muy cómodo, casi teníamos la zona para nosotros solos. Te prestan Kayaks sin costo y la playa es muy tranquila. La vista hacia el mar es muy bonita desde las habitaciones. Tiene alberca pequeña pero a gusto, solo que en la tarde hay muchos muchos muchos moscos, de requiere un repelente si o si.

El personal es muy amable, sin embargo, las instalaciones ya están muy descuidadas. La ubicación tiene mucho potencial pero si no le dan el debido mantenimiento, pronto, en un par de años, el hotel se caerá a pedazos.

La ubicación del hotel es perfecta, está alejada del centro (5min), no hay ruido, poca gente. La atención del personal es excelente, te ayudan en todo momento. Los precios son accesibles, los kayaks son gratuitos. Quizá debería de haber más opciones en el menú.

If they did some maintenance it would be my favor-

Lovely location, it was a really nice place at one time but there has been virtually no maintenance. Way beyond shabby chic. Too bad too, staff is very friendly and helpful, lovely beach. If they did some upkeep it could be my favorite place to stay.

Bord de mer

Bord de mer. Le dernier hotel de la route goudronnée, donc un peu à l'écart pour aller vers le "centre" (800 mètres environ ?). Prêt gratuit d'une sort de kayak, avec gilet de sauvetage. On a essayé à 2 pour aller voir des poissons. Mais pas trop vu, seulement quelques uns, à cause des sargasses (herbes). D'après la personne à l'accueil, il doit y avoir des tortues, vers la barre de corail, mais c'est loin. Heureusement que le courant nous ramenait vers le rivage.
