The hotel is set in a wonderful location right on the beach, offering a peaceful retreat away from the bustle of Montanita town. The rooms were spacious but lacked some essential amenities, like a telephone and a table, with a bed that was overly firm and a subpar bathroom. While the service was notably friendly and helpful, the lack of basic room amenities was a drawback.
