    Beautiful hotel, nice beach, excellent service. Breakfast is spectacular, with both Colombian and internacional dishes. Ideal for a 3 to 4 night stay, as they only have 3 restaurants available for dinner. The gym and Spa are very well equiped....

    It was perfect for me to chill, reading books by the beach, eat yummy food, working out at the gym, getting a massage at the spa. I was spoiled by the staff, they were very candid and helpful.
