It's very cheap compared to the other options in Palomino. The food portions and cocktails are very generous. The girl at reception and the chef (who spoke a little bit of English) were nice. Can walk to the beach but a long walk to restaurants.

Great location slightly off the main strip which is quieter but still close. Lovely pool area to hang out in, nice fruit juices and friendly staff.

“Nice place, rude recepcionist!”
The receptionist was really rude. They didn't bother to tell me their card reader wasn't working, so I couldn't pay with my card. I didn't want to hand over my cash, but they suggested using Paypal instead. This dragged out my check-in, making me late for a class. I offered to pay half and get more cash, but they kept going to the owner for approval. Eventually, they agreed. But the next day, when I asked about the Paypal payment, they wouldn't even tell me the exchange rate. And to top it off, the receptionist said I should handle it for them and that I had an attitude. To the owner, please train your team properly and remind them they are in a service business the client doesn´t serve them.

“Pretty garden and pool but everything needs maintenance!”
The pool is really nice and the garden is very pretty. The location is also nice, 5min from the beach and 2 streets away from the Main Street, which makes the location quiet enough but close by parties and restaurants.
