6.2/10

While Bahia del Sol has a fantastic beachfront location and spacious rooms, our overall experience left us wanting more in terms of service and dining quality. We faced issues with staff responsiveness and cleanliness, which didn't quite match the price we paid. However, the peaceful beach setting and potentially great activities are definite highlights.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious and overall clean, but could use some better lighting for a cozier feel. The kitchenette was handy for storing snacks, even though we didn't use it much.

Service

Service was inconsistent; while some staff members were friendly, many seemed disinterested and unresponsive to requests. We felt unacknowledged more often than not.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, which is right on the beach and offers a cozy atmosphere perfect for relaxation. The family suites are spacious, and the beach is clean and beautiful, making it a solid choice for an affordable getaway. However, the dining menu could use a bit more variety, and the noise from nearby clubs might not suit everyone. Overall, it's a great value for families.

5.0/10

I had a really disappointing experience at this hotel, especially considering I was celebrating an engagement. There were so many issues, from dirty rooms and stingy breakfast options to a serious lack of attention from the staff. The beach chairs were gross, and safety concerns were ignored. Overall, not worth the price I paid for what I expected to be a luxurious stay.
