Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, with functioning AC, WiFi, and hot water showers. The service was excellent, offering car hire and tours assistance. The location was superb, close to town yet peaceful. The dining options nearby were convenient. The pool area was lovely and provided a shaded spot to relax.
I couldn't have asked for a better location than El Jardin. It's just a few hundred meters from the beach, restaurants, and activities, making it super convenient. The rooms were good-sized, clean, and exactly as advertised, which was a major plus. The service was top-notch, and the location was superb, close to everything you need to spend the hot hours of the day. However, the dining experience lacked a few essentials like a coffee maker in the room, which was a bit disappointing. On the upside, the view off the balcony was fantastic, and the pool area was also very nice.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, while comfortable, faced the street, leading to some unavoidable street noise that bothered me as a light sleeper. The Jacuzzi was not working, but it was still pleasant to relax in. The outdoor balcony with a hammock provided a nice view of the town but was commonly used as a path by other guests. The location was a standout feature, very convenient for exploring the town, although unnecessary given the proximity to the beach. The dining experience was enjoyable, with entertaining options for lunch, although the food selection was limited. Despite these aspects, the hotel offered good value for money overall.
