the location was perfect, helpful staff, and a very good breakfast (surfers one particularly good). room was huge.
not because of the cost but breakfast should include a free juice. spoils an otherwise tasty breakfast. rooms at the front noisy because if the clubs. despite we had pay for a sea view we decided to move to the back of the building to sleep better. toilet and shower room need some work to modernise. lack of providing shampoo.

The staff was so great. Very helpful and friendly. Great location and amazing views from our top floor room. The on site restaurant had a wonderful breakfast and we ate there almost every day.
The big dance club across the street was super loud and they stay open pretty late. I didn’t mind so much but others would probably find it frustrating if they tried to sleep.

Location, internet, restaurant and breakfast, pools. I asked to change my room because of the noise and the staff tried hard to help me. ATM in hotel.
Needed more staff on at reception. Some very noisy guests and screaming children. Noisy if have street-side room, but that's the same with all places in Zicatela. Was a little hard to find at first because just looks like a restaurant and the name of the hotel is not at street level. It's not really "bungalows", more like a hotel complex.

The room was exceptionally clean. It was big enough for a couple and beds were comfy. The pool area was good and was never crowded. The restaurant food is very good compared to some restaurants I tried there and cheap. I loved everything about Puerto Escondido. Please have in mind that this is a very relax town and it’s not about luxury. If you want to relax and not see many people around you should go to Bacocho beach. I was in room 24 and barely heard the music and noise from outside. I really liked the hotel and staff. Definitely coming back. Also, the beach is literally 2 mins away walking and it’s stunning especially sunset time.
The only thing had my wife and I a bit worried was the room door since it had poor security. The only security was locking the door with the key and the hotel entrance is always open. However, the whole time I was there, everything was very quite and peaceful even though is right in front of clubs and restaurants. Nothing creepy happened and you always have hotel staff by the entrance

Regarding breakfast: Generous, tasty and enjoyable in front of the beach. Location: With no doubt it was the best choice for us when booking. The main pool is nice, but some maintenance needed.
The second pool (the one with the small cascade) needs some more cleanless. Perhaps more chloride. The front doors of rooms would look nicer with some new white painting maintenance....

Well-run hotel with clean and simple rooms. The pool area is attractive and there's a bit of variety for families. The welcome drink on arrival was a nice touch. Excellent breakfast options. Right opposite Zicatela Beach and near some of the best beachfront dining options.
Our triple room was right next to the facilities area which let down the vibe. While clean and well-run, the property is a bit more shabby than we were expecting. Think surfie/casual rather than resort. Curtains were thin - we prefer blackout blinds.

Great central location, very good breakfast included, helpful staff, relaxing vibe, pool/beach towels provided. Hotel restaurant food is good and affordable for families.
The beds could be updated, not very comfortable, but otherwise, great stay. Primarily young adults at night on the Zica party strip very late and loud music. Especially loud in front rooms facing Ocean ironically. Families traveling with young adults, like our two boys, they loved it! Just bring ear plugs, you'll be fine or ask for a room away from street.

This hotel is amazingly located in front of Zicatela Beach and close to all possible restaurants. Rooms are nice and have AC in them which is a PLUS considering how hot it is. The pools are amazing and the couches and chairs around are plenty. I had no noise complaints to give but I did travel and stay during the week and not weekend. The staff are super accommodating with whatever you need and try to help you as much as possible even with the simplest or things. The breakfast included in the restaurant up front by the beach has amazing views and is a must as they do have 3 different restaurants owned by them so you do get options! The breakfast is greatly portioned and well worth it for it to be included in price. Overall I had an amazing time here and will definitely be going back in the future. Only 12min from the airport too by taxi!

The staff especially Carolina very helpful with her English! The maintenence staff took awhile to get to you but they are def busy and hey who needs a TV on vacation anyway! The construction next door is a little annoying for sure but if you can appreciate everyone has to eat, you can't be mad at them. Wish breakfast started earlier but hey things are just getting back to normal as fishing and other tours start at 7 and the included(very tasty) breakfast isn't till 8 am. So missed it a couple times. All in all a great place to stay if you don't mind people having a good time all night at the bar accross the street or if you don't mind banging and hotel building at 7amish till 10pmish, they are the concrete crew soon to be finished soon I hope.
Maintenance of some things in the room could be better. Like I said an earlier breakfast would also be great. And the room needs more outlets!
