    When we arrived in town we struggled to find the property. I called and messaged them so many times over 3 hours with no answer, we just had to go have lunch in town and wait for them to get back to us. Keep in mind, the hotel is slightly dated, however it’s very fairly priced with such an amazing view. I recommend parking by the visitors centre and walking up.

    The walk up to the hotel is really only 5 minutes it’s easy, and once you’re there, the view is spectacular!! We loved our stay here, it’s amazing for the price. Pool is also really nice, and there’s a filtered water machine with cold or hot drinking water.

    The bed has one of those plastic covers around the mattress, while this is sanitary, it’s uncomfortable especially with the heat. The pillows were also really uncomfortable and made me and my bf wake up with a stiff neck every morning. The bed was directly under the AC which also isn’t the most comfortable and healthy as it gave me an AC cold.

    We absolutely loved the view. Every day it was like waking up in paradise. Pool was a very comfortable temperature. Rooms were relatively simple, but we spent most days at the beach anyway so that was fine. Great value for money.

    Small bed and the bedding could have been more comfortable.

    Loved the view, the pool, our little balcony, and the overall vibe of the property. It is high up a hill so you do have to hike up and down - fine with me but not suitable for anyone with disabilities. The bed was a bit small for two people, but it was comfortable enough. Worth it for the views.

    The shower had no hot water. We had to pay for our stay onsite and not via booking.com. When we got there we were told that we'd need to pay an extra 5% to use a card and there are only 2 ATMs in Mazunte and they generally don't work. According to the Comisión Nacional para la Protección y Defensa de los Usuarios de Servicios Financieros (CONSUDEF), it is not permitted for vendors to charge any extra commission on card payments. When we confronted them about this, they told us that it does not apply to them since they're not using a bank. I checked with CONSUDEF and it does, in fact, apply to them.

    The views from our room were breathtaking and the accommodation was walking distance from the beach and the main areas of the town.

    Bit hard to find and it doesn’t say that if you’re driving in there’s a really steep road in so beware of that. Otherwise if you’re walking it’s located centrally but a walk up a hill to get there.

    Comfy bed, great balcony with a view and nice to have air con! The view is amazing and it’s nice to have a pool! Would stay again.

    The only drawback for some people would be the inconvenience of not having parking at the door. There is free parking at the tourist office at the bottom of the hill but then there’s a walk up a road and about 100 steps or more up to the property. Not recommended for anyone with suitcases but perfect for people who travel lightly (we had backpacks) and adventurers as this is a little oasis set above the town. We are in our late 60’s and had no issue with the climb.

    This hotel is obviously an ongoing labour of love, apparent by all the small details around the building. It has a wonderful cabana/terrace with beautiful sweeping views where you can relax in loungers or hammocks after a dip in the pool. Also the rooms all have balconies with views. Set up in the hills surrounded by nature.

    Nothing! If you need to borrow items from the kitchen you can ask, but there is a missed opportunity for a breakfast up on the balcony as there are great views and lots of furniture :)

    The view from the hotel is amazing (and well worth the few steps up there!). The pool was a great addition on a hot day and the staff are lovely, they cleaned our room everyday and made sure the refillable water was always topped up.

    No parking and a real climb to get there from main street......not for the faint of heart. I am 72 and was just getting over a respiratory virus.... thought my heart was going to explode going up

    No breakfast was included. Privacy and views were great..... and a nice small pool. David, the owner (?) was a good host..... along with his helper, Joshua.

    Lots of bugs and did not get fresh sheets when requested—the bed was just re-made with the same dirty sheets.

    The view is breathtaking. The guy running the place is very kind. This will be a gorgeous place when done.

    Amazing value for money. Super clean and comfortable room with working AC and hot shower. Lots of comfortable areas to chill with stunning views over Mazunte and the ocean. Access to fridge to keep drinks cool was a bonus and cooled drinking water also available. I would definitely stay here again.

    Our room had no balcony, but others have one, so next time we will ask for a balcony.

    The hotel is on top of a hill. The view is spectacular. It's 100 steps to get there. We had no problem to get there and we are in our 70ties. Nice pool and deck.
