Great amenities, pool, gym, massage, right on the beach. This is right in the heart of 5th Avenue in PDC so it's very busy and open all night.

This property was gorgeous and perfect if you want the space a hotel can not offer. We loved this place and would definitely go back. If you are into the night life it is the perfect location as you are walking distance to the bars, but if you are looking for a quiet night this might not be the best option because the music from the bars can be heard at a distance. Parking is not included, but is affordable and in a parking garage where your car is safe.

I visited this hotel when friends stayed there. The GIANT infinity pool overlooked the ocean and was sublime to swim and float in. It's so big you don't have to worry about swimmers into someone. The condo I stayed in was LUXURIOUS, with 2 full bathrooms.

Nice location and great pool but no restaurant on bar on premises. Lots of noise from nearby clubs but fairly soundproof inside. Great cooking facilities but no basic supplies like salt/pepper, oil, sugar etc. Comfortable bed and furnishings. Lots of day noise from pumper trucks etc. Not clear what cleaning policy was only got cleaned once on second day. One other day maid showed up at 9:30am but we were still in bed but never came back. Overall a great place.

Nice place but the club noise was a downside.
This particular room unfortunately has a balcony facing directly towards the noise of the nightclubs making it completely unusable. Ruining the rest of the experience completely. Room was clean and nice. Pool etc was nice. 1 of the elevators was out for our entire stay. More of a nuisance than anything. Also the patio door latch was broken and every time we closed the front door it would pop open.

Perfect location just by the beach and very close to Quinta Avenida. Nice pool with a shallower part perfect for kids. Everything was clean. Drinking water was included. The only thing I can comment on was the air conditioner was a bit loud. Definitely recommend going there.
