10/10 Excellent

"Excelente"

El Mambo Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is THEE most beautifully put together, uniquely decorated, stunning hotel my husband and I have ever stayed at. I still can’t get over it, I felt like I was living in a dream the whole time I was there. The staff are SO kind and helpful, I only got a few names, Mica, Ambar, & Tamara. The owner is super cool, he knows a lot about design and fitness - you can tell that he loves what he does. There is a rooftop pool AND gym - I’m not sure how none of these reviews have talked about the gym because it is incredible, the view is amazing and the equipment is very, very good quality. When you’re here, walk across the street to the beach and take a right. Keep walking until you hit Punta Poppy beach, and then walk a little further. I have never been to a more beautiful, empty beach in my life. It looks like it never ends, it goes and goes - and it is all swimmable (watch for the waves once you pass the point, though). I will never stop raving about this hotel. We were here for 3 nights of our honeymoon, but wish we had stayed longer."
