"Food is very limited and not well cooked Drinks are very limited The property is nice and the location Access to the beach and swimming pools areas are very convenient. Staff and security is good."

"Staff is extremely helpful. Common areas are overcrowded. Room was not ready. Food is good."

"Overall the staff is nice and helpful however, the proterty is a little out of date and could use some renovations. Our original room had some sort of water leaks and we were promtply moved into another room but that room did have a mild mildew smell. "

"Beach area pool area restaurant ok but getting old. non potable salty water is never a plus. "

"Parking was ok staff was great restaurant was good ! The only this is they need to update on the shower heads and restrooms and need a microwave and update on stove very old "

"Pool was great, staff goes above and beyond to meet your needs. Beach Las Flores is a 3 min walk away."

"The facilities are new & have a very nice modern feel. However, the rooms are lacking because there is no mini fridge, no chairs, no table, no hangers to hang clothes & no iron for those of us who would like to iron our own clothing. The pools are a little weird because they have these huge planters in the middle of them which really don’t allow for you to swim freely. Another issue I have is that the big pool side beds that provide shade and relaxation get taken by the people who pay for day passes and not the people who actually pay to stay at the resort overnight. The breakfast was just OK. They only had scrambled eggs with pork sausage in them and I don’t eat pork, and when I requested to have another type of egg, the lady told me to eat pancakes . Finally, a gentleman said that they could make eggs for us on the side, but my husband was told that all he could get was 2 eggs. It’s a buffet style, but it’s not an all you can eat buffet. Don’t get me wrong, we don’t eat a lot, but we felt that they were very stingy with the portions. The property is on the bay side, so in order to get to the beach you have to walk through Bahia del Sol Resort. We thought that it would be nice because it’s supposed to be a prestigious resort, but it was really a hot mess. It was dirty & it was overcrowded with a lot of drunk people. Overall Astra is a nice place to relax & the food from the main restaurant for lunch and dinner is gourmet & excellent. They just need to improve a few things"

"My experience was not what I expected. I stayed for four days, and during that time, no one cleaned the room. The bathroom smelled like sewage from the moment we arrived. The food prices were extremely high; a bottle of water cost $2.77 when a store across the street sold it for $1. I definitely would not stay at that place again."

"Beautiful place the view is gorgeous, to get to the beach if you don’t mind stairs or do not have problems with health there is a stair case with 188 steps to go down and back up but the beach is worth it,the rooms need attention they are run down food is ok, I had better."
