Costa Bonita Resorts
It’s a beautiful place to stay right by the beach. The only bad thing is that this place doesn’t clean the room so if your staying for a few days be prepared to clean your room.

This place was great! The staff was super friendly, and everything you need is inside the hotel—different types of restaurants, a bar, pool tables, and lots of pools. Definitely staying here again!
