Our stay at this hotel had some ups and downs. The beach was beautiful, and the location was great for relaxation. Unfortunately, the service wasn't up to par, with issues like lengthy breakfast waits and staff seeming unmotivated. The amenities were lacking, and the overall upkeep of the hotel left much to be desired, which made it hard to justify the price we paid.

We had an amazing time at this hotel, especially during our family trip. The activities were endless, from fishing and interacting with dolphins to enjoying delicious meals right by the beach. The peaceful atmosphere was perfect for relaxation, although I did notice some areas needing a bit of attention, especially considering the price. Overall, we loved our stay and would recommend at least a two-day visit to soak it all in.

My experience at this hotel had its highs and lows. The beach is simply beautiful, and the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. However, the rooms are quite rundown, and the absence of balconies really detracted from my stay. Plus, for the price I paid, I expected much better quality.
Rooms

The rooms were in pretty rough shape and lacked any balconies, which was a major issue. Walking by the glass sliding doors and not being able to keep the curtains open was quite uncomfortable.

My stay was disappointing, especially for the price I paid. The staff seemed indifferent and the room left much to be desired. While the beach access was convenient, the noise from passing vehicles made it hard to relax. Breakfast was decent, but overall, I wouldn't recommend this place due to the poor service and inadequate facilities.
Rooms

The room was cramped and poorly maintained, lacking essential amenities like a closet and nightstands. It felt more like a budget hotel rather than one charging premium rates.

Our stay at Mar y Oro Hotel was absolutely wonderful! The location is unbeatable, right on a stunning beach with beautiful views of the blue and turquoise waters. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our experience even better. However, the hotel could use some improvements, especially in terms of certain facilities and dining options. Overall, it was a delightful getaway, and we'd definitely consider returning.

We stayed in a king room with a sea view which was spotlessly clean, spacious, and nicely appointed. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities like the fridge and digital safe came in handy.

While the restaurant had excellent service, I found the food to be a bit of a mixed bag. The chef did accommodate our vegan dietary needs, which was great, but some dishes could be improved.

The beach area was well-equipped with loungers and umbrellas, but there were some minor upkeep issues around the hotel grounds that need attention.
