Frommer's Review

This popular, two-story hotel on Playa Norte has simple, comfortable rooms and well-tended beach grounds. Rooms are in three sections; some face the beach, and others are across the street in a garden setting with a swimming pool. The large rooms contain a king-size or two double beds, a seating area, folk-art decorations, and a terrace or balcony with hammocks. Master suites have additional amenities, including small pools with hydromassage. The older section is well kept and surrounds a peaceful, palm-filled, sandy inner yard and Playa Norte. The hotel gets a lot of yoga practitioners and offers classes on a regular basis. The restaurant, Zazil Ha, is one of the island's most popular. A beachside bar serves a selection of natural juices and is one of the most popular spots for sunset watching.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
