My stay at this hotel was like having a full apartment at my disposal, complete with a gas fireplace, a spacious living room, a dining area with a table, a fully equipped kitchen, a covered balcony, a massive walk-in closet, a large bedroom, a luxurious bathroom with double sinks, and the ultimate convenience of a washer/dryer machine with laundry detergent. The suites were so well-equipped and furnished to a high standard, making me feel right at home. The only downside was being awoken by pounding sounds at 7 AM, which was a bit unexpected.

Staying at the oceanfront penthouse suite was a delightful experience. The rooms were spacious and beautifully appointed with a foam mattress, although some outdated amenities like the coffee maker and old kitchen could use an update. The lack of sleepers was a minor inconvenience. It was a great value for the size of the suite, and the full kitchen was a nice touch.

The hotel's location, hidden behind bushes for privacy, was peaceful and only a short ride to San Luis town. While it was quite isolated with limited activities other than the pool, the nearby cliffs offered a stunning view.
