I booked my whole trip around this hotel. It is such a good deal for the price. I pored over the reviews before I booked and none of the negative ones matched my experience (except maybe that they are indeed a bit stingy on the towels, but you have what you need). Our room was comfortable and clean, we were able to stay cool despite the intense heat outside, the ocean view from our room was amazing (we were on the 7th floor), and we had what we needed (hair dryer, fridge, good wifi throughout the hotel). There are two refrigerated water coolers in the lobby area to fill up your water bottle (I had read that they don’t have free water onsite - this isn’t true). We ate dinner at the restaurant twice and it was great - beautiful outdoor seating with a view of the ocean, some good vegetarian options and they took my friend’s pineapple and avocado allergy seriously. The food was delicious and the waiter, Juan, was so kind. Juan even helped us get takeaway breakfast booked the next morning when we had missed the deadline to order one (our excursion left before breakfast started). The takeaway breakfast was not super appetizing (compared to the amazing breakfast spread), but I appreciated that they offered it. I had read reviews that said the included breakfast was not great and that wasn’t my experience so I’m adding photos here. There were always 8 hot entrees, deli meats and cheeses, fruits, sweet breads, oatmeal and amazing juices and coffee. I love that the hotel stay includes usage of the Langosta Beach Club, which is an absolutely delightful establishment. Their stretch of beach has beach chairs you can use and if you put down a $10 deposit, they give you a towel so you don’t have to take one with you. I had read recommendations about reserving the cabanas but somehow missed that they are free to use and all you have to do is reserve one 24 hours before at the Wyndham reception. Same with the Langosta fitness room - easy to make a reservation and the room has a great range of fitness equipment and a yoga room for those of us that forgot their workout shoes… The shuttle to downtown and to Langosta Beach Club is another amazing amenity that they offer. The first shuttle leaves at 7:30am and the last one returns at 9:15pm but it’s super simple and cheap to take Uber if you miss the last one. It might not be the most luxurious hotel I’ve ever stayed in, but it is absolutely lovely and it is certainly the best deal for the everything you get. I will be telling my friends to stay here.

“Awesome place”

Awesome place. Great breakfasts and the staff are very friendly and welcoming and helpful.

“Beautiful View”

A wonderful experience. Close to night life (although we were in bed early). Great restaurants close by. The rooms were perfect size and the View was AMAZING! I would definitely recommend this place for a stay.
