Pros +
- Location was good. But conditions of cabanas were terrible overall conditions were terrible
- We liked that there is shared parking, and we stayed in a cabin.It was very easy and convenient to drive in and park right next to the cabin.
- The hotel has an excellent beachfront location, making it easy to enjoy the sea and surrounding area. Having dedicated private parking is a big plus, especially in such a busy spot. The bed was very comfortable, the staff were pleasant and welcoming, and the breakfast was adequate.
Cons -
- Room size, bathroom, interior was not in good condition
- The breakfast was terrible and cold.The website states that breakfast is included, but in reality it was not. We were not informed about this at the reception and were simply charged for a room with breakfast.I do not eat pork, so I paid for breakfast but ended up having nothing to eat. Guests’ dietary preferences should be asked in advance.
- On the downside, the evenings can be quite noisy due to nearby nightclubs and beachgoers, which may be an issue if you’re sensitive to noise. Additionally, the shower did not drain properly and tended to pool water.

excellent service. Ideal alternative when we visit La Serena for work
internet in my room was not good.
Perfect location and the ladies responsible for the breakfest.
The rooms needs refreshing, cold swimming pool, and the breakfest had only one warm dish.
Right on the beach near very good restaurants Great safe parking and very friendly staff - highly recommend
Great value & Location. Cabin was perfect for my needs.
Same limited continental breakfast every am delivered to Cabin.
Breakfast was amazing, the room was large and the staff were friendly. There is a nice view of the sea from the breakfast room!
Nothing negative to say, it was great.
Spacious room, comfortable bed, great breakfast, excellent parking on site
Room was a little cool
Great location and helpful staff
Noise from the street till very late could be heard even in our second floor back room
Nice location ....
No-one to help with bags and no lift. Understaffed Noise from street
Very nice place, attentive staff, spacious room with a super comfortable bed. The breakfast was plenty and wholesome. Would definitely come again.
Great location right across the beach. We stayed in a room that faces the beach. The room was small, but the beds were comfortable, two double queens, worked out well. The bathroom was really small, but we managed. The breakfast was amazing! lots of food options and staff very friendly. The restaurant in the hotel had very few menu items, and mostly things premade that they simply warm up. We ended up eating every night at Huentelauquen restaurant/bar right across the street. Their food was just amazing! the pizzas right out of the oven right there and then, vast menu of drinks, playground inside the restaurant for the kids, live entertainment and a convenient ATM machine. Even though it was right across the street from the hotel, it was not noisy at all, which was my main concern when booking this hotel. My kids slept well so did my husband and I. At around 6pm or so, Avenida del mar gets full of life, with businesses opening to the people that walk by, music on, food and live entertainment. By 10 to 11. everything closed and you could hear just the beach. We traveled in November, but locals say during the summer months it gets busier in that area. Overall, was a great stay!
restaurant menu with very few items, small bathroom.
The breakfast is very good, the best I had on the trip. I noticed Chileans seem to like desert pastries with breakfast. The hotel had lots of home-baked deserts that I liked. The hotel has plenty of secure (fenced with an electric gate) parking in the back,
I really can't think of anything.
Breakfast was great and also the location.
Our room was very noisy in front of a restaurant/bar.
Good location right across the street from the seahorse. Next to some nice local restaurants. Breakfast was really good. The staff it’s really nice. That’s the best part.
It could be a little bit less expensive but it’s still good enough to have a nice rest if you need it,It does not have its own restaurant but the breakfast it’s served with a lot of options.
the staff was really nice. we asked for 2 coffees in the afternoon and they sent them as courtesy
superb and friendly staff, nice breakfast with COVID protocol.
Decent breakfast.Central location.Friendly staff.Proximity of sea.
Shower leaking to the room - this must have been happening for a while as the door was all mouldy and warped.Maintenance did not address the leaking shower.Mouldy smell in the bathroom.Room across the room from the noisy bar (it would be much better to have room on the other side of the hotel.Small pool.
Staff in general were really polite, specially the ladies who where serving the breakfast and the guy who attended the night shift at the reception.
Bathroom shower, didn't have a door, shampoo dispenser was broken, and they double charged my credit card, once for the 50% of the price and then another 100% paying a grand total of 150%... if I didn't check my credit card statement I wouldn't have noticed it. Be cautious when booking on this hotel.
