Nice cozy hotel, close to airport. Perfect for long layover, Great value for the buck. Only con was the food. Fried food options didn't appear to be the freshest. Nor did it come out sizzling hot. Other than that awesome experience and very much worth visiting again.

This property was nice loveeee the ocean view love the nature on the property the birds are beautiful they keep pools clean and the plants watered. The lady that helped me reserve this was extremely helpful she went above and beyond. Check out was 4am which was mad wild and they put us outside and close the lobby, and the lady walked away. We are tourists and that was very distasteful and inconsiderate also they do not have wash rags or a microwave to heat up food if you buy elsewhere. But the people are nice for the most part and respectful

Property was quiirky plus amazing and very clean. They were constantly cleaning pool areas, seats, walkways, etc. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I cant imagine having a better experience with staff. Area outside of hotel is rustic, to say the least. Which we enjoyed greatly. Some restaurants are located at the end of street and along the way to hotel. Be prepared for chickens and dogs running around the restaurants (off hotel Property) but the food was amazing 👏 A great experience overall! The two "negatives" some peoppe might not like are the lack of hot water for showers (i think they only heat up water by sun in black water tanks) plus the toilets don't flush well (common in areas and countries like this.)We got use to the shower water temp and it even felt great after lots of time in the hot sun. The toilet barely flushing was always a concern but we made it work.

Hotel Estero y Mar was a great place to stay at. The property itself is stunning. Beautiful scenery and pool areas. Love the foliage around the property and the light set up for when the sun sets. Beautiful beach area to eat, swim and watch the sunset. Perfect for families and couples. Would recommend a maximum of 2 nights though. There is nothing around to do other than lounge on their property and you have to buy their food and drinks. No turn down service during your stay either, so you need to reuse your towels and no coffee pod refills. Wish their store sold or rented boogie boards.

Not worth the money

BEWARE not close to the airport at all. Reception was closed at arrival and had to wait long to get keys to our room. Reception said no connection for Uber and their driver charged $40.00 back to the airport, we realized uber app works perfect but by the time the Uber arrived was almost 30 mins, and we had to use their service to avoid being late to the airport. Uber would have charged under $15.00 bad customer service.

Look no further if you are looking for a place to stay on the beach. This hotel is absolutely amazing, quiet and uncrowded. You are submerged into the Garden of Eden from the moment you walk in. The palms and lush greens provide comfort, privacy, and shade. There are four different pools, so if you are traveling with family and kids, you can have them occupied all day long. The place is also like a mini zoo adding to the "jungle experience": there is a little pond with an alligator and turtles, one huge pen with monkeys and three bright Macaw parrots walking around for your enjoyment. The flowers, the greens and many little and large statues, fountains all around the property show a lot of love and dedication that the owners put into this place. There are also multiple hammocks, gazebos and private spaces all around the property. At night the grounds are lit with led lights all around the walkways and hanging from the trees - a magical experience! The rear side of the property overlooks the river and mangrove forest with many herons. The hotel provides a boat tour on the river through mangroves for $10 which I found a nice addition to the whole experience. The restaurant menu is diverse and you can find everything you need for your taste including your kids. I mostly ate seafood: seviches, stews, fried fish, etc. Everything was very fresh and really tasty. Overall the service was excellent throughout, the beach is amazing, the room was perfect and A/C worked great. Enjoy!
