Beachfront Hotel La Palapa - Adults Only

Beachfront Hotel La Palapa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"We were on the second floor and the room had an amazing ocean/beach view. We had the far left room facing the ocean. The bottom floor would not be to bad but you lose some privacy on your balcony during the day. The place was a small boutique hotel so it felt comfortable and never crowded. The staff was friendly and very attentive to its guest. The daily free breakfast had your choice of I believe 6-8 items, which included juice and coffee. Choices were a full normal style breakfast (eggs, meat choice, bread), several different omelets, or chilaquiles (which was the bomb) and you ate breakfast on the beach. Could not beat the location. Perfect walking distance to the town center and easily accessible to walking the coastline. "
