Easy location excellent service
The location was great. The best part about this was Carlos. He was so helpful. He arranged our tours for us. He was so accommodating and gave us WhatsApp so we could call him anytime we needed to for anything. He was so helpful. The place is good it’s central to everything. It’s so easy to get everywhere. There’s bike rentals across the street.

Nice comfortable stay
After booking at another hotel and realizing right away i made a mistake, i was able to find this much better hotel right away and within 10 minutes was already here with a nice room ready for me. The owner is very nice and does what he can to make your stay pleasurable.

This is a beautiful, clean, upscale, hostel with coffee and refrigeration options. Quiet, air-conditioning, and nice surroundings within the property make it a high-end hostel. Bathrooms are tiled. Beautifully water is hot and rooms are spacious. If you arrive at a time when there’s no one at the desk, you can still use the area and it is possible the key to your room has been left in the door to your room. no one was available, but I knew what I had booked and I saw a key in a room door, I went in, set up, took a shower and locked up and went to the beach. An amazing value for what you get which is top-notch hostel.

Highly recommend Starfish Hotel
Starfish was perfect for our family of 6. Super clean, tastefully simple and quiet. Carlos was a super host and surprised us with a complementary late check out on our last day as we were waiting to catch the ferry AC and wifi worked well. Highly recommend Albita Grill restaurant that just opened Jan-01-2024.

Small and cozy little hotel
This is a cozy small place, and the lady/manager is super friendly. Ms Rosita's English isn't very good, but she is super helpful and very sweet. The stay was very enjoyable!

Mejor opción
Me quedé 3noches la habitación en primer piso. Estaba súper limpio y amplio especialmente parte del baño, las instalaciones todavía están nuevas, así que fue muy muy cómodo. Y Carlos estuvo muy atento conmigo, él es una persona muy amigable y considerada. Puedes caminar todos lados, hay un restaurante frente del hotel, y farmacia, mini super están muy cerquita. Entonces recomendable 100% Starfish, muchísimas gracias. 写真よりずっと新しいお部屋で、特にバスルーム/トイレが新築並みでしかもスペースが十分ありすごく快適でした。清掃もしっかりしてくれて、ベッドメイキングも完璧。ただ、ドライヤーがないので必要な方は持参されたほうがいいです。

Super liebe Gastwirtin
Es war fantastisch, ein sehr schönes, neues Hotel, mit viel Platz, King size Betten, modernes Bad, schönem Patio, alles pico bello sauber, Wäscheständer für die Strand wäsche, schlauch zum Sand abspülen, Bäckerei gegenüber die Dir kaffe macht und beim rübertragen hilft, shops+apotheke vor der Tür, ca 400m zum Strand einfach traumhaft! Fahrradverleih in Nähe zu günstigen Preisen. Essen und trinken in 200-300m
