Picturesque place along the beautiful coast. The hotel is located in a beautiful area around a winding artificial lagoon. All areas from the lobby to the breakfast room are beautifully decorated with tropical prints, cool soothing tones and lots of light.

Butlers and a sparkling blue infinity pool, two restaurants and a beach bar, plus a great kids club. 18-hole golf course Punta Espada. We highly recommend Solaya Fitness and Wellness Spa – an hour massage in a beach palapa.

Marble floors in bathrooms, stone bath and outdoor rain shower. Lights, TV and sound can be controlled using the iPad.

The hotel has three restaurants and two bars with high quality food. Try fine European cuisine at Mediterraneo: red tuna tartare with almond cream, sesame seeds and sherry vinegar, and open ravioli with river shrimp. At the Beach Club, enjoy seafood and Dominican fare at La Palapa: think of a fresh sushi rolls and BocaChica fish with fried banana. A favorite is the Blue Grill + Bar, which combines Japanese and Peruvian flavors. For a pre-dinner drink, try the nautical-inspired Riva Bar with aqua and mahogany décor.    The treehouse-style Koko Kids Club caters to kids ages 4-12 with arts and crafts, video games and a mini spa. There is an artificial beach here, and children can swim in the lagoon on mini-kayaks.
