Hotel SOL

This location is fantastic! Very nice vibe with its own beach access. Almost feels like a hidden gem between all bigger resorts in the area. It is not luxurious and has limited facilities (e.g. no bar/restaurant or breakfast) However, the great location, beach and relaxed atmosphere completely make up for it! We also found several very nice restaurants in the area.

Reception was not great. But they had some plumbing issues and were a bit stressed out to get it fixed quickly (which they did). Also, the complimentary brewed coffee was either never made or it was very limited and we were always too late.

The look and feel of Hotel Sol was perfect. When I I book a place, relying on photos, reviews and websites, I'm never sure what to expect and am often disappointed. Not here. Exceed all my expectations. Peaceful, relaxing, gorgeous. I'll recommend to everyone!

The waves might have been better for body surfing.

Beautiful courtyard garden surrounding the pool was a very nice touch. The hotel was extremely clean; there was never a moment where you couldn’t spot an employee (or three!) hard at work spot cleaning. The front desk was helpful and friendly. We arrived for our stay on a Monday in early May and the beach wasn’t crowded at all, even on the weekend.

As a couple we really enjoyed our small room on the beach access side of the street. If you were to want the larger more family friendly rooms, they were across the street. I think I would not enjoy crossing the street to access the pool/courtyard and beach as much.

The place and beach were clean and it was not as crowded like the other beaches! A walking distance to coffee shops and restaurants which makes it very convenient if you're not renting a car. The staff were very nice and helpful as well. Katinya (not sure if I'm spelling her name right) was so helpful and gave alot of recommendations where to go and to get groceries and what not. We picked the full kitchen option, and we were informed beforehand that the full kitchen is only available in the newer building, which is located across the street (across the main hotel). Time wise- I think the walk is less than 5-10mins to the beach from our room. Having the full kitchen made it very convenient for us as we like to cook our meals. We were on the 3rd floor, which was nice because we could still see the ocean from our balcony. The hotel also has a bin of toys available for kids to borrow and play with while at the beach. Our boys def loved it! Overall, I think we had a very nice stay considering we had 3 kids with us.

1. The shower water pressure was weak and could be better. 2. We were only provided with 4 forks and 3 spoons in the drawer, so we were having to wash as we needed them. We probably could have asked for more, but we didn't bother and wasn't a big deal for us, really. 3. There is a coffee maker in the room, but it uses soft pods. I wish a regular coffee pot was available. Hot coffee is available in the main hotel in the morning, though. 4. Since our room was across the street, we had to cross the road each time we went to the beach. Just make sure to pay attention upon crossing because some cars will not stop even with the pedestrian light on. This isn't obviously the hotel's fault, but I just wanted to address it here for family with little kids.

This cute hotel is located on the beach. The sand is white quartz. Most of the rooms are arranged on two sides like a courtyard facing the pool in the middle. Outside the ground level rooms are tables and chairs with umbrellas to eat breakfast or just relax. When you walk past the pool there’s a covered area with chaise and then directly onto the beach. It was beautiful and relaxing.

This has nothing to do with the hotel itself, and it’s very incidental, but the area seemed a little industrial. Very limited places to walk and have breakfast/shop. The bathroom is tiny. It was clean and updated, but the glass shower door allowed water to leak out onto the floor, so we had to use a lot of towels just to sop up water.

We loved being right on the beach. The location was central to so many things to do, places to eat and social night life. The rooms were a bit small, but honestly we sleep there the rest of our time is spent outdoors. Very well kept rooms, housekeeping was amazing and pleasant. Great water pressure in our room. Overall the atmosphere was wonderful. Nice set up of the beach. We loved how private it was and that it never got over crowded. Very very clean beach front.

I feel like the people managing the place could be more engaged with the guest. Seemed like they were always overwhelmed or too busy to even say good morning. The customer service aspect is in need. I was also very taken back and surprised by the check in process. I never delt with the confusion about resort fees and final payments with Booking.com. But the check in process created a stressful beginning. However, after getting through it our stay was amazing.

Great location right on the beach. We had a room across the street, and it was easy to cross the street to main property and the pool/beach. We liked that our room had a separate area with a kitchenette, tv, couches, and a table. It would have been nice to have a sink in that room, the only sink is in the bathroom. Closet was large enough to put suitcases in, beds were comfortable, and outlets for charging phones were right above the beds. Hotel is a smaller, more quaint place to stay but that’s what we liked about it. The beach wasn’t crowded at all, and we liked being able to rent chairs and an umbrella for our stay. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and will consider staying here again if we’re ever traveling to the area again.

Not enough towels supplied in the room, and need more hooks in the bathroom to hang towels and wet bathing suits. Linen cleanliness was questionable- we found a few longer hairs on the bed blankets after check-in. No sink in the kitchenette area.

Standard double room was small but very nice with a nice bathroom, kitchenette, table and two comfortable beds. The garden area was our little retreat each day where we ate breakfast and lunch. Beach was beautiful and the hotel offered complimentary beach towels and plenty of lounge chairs if you wanted to stay close to the hotel while lounging in the sand. If you wanted to venture closer to the water, Hotel Sol offered beach chairs and umbrellas for a nominal fee for your stay which we took advantage of. The Hotel is located in a more residential area but restaurants are close in both directions. Though the room didn't have dishes or silverware, the hotel provided paper plates, plastic silverware, cups and napkins as well as a coffee maker, ice machine and vending machines in the lounge area across from the front desk which was very helpful. Parking lot on the beach side was small but Hotel Sol had plenty of parking across the street with a convenient cross walk to stop traffic so parking was never a problem. Front desk staff was always personable and helpful.

I can't think of one thing that I can complain about or wish was different.

The lounge chairs on the beach, direct beach access, and the courtyard area with a pool were very nice. The hotel is in a great location, very close to restaurants and cafes. The beach area was kept very clean.

When we checked in there were some article of soiled clothing left in the closet that housekeeping didn't remove. I threw it in the trash. The preset button on the in-room phone for the front desk didn't work. It would give an error message. It was a bit inconvenient to cross the street between the room we stayed in and the beach. Luckily, we were only making that trip once a day.

Location and super clean. Housekeeping staff awesome and friendly This time I stayed at the main building and no across the street. Next time I will come back, I will stay at the main building again because it is easier to carry all my beach stuff. Rooms super clean and upgraded.

One of the managers or owners not sure. A tall guy. Horrible attitude, not even a hello. When I spoke to him on the corridor asking him for something , he did not answer or acknowledged me, he just let and then later someone else brought me what I needed it. This is my second time time in this property, and I had the same experience with the same rude guy. Just need new pillows. Can't wait to come back again even if I have to see the rude and unfriendly guy manager.
