to the architecture of the region;

no newspapapers and have lots of
wood, wide corridors, rooms are
very well aired and of course, you

and the exuberant flora and fauna
of the place.
The Hotel has three modules : The

The third module has the front
desk, the manager's office, the
kitchen with a self service area,
the bar (for 15 people seated at
the bar) and the restaurant for
50 people (all tables have sea view).
This area has a typical Caribbean
structure and totally open for full
ventilation. It is important to
remark that in our quest for improved
customer service, some of our facilities
offer easy access for the elder
and handicapped people.
For those persons that enjoy relaxing
at the beach, we offer at weekends
improvised Bar called "El Gallinero"
(The Henhouse) where you can drink
cold beer or rum with lemon, and
grab a snack.

This golden-sand beach stretches

an irregular, curved shape, and
plentiful coastal vegetation, particularly
palms. Ideal for walking, horseback
riding, sunbathing and swimming,
this beach also offers diving in
several areas in front of the town
