Luna Líquida Hotel Boutique

Luna Líquida Hotel Boutique

10/10 Excellent
"This place is so beautiful and unique. It really felt very local and authentic. BUT, the reviews are all true about how steep the hills are. Me and my partner underestimated it, and even as regularly active people we struggled to walk up these hills. Be aware that Uber drivers will also be hesitant and slightly annoyed at not only the steepness, but also the many potholes. We also had a few issues in the room, our toliet leaked, the balcony door had an open crack, and there was a hole in the wall that allowed lizards in. The toliet and balcony door was resolved immediately, and we honestly didn’t mind anything else. It was a really beautiful property and we felt very safe and relaxed. Breakfast was very light but lovely. We really enjoyed our time here!"

"Bellview is absolutely excellent! Front desk - Emanuel is friendly, helpful and kind. The view is amazing from anywhere you stand. We had a patio to drink our coffee in the morning and sip our tequila in the evening. It was not crowded this time of year so we had the whole place to our selves. The pool has a view of the ocean and church towers. We received a free welcome juice. The Capella restaurant is beautiful and dinner was very good. Strolling violinists added to the dinner. Our room had free coffee and water. Mini fridge was stocked if desired. Add breakfast to your booking because it is complete with fruit, fresh juices, pan cakes, meat, eggs and coffee. It was amazing!!!! We feel in love with this small boutique hotel in city center near the church and malecón."
