Amaka Ocean Living Lodge

Quiet, Lovely spot. Everything was fine except the elevator was out of service and there were 23 stairs, hard for someone like me with mobility issues. Also, the photos make it seem as though the rooms have private balconies, but they do not. A common walkway connects the rooms and there are chairs for sitting on that walkway. Rooms 211 &212 would be best to avoid foot traffic in front of your room and also have the best views. Food in restaurant was good and included breakfast quite substantial. The area is quiet but beautiful. And, boy, can it rain!!!

Great for short stay! The hotel & restaurant are very nice and the bar/wait staff are super friendly and all spoke English pretty well so that was a plus for us. It's a small hotel so not very crowded at all. The rooms were modern and clean. The bed was comfy & housekeeping service was provided. The open-air restaurant had a nice breeze and fabulous view from every seat. The hotel had no pool which I totally overlooked when booking. The bartender told us about the spa pool on the roof, so we did enjoy a dip after dinner our first night before the rain came in. The bar was our only hang out in the evening & luckily it's covered which was awesome when the showers rolled in. There is one other little bar at the end of the property by the marina that has chairs in the sand and great views during the day. Since there is no real beach for swimming/laying out we drove our car around to the other side of the bay and found a rocky beach/swim area that had a cool vibe and even a little cafe/bar on the water that had the best ceviche of our trip! Not much to do right around the property so know that and plan ahead. We were interested in fishing or other tours but the tour desk was closed the entire time we were there. We did get someone to help us with info re fishing but when that didn't pan out we didn't want to bother them asking about other things to do so it's best to have an idea of what you want to do before you go so you don't miss out.

No vale el precio, pésimo servicio al cliente en restaurante y aunque las habitaciones son muy bonitas, el ruido es lo peor porque las habitaciones ven hacia el patio central de la marina y las ventanas y puerta no son soundproofed por lo que es imposible descansar. Además el oficial de seguridad no hizo nada cuando un grupo de personas estaban "de fiesta" a las 2am en la entrada del hotel, tuve yo que salir a pedir que hicieran silencio. No vale el precio para nada, cobran como un Marriott pero su calidad es totalmente inferior.
