Hotel-restaurant appreciated by tourists, with swimming pool, terrace and hammocks, offering the possibility of many formulas
A small resort with nine well-arranged rooms, with terrace and hammocks. A very correct restaurant and a swimming pool in front of the sea. Many possible formulas. It should be noted that the hotel also often receives many tourists, who disembark from the boat to spend the day (between 10 am and 3 pm) in the swimming pool and on the small beach. At this time, the hotel is not at all as calm and quiet... This is the case of most of the establishments that organize the famous pasadías, very appreciated by Colombian tourists.

I had a regrettable experience at the Luxury Beach Club Tour, which was anything but luxurious. The day began with a frustrating one-hour wait in the blazing sun to get a wristband. The check-in process was extremely inefficient, involving queuing up to enter the pier, then separately paying a harbor tax of 26,500 COP (about USD 6.90) per person – a cost not disclosed until after booking. To make matters worse, at the Luxury Counter, only one of the two staff members was working, while the other was preoccupied with his phone, making the line move at a snail's pace. And no one spoke English.
We then waited another 30 minutes for the boat to leave, arriving over two hours after the scheduled meeting time. The beach was a mere 20 meters long, surrounded by neighboring beaches, leading to a cacophony of music. Swimming was far from enjoyable with the constant influx of boats, highlighted by the fuel boat arriving and turning on its loud generators – a bizarre aspect of this so-called luxury experience.
No towels were provided. At the bar, where drinks were supposedly included, essentials like cola or sparkling water were missing, resulting in tasteless mojitos. The all-inclusive drinks turned into a debate every time I tried to get a drink for my companion, with the expectation being that each person should queue individually.
Booking a bed was a waste unless you're lucky to get one in the front rows. Otherwise, you might end up near the toilets, far from the beach. The normal loungers were a better choice. The non-adjustable sun umbrellas left us exposed to direct sunlight.
The buffet lunch was another letdown. It opened 10 minutes late and closed precisely on time, serving only one piece of meat and fish per person. The food distribution felt like a prison, with announcements and strict limits. The only edible part was the main course – the soup was just a collection of fish bones.
Overall, this tour was a huge disappointment and definitely not worth the money. It seemed like a pure profit-making scheme with mostly rude treatment. Beware of the numerous 5-star reviews from local guides and travel agencies – they don't seem to be based on genuine experiences.
