Very kind staff. Nice breakfast. Rooms on second floor are spacious.

Great location on the beach with a large common area. The restaurant was very good and the staff was friendly and helpful.

The experience and custom service. Each employee treats and approaches you by your name and are always willing to help. Big shout out to Anderson, Jaime and Luis.

The owner of the hotel treated staff very well during Covid closure and They in turn pampered us to death. It was a great place to escape the Covid hysteria with high safety protocols with almost no impact on high quality food, rooms and service. It was my second time at the Makao because I love the chill factor and I can't wait to go back. Special thanks to Luis and Margarita for making sure things were made right!

Very clean and modern spot right on the beach, nice for relaxing and a quick walk to all the main spots on Palomino. Clean room with fresh linens daily, Staff were super friendly and helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

Right on the beach. Beautiful location, very cozy. Close to everything, but so is everything in Palomino. Food was delicious and an excellent selection of wine. Staff was incredibly helpful and thoughtful. Could not have asked for a better experience.

The staff, restaurant and hotel are all wonderful!!

Staff was beyond kind and helpful. Food was great (we ate the Makao club for lunch almost every day because we loved it so much)! Perfect place for a peaceful relaxing getaway. Water is not super swimmable due to the undertow but we just went for small dips when we got too hot. Truly enjoyed watching the surfers !!

Very chic cool hotel you feel like you’re sleeping in the ocean. Amazing staff, breakfast was delicious. Loved the location. It was perfect.

The location was great, right on the beach and a close walk to the main area. The staff were also SO friendly and helpful. We got sick from eating at a local restaurant on the beach and the staff were so nice and accommodative. They even had someone motorcycle deliver us Gatorades!
