The amount of character this place has, attention to details, the location and so clean!

Stephen, Vietnam

Beautiful płace, very well maintained and clean. The staff very kind. I certainly will come back! This time of the year beautiful Christmas decorations. The beach is beautiful as well.

Piotr, United States of America

The staff was helpful and made you deem welcome. Even though our room was not on the beach the property was designed in a way where the sound of the waves could be heard. Loved this!

Miguel, United States of America

Walking distance to the Beach. Local to great shops .Great food.

The staff at the hotel were very friendly, beach clean but busy (full of vendors constantly), grounds were kept up. Checkout was friendly, Nice kitchenette outside the bungalows, not in standard rooms. Security guard very informative on directions and assisting you.

An Inside Look at Cabañas del Capitan

This is the only property built with mexican details. The rooms are so different than any other hotel nearby, it is impossible to find such a detailed place. The mexican tiles included in the kitchen and bathroom make us special.

“Nice hotel that I wish were in a better town.”

The beach wasn't great (small and dirty) and was very busy including a lot of loud music. I didn't feel confident that the cleaning products in the pool were measured in any way as I watched this process. I stopped using the pool after this. The town offered very little for a holidaymaker.
It's a very comfortable hotel with the best facilities I could see in the area. I was very comfortable and the staff were helpful and answered my questions. The bar made good drinks which I fully enjoyed and there was access straight onto the beach.

Had to sign all this paperwork before you got to go to your room. Check out was a joke . The hotel had to check out the room, I guess to see that we did not steal the silver ware, sheets. Took at least20 minutes standing in the sweltering heat. Never had a hotel check my room before check out!

“Perfect for families!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Bungalow
- • Stayed 3 nights
My only main suggestion is adding umbrellas to the pool areas. WiFi reception was spotty, but it usually is in small towns like this because their broadband service is outdated. If you choose to cook, come prepare with matches and proper knifes. There are several small grocery stores where you can buy all the cooking essentials, or you can bring you own if possible. Parking is off site, but a loading zone is right across from the reception desk. The parking lot is large, well lit and secure.
The location is perfect! We stayed in a bungalow with the room balcony facing the street alley that leads to the beach. We stayed there on a long weekend at peak season. If you compared all the hotels in the surrounding areas, this one was the best. Peaceful and relaxing. At night the street noise and local festivals were very loud, the music did not stop until after 4am. But the hotel has no control over this, so the best we could do was keep the ceiling fan and AC fan on high to drown out the noise. The facilities are kept very clean, and everyone we encounter was very friendly. Lots of places to eat, literally everywhere and all within walking distance. The beds were very comfortable and fairly big. We have two small boys and they loved the open kitchen/living area. It was great waking up in the mornings and having breakfast while watching all the birds play amongst the trees. Overall it was a great experience.

“Good... Not Great...More value in other resorts or hotels possibly.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 1 night
The bed was rock hard, and I mean like a board, when you moved you could feel the springs in the bed. They would not let you check in at all prior to 3:00pm, even at 3 the rooms (2) were not ready. About 1 hour later the regular room was available. However the room was very hot and humid, since you had to have key to turn on the power, the entire room ;and leave it in, if you left your room you would have to pull the key and the room would be hot again upon return. The refrigerator in the bungalow room reeked like fish, and rotting fish. Also in the bungalow rooms the toilet is extremely cramped and butts up against the shower, the shower also did not have a shower head, it was more of a diverted that you would typically find on a beach for a quick rinse off. We did report the issue(s) at checkout, and didn't show much concern. For the price, the value really wasn't there unfortunately If your driving in from Guadalajara plan extra time to make it down the main pass into the city.
