    We were frustrated with the booking process. We asked for two connecting rooms via booking.com and after we booked, we were told the rooms would not be connecting. That was not ok for us as we have two children under 5. We were not allowed to cancel the reservation - even though there is clearly a glitch in the way they are advertising room options on booking.com. Fortunately, we were able to come to a compromise but this was a really frustrating process and would cause me to pause on booking here again.

    Staff was extremely helpful. Specifically Jonathan. He helped us navigate a misunderstanding with our booking and made sure we didn't need to wait a long time for it to be resolved. Having two small children, we appreciated his attention to our needs. He was also helpful with recommendations for activities.

    No kettle coffee tea etc. in the room or at the lobby. Shower hardly works - lack of water pressure. Breakfast mostly sweet.

    The people are amazing. We could use one of two nights due to health problems. They did not refund us, since it was last moment. But they gave us their best room (Vila medeterain) and let us check out late. Nice people. The ocean view is unforgettable. Comfortable huge bed. The second bed is not if the same quality

    A very nice variety of breakfast options. The friendly staff took orders for omelettes. Each table was beautifully set and many tables looked over the lovely beach. What a great way to begin the day. I loved the convenience of my first floor room and the clothes line to dry everything after a day of fun. I really appreciate having a pitcher of filtered water in my room as I'm a huge water drinker. The towels and linens were of high quality and I enjoyed having use of a complimentary robe. The lodging was perfectly situated and met all of my needs; easy walk everywhere. The happy hour drink and tapas were a perfect way to relax upon conclusion of an active day in the sun. The staff were warm and welcoming as well with an excellent recommendation for daily excursions too.

    Maybe the lack of privacy in the “small cottage” we were at . The curtains didn’t close enough for my taste.

    Close to the shore at the beach…happy hour at the bar looking at the ocean and the staff were super nice.

    I did extensive research on hotels, and Casa de Marita is by far one of the best in the town. I will say, I think a big difference is beachfront vs inland rooms. When I looked at the reviews, those who had beachfront LOVED their experience, and those who got inland rooms without a view thought the rooms were moderately overpriced for what you get. My suggestion: get the beachfront view. The cost-benefit is worth it for those rooms.

    It's hard not to like Casa de Marita. It's right on the beach on the far side of the small town - so it's quiet on the property but easy to walk to everything. It's one of the closest hotels to the ferry (10-min walk). The staff was extremely attentive. Our room was clean (and spacious). Breakfast in the morning was included, and pretty extensive. We had dinner there two nights - both meals we really enjoyed. They helped connect us with a local tour guide agency, so we felt confident trusting the company to book/pay for tours in advance. Bonus: we paid for the jr suite, but were upgraded to the master suite because the hotel was only half booked.

    The evaluation and price must be mostly based on the other rooms as previously commented. Our room was pretty basic and not worth the price at all, breakfast was average (eggs not available not due to their fault), some of the staff wasn't so nice. It does have the good points stated, making it acceptable but not more than that. Book one of the other rooms if you are interested in this hotel.

    Good location, hot water, wifi in the room, ar conditioning, clean.
