The rustic-style rooms at Capitán Suizo Beach Front Boutique Hotel are air conditioned and have a seating area, safety deposit box and balconies. They are decorated with wooden furniture and light-coloured beddings. The garden is absolutely delightful, it has the most exotic fruit trees, it's paradise! There are even cats, lots of them, beautiful and friendly, I would have stayed there for a month! :) It's the most peaceful place. And the rooms are, of course, very nice, very spatious, actually the size of an appartment, the bathroom as well. The staff is also great, they were very, very patient with us, even though we were a bit dizzy from the jet lag, had been switching accomodations every day for a few days, forgot stuff in our room at check-out, annoyed them with food that we needed refrigerated and so on. We couldn't even stand ourselves anymore :) Anyway - if we ever come back to that area, we'll be staying there, for sure.

The gardens and pool area are beautiful, food was great, so many options at breakfast, Yerling and Mali at the spa were outstanding. The garden with access to the beach was very convenient and the location was perfect. We felt the value for what we paid was exceptional.
