This hotel is a hidden gem for anyone seeking a laid-back, family-friendly experience away from the hustle and bustle of party towns. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and I appreciated the low-key atmosphere. The service was attentive without being overwhelming. However, the restaurant was closed during my stay, which limited dining options on-site, and the bumpy roads might not be ideal for everyone.

This hotel has a beautiful location with unique bungalows right by the beach, which makes it a great spot for relaxation. While the bungalows are comfortable with good ventilation, the shower cleanliness needs improvement, and the beds could be cozier. The restaurant offers delicious meals, but it’s a bit pricey and the service could be better. The pool area is lovely, although the children's pool was not well-maintained.

Hotel Playa Negra offers a relaxing atmosphere with its beautiful beachfront location and charming bungalows. I loved the spacious and clean rooms, and the hotel’s vibe was family-friendly with dogs roaming around. However, the dining experience was quite disappointing with inattentive staff and overpriced meals. The pool area could also use some maintenance, which detracted from the overall experience.

I found Hotel Playa Negra to be a true gem for anyone looking for a casual and family-friendly atmosphere. The location right by the beach offers stunning views and a peaceful vibe away from the bustling tourist spots. My only downside was the availability of some amenities, as the restaurant was closed during my visit. The experience felt intimate, especially with the local wildlife adding to the charm.
