The hotel was warm and welcoming. Room was phenomenal with a balcony. Close to activities, the beach and food establishments. Whatever you need? The hotel offers it.

This pool in the picture does not belong to that hotel. It goes to some other property. They do not offer free shuttle rides like advertised. We has very vague communication since they don't like to answer the phone and they told use to take a taxi. The room in the picture was actually a room that seemed very dated. They were no where near a beach you had to walk a few blocks and there was construction around the property. The bathroom was small and it looked old and danty. The pool was small and looked very mediocre. I was not happy and went to another hotel. The manager at the hotel tried to offer me another room but she wasn't understanding the services weren't met and that nothing from the advertisement is what it seems. They didn't have air conditioning as well. I was not impressed.

Anoche, después de cenar y de vomitar, llamé a Hotels.com para quejarme. número de referencia de hotels.com 9161982171313. Envié muchos mensajes incluso antes de llegar a este hotel e isla. no hay comunicación desde este hotel. Me iba a comprometer con mi novia y elegí este hotel para pasar mi tiempo especial con ella. Solicité la mejor vista posible y las suites por las que pagué. esta reserva también incluía un masaje gratis. al registrarse, este hotel ya no ofrece un masaje gratuito y no dio ninguna alternativa para compensar esto. Estoy atascado con una vista parcial del océano, pero lo que es más importante, la vista de mi balcón es de dos edificios recién construidos. mi balcón tiene cero privacidad debido a que los trabajadores de la construcción nos observan. Escuché a los trabajadores silbarle a mi novia cuando estaba parada en el balcón de tres hombres. Esta experiencia no ha sido nada extravagante ni agradable. por $1.000.000 COP podríamos haber comprado nuestra propia botella de alcohol por 75.000 COP. No comimos en un restaurante donde gastamos más de $100.000 COP. y en 6 días aquí en la isla ninguno de los dos vomitó hasta ahora. Debido a la mala calidad de las comidas aquí, hubiera preferido comer en otros restaurantes que aquí. He reservado más de 160 noches con hotels.com y por el precio de este hotel no recomendaría absolutamente a nadie que se quede aquí. No tienes ofertas en coches de alquiler. No tienes ninguna ventaja para ofrecer a los invitados upur.

Me gusto el hotel y el personal que trabaja allí es excelente, Roger en la recepción fue muy amable y me ayudó mucho con mis necesidades para que mi estadía fuera agradable. También David fue increíble desde el momento que nos dio la bienvenida, hasta el momento de tener que regresarme a casa. Lo único que no me gusto fueron los alrededores del hotel, esos edificios en construcción le dan un mal aspecto a la propiedad y se ve muy desagradable. La comida estuvo bien pero falto un poco más de variedad y un poco más de sabor.

Refrigerator was stained and disgusting. They had no hot water. They had no washcloths even when I called the desk. Breakfast was late so I didn’t get to eat before I left for the airport. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT a four star property. The view from my balcony was a slither of ocean in the distance. The rest of what I could see was open construction right underneath me and the side of me. No one has cleaned the ceramic tile on the balcony in a looooooooong time. Even the light switches had grime on them. I would not recommend this property if you have ANY standards.

The service from the staff is excellent. They take the time to talk to you and some even speak English. My room had an amazing view! The only thing I didnt like and they seem to be aware of the issue: the windows rattle and you can hear the wind. I stuck some cardboard in the windows and that eliminated the noise. The food was excellent!! Dont take any items from the minibar, its not included and you will pay quadruple!!

Do not stay at this hotel. This was not a 3.5 star experience. We booked 4 nights and quickly realized after check-in that the hotel was entirely occupied by hundreds of 15-year old girls for a school trip. The result was overwhelming—the pool was taken over by them and each night we had to endure girls screaming and slamming doors outside of our room until 3:00am. The hotel is old construction and the doors/windows don’t protect from any noise in the hallways nor outside on the street. Basically, we didn’t get any sleep for three days. We weren’t told in advance of the circumstances, nor did they seem overly concerned with our horrible experience. When we couldn’t take it anymore, and we finally told the front desk that we had to change hotels because of the noise, the front desk staff informed us that the “manager in Bogota” refused to issue us a refund for the last night’s stay (which we weren’t using). In addition to not being able sleep, there was a cockroach in our room, the WiFi sucked and the breakfast was basic at best. While the staff was fine and the location convenient, I would advise you to avoid this hotel, as it’s not worth the price and there are other/much better options; we moved next door to the brand new "Samawi" hotel, for the exact same nightly cost, and it was heads above Arena Blanca.

This place was beautiful exactly what you see in the picture, we had a lovely view however the pool is under construction but that wasn’t a problem because we went to the beach. The main problem was that the air conditioning started leaking in the middle of the night I woke up to hearing water droplets and when I called reception they came up with towels and left a bucket. They offered to send someone up to fix it but it was our last night so I said not to bother. Other then that the next morning I turned on the air con and after 20 min it started to leak again. Sort of ruined the perfect stay in this beautiful island

The staff's response was good, but the location and facilities are not reasonable. Especially hot water and Wifi are the worst. It is not worth the price.

Hotel is slightly overpriced! When I booked the the hotel it stated we would have a massage included in our all inclusive, we arrived Sunday am and there were no appointments until Tuesday night, by then we had checked out! The hotel advertised nightly shows and there were none! There were kids parties on both days we were there and the pool was dirty with food and what looked like streamers. The food was probably what made our stay worth it! There was a variety at all meals, drinks were decent and the location was convenient as you can walk to the beach and the city center! Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable! There is no good view as the surroundings are either in ruins or a construction sight! It is noisy in the neighborhood but that did not bother us! Staff was friendly!

Wifi didn't work at all ... connectivity was almost non existent in the room but the real problem was that even where there was connectivity the actual internet never worked once for me not like it was really slow like it does not load anything. Effectively the hotel has no internet but has wifi routers 😏

The front desk personnel at check in were rude and during the stay at times difficult. The rules for visitors are very dated. You can only have visitors in the lobby until 6 at night. You cannot bring young or older visitors to the room for any length of time. The construction and noise were unbearable in the room.
The personnel at the meal were very nice. They should have been at the front desk.

It's a nice enough hotel with good food choices but they are building all around it so the construction noise is terrible and in a few months it will not have any view of the ocean. The pool is in great condition and the staff have great costumer service.

Got to the Hotel early but did not get checked in until 4:30 in the afternoon. Bad wifi, power went out twice. Shower head was bad. And no water the morning of check out. I would not stay here again or recommend

The hotel is pretty new , the stuff was excellent and exceeds the aquarium hotel standards! Some rooms have ocean view! Food is great! Interior garden and pool is great! Had 2 free massages with room and breakfast and lunch included for only one night stay! Just few minutes from the beach, shopping and clubs! Very happy with the hotel experience!

DO NOT VISIT THIS PLACE!!!
WENT HERE FOR MY NIECES SWEET 16 AND A FAMILY REUNION, EXTREMLY HORRIBLE, THE HOTEL LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE PICTURES, IS OLD AND DIRTY, THE STUFF IN THE BUFFET AREA THEY ARE REALLY NICE BUT THE FOOD IS AVERAGE NOTHING SPECIAL, BREAKFAST IS THE SAME WVERY MORNING, THERE IS CONSTRUCTION EVERY WHERE YOU LOOK! IS FAR AWAY FROM THE BEACH, THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO MAKE ACCOMODATIONS FOR YOU OR MAKE YOU FEEL WELCOME!! YOU HAVE TO GET THE CHAIRS AND TOWELS IN A DIFERENT HOTEL WHEN YOU GO TO THE BEACH, NO UMBRELLAS ARE GIVEN EITHER, YOU HAVE TO RETURN EVWRYTHING BY 5:30 OR THEY CHARGE YOU AN EXTRA FEE.
CANT SWINM IN THE POOL AFTER 6PM AND THE FLOOR IS ALWASY WET AND SLIPERY.
I EXPECTED MORE FOR THE PRICE, ABSOLUTLY NOT WORTH IT RUIN OUR WHOLE VACATION!

Convenient location. Pool area is nice but some construction during the day. Food is okay. There are lots of restaurants walking distance away, so depending on price difference between all inclusive or not, it might not be worth it. But breakfast was definitely good with a variety of things. Staff were nice but a little pushy trying to upsell on tours. Room was clean and comfortable but nothing outstanding.

The staff are really nice, but some people of the reception are not very nice. Food is very good, facilities ok, clean, i dont know if inhad room service, but its ok. The big trouble was a communication problem between the hotel and the hotel administration. I paid before i get the hotel, but the moment i was checking in, the receptionist told me that i have to paid the same amount that i was already paid for it. Another problem, was that i selected all inclusive plan, but they told me, it was half board. To finish, when i was making check out the men at the reception told me that expedia charged me less money.mit wasnt too much, but, i think you have to check the way to communicate with them, because its really disturbing when you want to start your vacatiions with you family and you dont know what to do to solve this kind of problems. I printed the receipt, but they have different information. Last year, i made reservation for vacations, and everything was perfect.

Hotel was very comfortable and close to all amenities. Food was good.The only problem was the noise from the building site next door - this was of course beyond the control of the hotel and should cease later in 2016.
