Set amidst lush vegetation, in a short, walking distance from the beach (on a steep hill, though), Mercatto is both a sophisticated and cozy hotel. The staff is welcoming and the breakfast is plentiful and delicious. There are also many good restaurants nearby.

My wife and I had the privilege to stay in this amazing Hotel Boutique. From the moment we entered the gated secured property. We were both overwhelmed by the beautiful natural tropical landscaping. The house along with the 4 very private apartments was like you would see in a Beautiful Homes & Gardens magazine. I’m a retired executive with The Coca-Cola Company who traveled extensively during my 30 years of employment. This was with out question the most breathtaking hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The proprietor’s Patricio & Fernanda were so warm and welcoming to us. Offering us advice for local attractions and restaurants. Additionally changing his staff‘s schedule to provide us breakfast the day of departure. The hotel is extremely well located within minutes to the beach and the central locations for restaurants & shopping. One memorable highlight during our stay was meeting their sweet dog Coca-Cola! Of course, I immediately fell in love with her!
