    The location was particularly good - close enough to Playa Potrero and Playa Penca and the Potrero beach. We had goodies and coffee at Carpe Diem Cafe, it was located a super close walk to the venue.

    Everything is great here, had a REALLY REALLY NICE stay on vacation. The villa is outstanding and has a microwave oven, a refrigerator, and a dining area. The bathroom is best, the beds are nice, the staff are amiable. The setting is lovely and favourable, not far from Playa Danta and the next beach along which is smaller, with nicer sand and less windy and Playa Potrero and Playa Penca.

    We recently stayed at Bahia Esmeralda for a relaxing family vacation. The pool and well-tended grounds provided the perfect oasis for our kids to play and cool off. With 3 bedrooms and a stocked kitchen, the unit was comfortable for our family of 5. The attentive staff was always ready with helpful recommendations. The location was ideal, with multiple nearby beaches and a variety of shops and restaurants within walking distance.

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    We had a fantastic stay at Bahia Esmeralda! The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making our experience even more enjoyable. The hotel is located in a secure area and is just a short drive away from beautiful beaches. We loved that there was wifi available, although it was not accessible in our room. The room itself was lovely, with good air conditioning and a ceiling fan. The bathroom and shower were also very nice. The pool, garden, and dining area were all beautiful, and the wifi there was excellent. a great place for the price.

    Couldn't fault anything during our stay! 😊

    We definitely got great value for our money at Bahia Esmeralda. The room was simple but well equipped with air conditioning, and the pool areas were lovely for relaxation. The location was perfect, with the beach and several restaurants within walking distance. The staff treated us friendly and the daily cleaning service was much appreciated.

    The hotel breakfast menu could use a little improvement, as it was quite limited. However, we found nicer typical breakfast options elsewhere.

    The staff was friendly and accommodating, always willing to help with any requests or questions we had. The pool was a great feature, providing a refreshing escape from the heat. We also enjoyed the close proximity to the beach, which made it convenient for us to spend our days lounging by the ocean and enjoying the beautiful views.

    There were a few negative aspects to our stay. The rooms were not well-maintained, with outdated and uncomfortable furniture.
