Oldest, smallest and friendliest hotel on the beautiful Ancon Peninsula. Just 15 minutes by taxi to historic colonial Trinidad de Cuba. Rented a seafront bungalow (you should too) for two weeks. This hotel is quiet. No lager louts and yahoos stumbling about in a drunken stupor at 9 am. Lots of overnight day trippers so avoid the breakfast buffet until after 8 am when they board their buses.

Hidden Treasure!

We had a bungalow on the beach. It was a gem. Very clean & cozy. Both, the naturally enclosed beach and the pool were great. Food was well prepared, and well served. All the staff were friendly and helpful, and we were very pleased to make new friends, both among the staff and the guests. And yes, we certainly will return.
