Wonderful Resort with excellent staff !

Greta K (Surrey, British Columbia) on Apr 25, 2024

Wonderful small resort! Beaches are beautiful. Food is good. Staff are friendly and go above & beyond to help. Salvador brightens the day with his smile and amazing service. If you’re looking for a special drink go see Bruno in the lobby bar. Looking forward to visiting again soon !

Amazing Staff

Andrea W (Campbell River, Canada) on Apr 22, 2024

Thank you to Salvador, Girberto, Carlos, Marco, Norma, Antonio and Guadalupe for making our stay extra special. The Samba is small and older like the other reviews say. However, it is the outstanding staff that bring vacationers back year after year. The iguanas are also a bonus.

Very good trip. Rooms are dated but service is superb. Antonio greets you with a trustworthy glint in his eye as you arrive. Salvador was the face of the resort in all of the reviews we read to come here . All of the servers and bartenders ooze the smooth charisma you would expect. Want a quiet spot to enjoy the view off to the left of the grass past the pool.

Great Place!!!

Samantha B on Apr 21, 2024

Antonio is the first face we saw when first arrived and he was so friendly and helpful. It was our first time as a family coming to Mexico and he answered every question and made us feel at ease. Would definitely come back. Great experience!!!

Rooms a bit dated but the staff make up for it.

Bill G (Vancouver, Canada) on Apr 21, 2024

Salvador was excellent in looking after us at breakfast, lunch & dinner. Pools are nice, place is very clean and grounds are nicely landscaped. Entertainment every night and lots of activities daily if you want to participate. Italian and Mexican restaurant on site as well as main buffet for breakfast and dinner.
