Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a quiet and lovely location in Westpunt, surrounded by some of the best beaches. The rooms are basic, and while they have essential amenities, they could use some improvement in comfort. The breakfast was decent but could have offered more variety.
I had a lovely stay at the Blue View Apartments near Rancho El Sobrino. The room was clean, and I appreciated the quiet location that was close to the beach. While the service was friendly, it could have been a bit more attentive. The dining options were basic, yet still enjoyable. All in all, it was a great value for money experience, but some aspects could use improvement.
I had a great stay at Blue View Apartments, which is located in a peaceful area on the far end of the island. The small kitchen in our room was a big plus, making it convenient to prepare meals. The pool was lovely and the staff was friendly, always available for a nice chat. However, being 45 minutes from downtown and 25 minutes from the nearest supermarket is a bit of a drawback for those who want easy access to more amenities.
The hotel has a remarkable location, being close to the best beaches in Westpunt, and the rooms are incredibly spacious and come equipped with everything you need. The service was a mix; most staff was extremely helpful but I faced a hiccup with an intern who seemed overwhelmed. While the outdoor kitchen is a great feature, the rooms could use more maintenance to keep them looking fresh. Overall, it's a good value for money, especially with the amenities but there’s definitely room for improvement.
The hotel is situated in an amazing location, close to the best beaches on the island, making it perfect for a beach getaway. Although the rooms seemed to be an afterthought in their construction and could use more planning, the staff was friendly and attentive. However, the service on my last day was lacking due to an intern handling too many responsibilities. Overall, it’s a nice spot, but some improvements in service and room quality would make a big difference.
