Buena Vida Resort and Spa0

Great beds and beautiful hotel. Looks really like a spa with the set up, the Buddha and the jacuzzi. Breakfast is in Ocean Vida resort, what is a 3min walk, but with Seaview and the best Breakfast in ages I had. Really nice and you can also have lunch or dinner there and put it on your room number and pay at check out. Definitely a nice place to stay. Also the beds were comfy and a big balcony...

The shower!!!!! The place is so beautiful, the room too, the bathroom is also nice and then they put up this very cheap shower head. Not even possible to stand under it, you need to take it from the holder. This really ruined the complete picture of this nice (but also expensive) spa resort. It costs maybe 7000peso to install a proper rain shower set up. We paid 5200 per night. Hope they will change this soon. I mentioned it in the reception, but the manager just let the shower head changed to a new one, but still the same set up. See photo.

We spent four nights at Buena Vida and would definitely choose this hotel again! Nice room with a big terrace perfect for relaxing, just a 3 minute walk from the beach, diveshops and the market. Also the massage was great! The breakfast is served at their sister hotel Ocean Vida, which also offers packed breakfast and lunch sandwiches if you're going on an early dive or for day trips. Free water is available at the reception. Highly recommended!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Buena Vida Hotel! The rooms and terrace are very spacious and clean. We also appreciated the little extra good night sweet treat every night and the very friendly staff. It made us feel very comfortable throughout our stay!

Really stylish and clean, nice big rooms!! The staff was super friendly! also the partner hotel where they serve breakfast is nice and directly on the beach!

a bit of a bad smell out of the bathroom facilities. we had room number 4 which i think considering the noice is the worst of the rooms - it‘s the one on the end and there is a storage or something like that next to the window so privacy is also not too good. the staff making their break directly in front of the window, had a dark room because you have to keep the curtians closed, woke up to someone of the staff sitting in front of my window watching instagram reels really loud and sounded like he/she was in my room. also when doing yoga they were walking by every minute which was a bit disturbing being observed during exercising. i think the other rooms are better just avoid #4
