I have enjoyed four days in Bungalow Mar (the one bungalow with sea view) and it was a paradise. The people working at the hotel are so kind and smiling (if YOU also remember to meet them with a smile and a greeting) - all of them, from the check in at the reception, the cleaning ladies, the handyman, that fixed my safe box and the satellite tv, to the lovely ladies by the breakfast restaurant. My beautiful Tatiana at the reception, thank you for all your help and smiles 🙏🤗 The gardens, the restaurant, the beach terrace are beautiful and with wonderful views of the sea. The pools are well maintained and overlooking the sea. The breakfast was very tasty: fruits, eggs, arepas, juice, coffee, and all served and enjoyed with sea view 😊 The Sea View Bungalow is a paradise! No air conditioning, no glas into the six big windows (only mosquito nets), no hot water in the shower. But who needs that, when you all the time can see and hear the sea, the birds or watch the squirrels playing and climbing in the big coconut tree in front of the bungalow? The big fan in the ceiling and the shadow from all the trees around it keep the bungalow nicely chill. Very comfy and big bed, good blinders for the six windows, good WiFi signal, and lovely views over the garden and the sea when you lay down on the bed. Woke up every morning before seven and started my day by grabbing a towel and going for a swim in the sea. HEAVEN! Short walk on the beach barefoot and along nice bars, surfing spots and some hotels (400 meters) and you are by the main road with shops, cafés and restaurants. Continue on the beach for one more kilometer, still barefoot, and you are at the point where Palomino River meets the Carribien Sea. I’ll miss this piece of heaven 🏖️☀️❤️

Hotel Chiniu was the perfect place for our April family vacation. The hotel is located right at the beach and is a magical place to watch the sunrise, swim during the day, and is safe to walk even at night. We had a room with air conditioning that slept four people, there was one queen-sized bed and two twin beds. The sleeping quarters were separated from the bathroom and shower area which was not air-conditioned but was perfect for drying bathing suits and towels at night. Each morning we enjoyed an included breakfast of which the menu slightly changed each day but included fresh juice, coffee or hot chocolate, a fresh fruit plate as well as eggs and arepas. The hotel staff were very friendly to us and accommodated our needs during lunch times, dinners, sweet breaks in the afternoon and cocktails at night. We also arranged a tour through the hotel to visit the Rio Palomino. The tour company was on time and very professional and our local guide was very knowledgeable about the river. One caveat is we should have brought more sunblock or sun clothing for the long beautiful float down the river. On our last day the sunrise was breathtaking and we were able to get a view of the La Sierra Nevada, and Pico Colon and Pico Bolivar. We also met the owners on our last day there who were very friendly and made sure we knew we were welcome back in the future. We had a memorable vacation and felt so safe and comfortable while there.

Almost everything. Two big pools with stunning views, cleaned on a daily basis. Great staff, very helpful, even though they do not speak english. Not a big problem. Basic spanish will get you everything done. Huge room with spacious closet. Perfect 'private' beach. Only 10-15 minutes walk by beach to town/redtaurants. Sound of waves and birds makes it realy chill place. Loved it!!!

The location is marvellous - in the middle of nature, having the view of palmtrees all around. That’s priceless. We had perfect view from our terrace. Nice pools. Bars, restauranst start just from the hotel area till Palomino “center” - nice walks on the beach. Overall we enjoyed our stay, because we rate surrounding and athmosphere over other things 😎

Hotel Chiniu ("Hummingbird", in English) is a little peace of paradise on earth! The setting, amongst beautifully-tended gardens and tall coconut trees is a haven for relaxation and the two pools are spotless. The staff are marvellous and very welcoming, and the restaurant food delicious (try the Caldo de Verduras and the Placer Caribeño!).
