The beach was beautiful, our room was nice and the staff were great however the property was just missing something, needed more music with dinner etc and some activities to be included ie bikes and kayaks. Limited food options for vegetarian which was hard bc you’re fairly isolated from other restaurants etc. we had a good stay but these things definitely could have taken it from good to great

Staff were mediocre. Island was beautiful! Transportation was a little unsafe. They drop you at the dock without parking the boat. They always seem in a hurry. I recommend to arrange transportation with the hotel not outside boats.

I loved the place. There weren't many people so I had the island for myself pretty much! Loved it... The beds are HARD, but I slept well on them. BRING REPELENTS! jejenes will sting you bad and ruined your trip! They should proactively warn about this.

The restaurant food was exceptional, but they need to have the menu translated into different languages and have pictures of each dish. All the food was freshly prepared and cooked, they even changed the menu to accommodate me.The beach was amazing and the staff was very accommodating to non Spanish speaking people. What I appreciated most of all was the honesty of the staff. I would recommend this resort for relaxation as there is no night entertainment, but they certainly have areas to accommodate parties.

Coco loco relaxing stay
Me and my girlfriend stayed at the hotel for 6 nights. The location is really good (probably the best on the islands) with 2 sandy beaches. The staff were very friendly and helpful for us who visited for the first time. We enjoyed the services of all staff but especially Dajver, Valentina, Byron and the receptionist - great coco loco! The restaurant menu can get quite repetitive and the prices are quite high for people staying there 6 nights as there are no other options to dine nearby in the night. Would be good if they had a separate discounted menu for hotel guests vs day trippers. They have day trippers visiting everyday from 10am-2:30 which we thought was good as it gets quiet in the night here, bar closes at 10pm. We walked around the island during the days and you can buy beer, water etc within 15 min walking. Download maps.me for the walking paths! All in all we were very happy with the stay and was very relaxing, even though we were unlucky with the weather 3 days with strong winds.

Relaxing three day stay
Everyone was really friendly and helpful. The food was good at the restaurant, and we never had to wait for service or food delivery. One night when I didn’t eat some of my dinner the chef came out to make sure there was a problem (there wasn’t—it was just a large portion). The beaches are lovely. The rooms were basic but comfortable. I thought from past reviews it would be noisy. Yes, they do play music on the beach from 9:30 until about 3 when day trippers are there, but it wasn’t overly loud and if you sat on the beach that was not in front of the bar it was actually not very loud. Nighttime was peaceful and quiet. We walked on the island paths and swam in the ocean. A really nice, relaxing 3 day break. The only comment I’d have is that it would be nice if they included specific information about how to get to the island once you make a booking, by email or text. I had to email them for information. Other guests commented on the same confusion. The did respond to me, and managing the somewhat chaotic port in Cartegena was a lot easier with the information they provided.

It is in a nice location, however, access to and from the island is highly limited, only once per day in the morning for arrivals and once per day in the afternoon for departures. If one misses either, than one must organise one's own travel to and from the island, which is expensive and difficult to organise.

We stayed for 7 nights from December 13-21, 2023. Know that you are not getting peace and quiet here. We thought a stay on a remote island would be the ideal place to relax reading a book, soaki up the sun & sleep with the sound of the water. Not so. Each day, the property welcomes boats of day trippers from 9 am to 3 pm (some days 50-80 people. Many other couples staying around it very disruptive, not just us. We told the manager that the loud music alternating from reggaeton, techno, pop at the whims of staff was disruptive, but he responded they need to please the day trippers who want a fiesta. Reading on the beach meant using noise cancelling headphones. Napping in the sun was impossible too. The food was tasty and the menu large (if expensive), but some items never came or took 1.5h. Sleeping required earplugs as hotels around played loud music late at night. The base ingredients for this place to be amazing are there: The beaches are swimmable with turquoise waters; the rooms are large & clean. Staff are nice but the place is mismanaged and organization is clearly lacking. We were given a "family room" in the main complex with only 2 beds when we booked a family cabaña with 3 beds as per the pictures and told photos are just for "reference". The highlight for us were the excursions with Simón and Ezekiel, which can be hired on the beach. If you don't mind the noise, go ahead. Otherwise, we can't recommendend it.

Not ready for prime time…
To start… I understand there was a change in management just days before we stayed there, so perhaps they are just getting organized… The hotel is on a beautiful piece of property with two lovely, swimming/soaking beaches and a lovely outside dining area. Loud reggaeton blaring… we finally asked them to switch to salsa but still LOUD and constant.If not your thing this will be an issue… The property is in overall good condition… but some key things lacking. Rooms are huge, sheets/beds comfy. Furniture is a few mismatched pieces of all wooden furniture… Out of place for the island.. and there was absolutely no place to put any clothing. No closet/no hangers/no hooks… This is a beach resort! No place to hang wet clothes, inside or out… No place for sandy shoes! We had to hang stuff on the one chair in the room. Cable wires were strung over the curtain rods. No water except small overpriced bottles for purchase. Restaurant was tasty, tho overpriced, and also just organized. Stopped serving dinner at 8:30 without prior notice… But kind waiter made a special exception to give us one entrée but no dessert or extras.. goodbye! You are really isolated, so I have no opt out option. Front desk was a disaster… asked for tour information and they were no help Turned out the hotel right next-door offered a night snorkel in the adjacent bioluminiscente bay.. Check out was chaos. Very complicated with much follow and no resolution… I’m still owed money. Not much but annoying.

Superbe séjour à l'hôtel Rosario de Mar. Le lieux est vraiment dympa. La chambre est correcte et propre. Immense salle de bain. Plage de taille moyenne hyper agréable. Des transats et serviettes à disposition.Bar et restaurant sur la plage, top. Mais surtout, c'est l'équipe sur place, pro et disponible. Restez y au moins une nuit pour bien profiter. Les bateaux repartent très tôt.
