A great island choice!
We stayed here for 6 nights, and enjoyed our time here. Although the rooms are a bit dated and worn, we didn’t expect 5 star amenities and it met our needs for the price. The hotel is very well managed, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The food is excellent and the menu is varied enough so that there are always a few things that that you might choose to eat. Also the prices are reasonable for an island hotel. This place does not see the hordes of daytrippers the hotels on the north shore get, so it’s rather peaceful. We had a superior king room that was very comfortable, with good AC (highly recommend AC; it’s pretty hot here). Our only recommendation to the hotel is that they invest in comfortable chairs for the dining area, and provide cushions for the pool loungers.

Das Hotel Secreto liegt traumhaft eingebettet vom Meer, Lagunen, Palmen und Mangroven auf der ruhigen Seite des Insel. Dort sind kaum Wellen. Es hat uns dort sehr gut gefallen. 😊

• Zimmeraustattung (spartanisch)
• Wasserdruck
• Bausubstanz teilweise mit erneuerungsbedarf
• Badestrand teilweise etwas schlammig
• Abends lange etwas lauter (Party)
- Endabrechnung auf Fehler kontrollieren
- keine Reaktion bei WhatsApp bzgl. An- und Abreiseorganisation (wird angeboten)
Wir würden die Anlage für Menschen empfehlen, die nicht höchsten Wert auf Luxus legen, die Natur und Entspannung sowie solides Essen lieben. Alles in allem stimmen hier Preis und Leistung.

Chairs are very uncomfortable almost everywhere on the property. One pool was closed and the other seemed to be under maintainence often (was also sort of murky looking). Guides could have provided a bit more instruction and written notes for the activity times and such would also be helpful. Otherwise it is very peaceful, the staff is super nice and accommodating, and there are activities available. Definitely good value for the price!

El lugar tiene varias puntos a favor y otros por mejorar. PROS. El personal es fenomenal...super amable...atento...servicial...muy muy agradable. La infraestructura es hermosa...las casa lindísimas...ame los mosaicos de los pisos y la decoración La piscina y el minitobogán son un super parche. CONTRAS. No hay playa. Hay que caminar media hora para llegar a la playa. La isla se quedó sin playa pública. Cierran los accesos con puertas de madera y candados. Lo hacen los dueños de restaurantes pues están ofreciendo tour con playa privada para las personas que llegan en bote a pasar el día desde Cartagena. Nos pasó en las dos playas supuestamente públicas...playa libre y playa cristal...ambas con candado todos los días del viaje. Para acceder a la playa tuvimos que llegar por el borde de un acantilado a través de un camino que nos enseño un lugareño. Pasa salir saltamos a través de los alambres de púas Todos los bordes de la playa están cercados y para pasar te piden consumir en los restaurantes. El mejor lugar para disfrutar en la playa es el resort Gente de Mar...son los únicos que no tiene bloqueado el acceso y reciben a quien quiera entrar. Tienen super claro que TODAS las playas son públicas y lo respetan. En los demás lugares te dicen el discurso que todas las playas son públicas pero es falso, o consumes para tener acceso o llegas nadando por la playa. La comida del hostel es mala y costosa. Sal al pueblo hay gran variedad a mejor precio y de muchísima mejor calidad. Reservamos suite con aire acondicionado pero nunca tuvimos el servicio. Estaba averiado. Omar el señor de mantenimiento hizo lo imposible por solucionar y no lo logro. Estuvimos 4 noches y ninguna con aire. En el día no hay nada para hacer en el hostel. Hay que buscar playa y comida, quedarse fuera todo el día y llegar en la noche a una fiesta que hacen. No tiene muelle. El bote te deja en un hostel vecino y caminas con tu equipaje. Nadie te recibe. En los demás lugares donde el bote dejo personas en el camino salía alguien a esperarte. Te llama por el nombre y te guia. Es una distancia de 15 minutos por terreno destapado y no está señalizado en absoluto. Llegamos después de estar un buen rato perdidos hasta que un lugareño que tuvimos la suerte de encontrar no guío. Lleva repelente, bloqueador, zapatos de agua y buena actitud. Esos son los componentes indispensables para que tú estadía sea agradable.

En general fue bueno, los alimentos son balanceados, tienen buen menu, los cuartos a pesar de faltarle un poco mas de mantenimiento, son comodos, el servicio de los meseros en la piscina y restaurantes es muy bueno.. lo unico a mejorar es la actitud de las dos mujeres q trabajan en recepción, les falta ser mas amables y tener mas actitud de servicio.. en general mi estadia fue buena.. es importante aclarar que el hotel no tiene una buena playa para pasar el día.. caminando 20 min hay buenas playas para pasar el día.
