Marsai Hotel Boutique

Property is good but they dump the waste to the ocean and smelled bad in the hallways, Elevators and outside of the hotel. Good parts are: 1. Property is fairly new & small (25 rooms) and modern. The rooms are nice & clean. Rooms did not have the smell. 2. The Ocean View was great. 3. Swimming pool was clean and warm. 4.The Rooftop Restaurant is awesome & the view is beautiful . The food was great w good chef’s touch. Venessa and Fernando were very kind & pleasant. 5. Front desk person was kind and gave us a late checkout. 6. The Beach infront of the hotel had lots of rocks but beautiful beach with soft sand is at about 200 ft from it. 7. The hotel has a great potential to be a quaint boutique destination if they take care of the smell coming from their waste.

Hands down the absolute best food I’ve ever had at an all inclusive! We were totally blown away by the quality of the food and friendliness of the staff. The food alone made this experience incredible. The infinite pool was great, we stayed in it for hours while enjoying delicious cocktails. The water on the beach was calm and great for swimming. We felt we had the beach to ourselves, it’s not crowded at all. Staff was helpful, very friendly and fun to talk to. All in all an amazing experience and I would highly recommend!

It was very secluded! The facility was very nice. Room was spacious and the balcony overlooked the pool/beach/Ocean. The staff was amazing and so service oriented. A wonderful and unique experience. Special thanks to Maggie and Alvero.

Everything was excellent!!! Gret place to go and relax

The staff was excellent and quick to please. The room was comfortable and clean. Better lighting is needed for shaving or make-up. The standout feature in addition to the oceanside setting, is the rooftop restaurant. Luis puts out top quality food all day. Th top notch food is surprising. A real luxurry. We will be back.

Staff was exceptional. Every single person. Location overall was good but parking is difficult and road to the property is very steep. Septic system was pumped about every third day and was done right at the entrance. However there was still leakage at the beach which smelled most everyday. Restaurant staff were over the top friendly and helpful. Views are breathtaking.

Great place to stay! Quiet and secluded. Very clean and has a good restaurant and friendly staff!

Great spot !!!!! And private as well

Not what I would call a luxury boutique hotel. The hotel is only a couple of years old, but was expensive for what it had to offer. Could never get a real hot shower while we were there. Staff in the restaurant were great and the restaurant on the rooftop was really nice with beautiful views. The hotel is quite isolated with not much around it very close. My biggest complaint was there was no sun on the balconies at all, and only a little bit of sun by the pool area later in the afternoon. Still getting some sewage smell as well.

Xiobella is a wonderful resort in a beautiful location. No doubt the best bang for your buck! Our room was on the 3rd floor facing the ocean and it didn't get much better than that! We saw whales from our bed and were able to sleep with the doors open to listen to the ocean and feel the breeze all night. The staff was very friendly and very accommodating. The chef made us the most delicious enchiladas! We had a very relaxing time, and walking on the beach in the morning was so wonderful. They offer tours to Marietas Islands and have private taxis for hire, but it was a bit pricey. We had a car, but ended up having to pay off the cops for "speeding" so in the end it may have been cheaper to get driven around... My only concern was the smell of the septic in the basement. Had we not been on the 3rd floor and had not had a nice ocean breeze, the air quality may have been different. Something to consider for those hot days with not much wind...although it may not be an issue. Who knows. Also, make sure you carry cash on you to tip the wait staff. Most of our cash had to be given to the police officers who pulled us over so we didn't have much to give and they don't leave a "tip" option on the receipt when charging to your room. One of the waiters was very aggressive in letting us know that we need to be writing in a tip. We gave a tip at the end when settling our bill, but that didn't seem like the easiest option...overall, I'd recommend it to a friend...
