La Sirenita

Quiet but with easy access to the beach. Big rooms.

The shower didn't have any flor partition to the rest of the bathroom so after showering the bathroom floor was wet. It did dry up reasonably quick thou.

The location is excellent. Easy direct access to Alona beach, but since it's at the end of the beach it is also quiet. Everything was clean as they clean the rooms everyday. I did however receive towels that looked quite old and had bleach stains on them. But since they smelled nice and fresh it was ok for me. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They had great tips and allowed me to check out 20 minutes later at no additional charge. If the hotel made some small improvements it could easily be in a different price range, so for me it was worth it!

The shower was not very hot and only had a little bit of warm water. I couldn't really warm up after a day of diving. The were no plugs close to the beds. Breakfast is only served from 7 to 9 a.m. at an additional fee. The prices are very reasonable but I often had to leave before 7 a.m for excursions or slept until 9 am. It would be better to offer breakfast from 6 - 10 a.m. They will ask for a 1000 peso deposit in addition to having to pay the whole stay in cash. This means you need give a lot of time at check-out as they need to check the room before reimbursing you. They don't accept card payments (even for the room reservation) which given the large amounts is annoying (especially since ATMs on the island will not give you enough cash so you have to pay the ATM and conversion fees several times).

Big room and proximity to beach. Nice staff and nice garden.

We didn't have a balcony. Was described as balcony but was 2 chairs and table in the outside corridor leading to other people's rooms.

The location in front of the beach is very nice, lots of restaurant nearby (not the best options though), the rooms are clean and spacious
