What guests say
7.9 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 121 guest reviews
Casa Tropicana earns consistent praise for its unbeatable beachside location, impressive ocean views, and relaxed coastal atmosphere, with several guests noting they would return. However, the property shows its age through outdated bathrooms, cracked fixtures, and recurring maintenance issues — including a broken A/C unit and non-functioning jet tub — that temper the overall experience. Guests who prioritise views and location over modern amenities tend to leave satisfied, while those expecting polished facilities may be disappointed.
