This is our second stay in Salinas in this breathtaking hotel. The owner is a lovely lady who goes out of her way to help you with all your needs. The rooms are decorated beautifully and the ocean views spectacular. Breakfast is served and other meals can be ordered and picked up for you. Otherwise take a $2 taxi ride... More

If you want the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature, this is the place. Romance can be feel in the air. Great views. Enjoy breakfast with ocean view is priceless. Great service, owners of the B&B treat you like family.

Beautiful place, relaxing and the rooms are beautiful and clean. We were served our meals there... More

Everything in the room was new and made our stay more comfortable. The view from the hotel was breathtaking. Seeing beautiful birds of... More

A terrific little B&B right on the beach and just a couple of kilometers from the Salinas Malecon. It consists of a main house where the owner lives and where her personal guests stay. The main house is next to a 3 story building that houses the remaining guests. There are currently 2 large apartment/suites (a 3rd one is being... More

Let me preface this review by saying that I can't imagine why anyone would want to stay in Salinas. Its claim to fame is presumably the beach, but the beaches further north are far superior (albeit places to stay perhaps inferior). If you want a beautiful beach, go to Olon. That being said, we had to stay in Salinas for... More
