호텔 부티크 Wirikuta

We picked Wirikuta online, never having seen the hotel in person, although we had visited Lo de Marco on day trips during our many winters in Mexico. Wirikuta has a cool (a plus) and nice swimmable pool, although it needs a serious and regular cleaning. Lots of green growth on the bottom and edges. The front desk staff of Isobel and Jessica are fantastic. Cheerful, happy and responsive. They made our stay comfortable and fun. Our room was nice with modern fixtures and tasteful. But it was poorly equipped. No knives, no toaster, no blender, no hand towels or plate scrubbers, no drawers for storing anything. The rooftop at Wirikuta is fantastic. 360 degree views of the mountains and ocean. We played cards up there and had drinks from the bar, which they had just opened. Unfortunately, the waiter up there, Fernando, was not friendly and had trouble getting our orders correct, even though two of our group spoke Spanish reasonably well -- meaning it wasn't a language problem. They had some good musicians play in the new rooftop bar, which we enjoyed, and they only played until 9 pm, so it wasn't a problem for any of the hotel guests. The kitchen for the rooftop bar/restaurant is on the main floor and it's two flights of stairs to the top. I wished they had put the kitchen on the roof and used the main floor space for a coffee bar for hotel guests in the morning. The hotel provided beach chairs, bikes, body boards and surf boards for guests to use. Would stay again.

The staff were very nice and accommodating. Things just weren’t quite ready for guests it seemed though. Will be a nice place when finished.
