    dated bathroom

    Shutters were sealed shut, leaving the room dark without a view. Bathroom windows allowed mosquitoes inside, an issue compounded by an urgent need for updates. The dining area had a lingering sewage smell that detracted from meals. Breakfast options could be a lot better, and late-night dining access was limited, forcing a drive into town for food.

    stunning gardens
    relaxing atmosphere
    helpful staff
    dark room
    unfriendly service

    The stay at Chiniu in Palomino was exciting. The gardens were absolutely stunning, bursting with colorful flowers that brought a peaceful atmosphere. I loved the relaxing infinity pool overlooking the beach. it was perfect for unwinding after days filled with sun. The staff made a world of difference, especially Tatiana at the reception, who was incredibly helpful throughout my stay. I particularly enjoyed my Sea View Bungalow. With six big windows featuring mosquito nets, I woke up every morning to the calming sounds of the sea. Breakfast by the sea was delightful, especially with fresh fruits and tasty eggs. However, the dining experience did have room for improvement. The restaurant staff could be more welcoming, with one lady not making us feel very comfortable during our meals. Also, I noticed that the shutters in my room were sealed shut, leaving it a bit dark without a view, which was disappointing. Though I appreciated the peaceful surroundings, an update to the room, especially the bathroom, would greatly enhance the experience. Despite these issues, Chiniu offered memorable moments and a beautiful ambiance.

    The garden area is absolutely stunning, with colorful flowers and a tranquil vibe that makes you feel at peace.

    The staff in the restaurant were unfriendly and unresponsive, often leaving us feeling uncomfortable when trying to order.

    A Relaxing Family Escape at the Beach

    Our family loved the beautiful gardens and the fresh fruit breakfast was a highlight each morning. The nearby beach provided a relaxing atmosphere for our little ones to play while adults enjoyed sea views. Be sure to explore local dining options just a short walk away for local flavors.

    beautiful garden area

    beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

    The garden area is absolutely stunning, with colorful flowers and a tranquil vibe that makes you feel at peace. I spent my mornings enjoying a refreshing swim in the infinity pool, perfectly overlooking the beach. The massage I received at the spa was rejuvenating and absolutely heavenly, thanks to Estelle's incredible skills.

    pool paradise

    Family with children bliss

    We experienced an amazing stay here, the pools were well maintained and you could relax by the beach while keeping an eye on the kids. And seriously, I had some incredible laps in the pool every morning, just felt like I was on top of the world.

    It wasn't inexpensive , but for the experience and amenities, I'd say it was reasonable.

    relaxing atmosphere

    It was just a perfect match for a mini-break over the weekend in Palomino with fantastic value for money. The atmosphere by the pool was relaxing, especially after a long day at the beach. Make sure to check the local restaurants nearby for great food options.
