Low key, chill, friendly.
Hotel Dunama was perfect for me. Low key, not too crowded. The staff was above and beyond friendly and kind. The beds are comfortable. Good food, good drinks. There is a beautiful private beach. The pool is a good temperature and very calm. Gorgeous view of the water from the top of a hill. I’d stay there again.

The photos and reviews are deceiving. The property unfortunately is run down, the pool was dirty, the bed sheets were worn down and the rooms had a weird smell. The only good thing going for them was the staff who are extremely helpful.

The location is safe and close enough to other beach towns. The rooms are pretty outdated but it’s perfect if you plan on being out most of the time. Definitely a 3 star hotel. The views are amazing, staff was friendly. It was unfortunate that their laundromat “did not work”, Expedia should really remove laundry from the description. Definitely was not 24/7 concierge service, when we would get back at 11pm all the lights were off in the lobby / eating area and NO ONE was at the front desk. There was 24/7 security - nice man who let you through. Do not take “monkey trail” on your way there, if you do you’ll have to cross a small river - stick to the main roads.
