I had a pretty mixed experience at Hotel Banana Boutique & Spa. The location is super convenient, right on Fifth Avenue and close to the beach, but the noise can be overwhelming at night. The atmosphere was nice and the front office staff were really friendly, making my stay enjoyable. However, the rooms could use some upgrades, especially the bathrooms, which felt a bit dated.

My room was clean and spacious, but the bathroom had some issues. There were no curtains in the shower and it looked like mold had been painted over. Also, the lack of furniture on the balcony was a letdown.

The hotel's location was perfect for what I was looking for. It’s close to amazing restaurants and just a short walk to the beach, although being right on a busy street means it can be quite noisy at night.

Breakfast wasn’t impressive at all. It was basic and served in plastic cups, which was kinda disappointing. I had to walk a bit to find something more satisfying.

While there were some nice facilities, the swimming pool was pretty small and more for looks than swimming. However, the dive center services were really great and worth checking out.

The swimming pool was quite small and could get crowded, but being so close to the beach meant I didn't mind using it just to cool off.

During my stay at Hotel Banana Boutique & Spa, I appreciated the cozy atmosphere and clean rooms, although the noise levels, especially at night, were quite bothersome. The location on 5th Avenue was perfect for accessing restaurants and the beach. However, the breakfast situation was disappointing, as it was quite basic and not offered on-site.

The hotel had essential facilities, but the housekeeping policy of changing towels every three days was inconvenient, and I faced issues with water supply during my stay.

My stay at Hotel Banana Boutique & Spa was a mix of highs and lows. The location was fantastic, close to the beach and many restaurants, making it easy to explore the area. However, the room conditions were subpar with issues like a faulty door lock and dirty towels. While the staff was friendly and the air conditioning worked well, the noise from nearby clubs made it hard to get a good night's sleep. Overall, it has potential but needs significant improvements. 🌴😕

My stay at Hotel Banana Boutique & Spa was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right on the famous 5th Avenue and just a short walk to the beach. However, I did face issues with noise during the night, making it difficult to sleep. The room was generally clean and had a boutique feel, but it was smaller than anticipated and lacked some basic comforts. Overall, while the staff were accommodating and friendly, there were definitely aspects of my stay that could be improved.
