Don Pancho is in a great location with easy access to the beach. We were upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment which had recently been renovated and it was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The staff were lovely and acted quickly to fix a blocked vanity.

The location, direct on the beach so great views. Also relaxing at the pool was great. We only had a small studio but that was very nicely decorated. You can see that a lot of effort has been put in to make it all look beautiful and some areas they are still working on but that didnt impact our stay.
