The location cannot be beat! Close to so many restaurants and bars if you are looking to get off the resort. Loved the pools and the iguana’s that hung out around them.
We absolutely loved our stay at Kontiki Beach Resort. The rooms are beautiful and our view was fantastic. We especially loved the little private plunge pool on the deck — it made the stay feel extra special. The beach area is very lively with great restaurants, beach clubs, and plenty of shopping nearby, so there is always something to do. Just be prepared for loud music on Wednesday nights due to the beach club events, but aside from that it was a wonderful stay and we would definitely come back.
The staff at
The Kontiki was VERY helpful when we needed transportation to the different off-site locations and to the airport. They were very knowledgeable about the excursions, also. There was a bus to take to us and bring us back from the local market, free of charge.
There is so much to do on this resort. There are restaurants, shops, entertainment. The scenery is BEAUTIBUL!!. we do plan to return in the future!
Beautiful room. Had a huge balcony overlooking one of the pools on property. It was nice to sit out there in the morning and evening! Beach was gorgeous! If I had a complaint it would be that some chairs were reserved for cruise passengers over hotel guests. They still had plenty for guests but the ones sectioned off were prime seats! We only went to our beach one day so it wasn’t a big deal! It is a party hotel, our room was far away from the party and didn’t really bother us! We would stay again!
Very beautiful and relaxing. Expect some pretty noisy evevings as the bars and restaurants are quite near the resort units.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff was warm and very friendly. We stayed in the tiki styled rooms which I found dated. The one problem I had was amenities, i.e., laundry facilities, if I’m going to spend a week at a beach resort, I would love to not have to pay $4 to wash the sand out of my bathing suits. They could also benefit from a partnership with a livery service. I don’t drive when I’m vacationing, especially in a foreign country. There’s no way to get away from the resort except very expensive cabs.
Clean and beautiful room. We had the Sea-view Suite with the private plunge pool. The housekeeping staff took great care of us. Everyone was very friendly
The kontiki resort was absolutely amazing it was beautiful and the staff were so welcoming. Check in was very smooth and we were greeted with fresh coconuts, I have zero complaints about the kontiki resort. However my one and only complaint would be to not eat the ceviche at mood beach it got me absolutely sick and I was throwing up all night long every hour. The fish must have been old and I did not appreciate getting served that. Other than that the beaches were beautiful and easily accessible from The Kontiki.
Wow is all I can say! I absolutely loved this hotel. I stayed in the Beachfront Suite and was completely obsessed. The room was stunning, and I couldn’t help but lounge in my private pool most days. Beyond the beauty of the space, the service was top-notch. Everyone at the hotel was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive. They were also very responsive to all my requests via WhatsApp, which made everything so easy and convenient. Overall, I highly recommend staying here for a truly relaxing getaway.
Loved my stay at the Kontiki! The workers were nice, very friendly. Private pools kept clean. The beach clubs and restaurants nearby are easy to navigate!
Parking was easy enough and not too far from the room. The staff was absolutely amazing, friendly, courteous and helpful with recommendations for doing things in the area. I highly recommend The Kontiki Beach Resort ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
