Matapala Hotels from S$84

"The room says view to the garden but we didn´t have that, very small frigde in one of the rooms"

"Clean rooms and facilities. Friendly and helpful staff. Good selection of food for AI. Beautiful beach. Walking distance to small plazas with restaurants and shops as well as to Marinas."

"Let’s start with the pros: Nice and cozy homely place Not too crowded Nice beach Nice staff Now cons: Chef Christian was horrible, not cooperative even with kids Refused to let us take a jelly sandwich for a full day tour Front staff won’t allow outside cabs if you don’t hire their recommended services Water was not sufficient or bottles not available anywhere on the property "

"sort of a run down hotel. showers were "

"The place is basically Costa Rica on a budget . The amenities are ok . The rooms are down a hill that you have to wait for a car to come get you or you walk which is very inconvenient especially if you are with children because having to go up and down to go eat etc . The food is not great and very limited it’s basically 2 proteins some rice and salad . Not really buffet at all . More like school cafeteria style . If your looking to just stay at the hotel I wouldn’t recommend but if you need somewhere cheap to stay and your gonna eat out etc then it’s a good spot to stay. Also the rooms are clean and staff is friendly and very helpful. Pool is nice too and the view is great "

"Staff were wonderful! Terrific vacation!"

"Room was dirty. No hot water. Couldn’t get bottled water check in was a nightmare as well as checkout "

"The restaurant seating system is the worst I’ve seen. You have to line up at 5:10 to even get a table at any point that night. Old school magnetic stripe room keys frequently de-magnetize. Rooms are dated. Staff is great. "

"The front desk staff go above and beyond anytime I have stayed here. They were so helpful with my pets and baggage (I was overwhelmed with a new rescue puppy and my other dog and suitcases). Also I love their breakfast buffet! Quick tip- if you take the super early shuttle to check in at the airport you can take it back for a quick breakfast. :) All in all i absolutely love this hotel and all its staff. Highly highly recommend. "
