Mins: 1- 4th floor without lift. All 3 lifts were broken. 2- Italian ambiance. If you are not italian you dont belong 3- Very unfriendly management 4- Animation is there just to extract something from you 5- Totally isolated. Absolutely nothing to do around, do not go there without a car 6- Very run down 7- No beach (there are... More

This is a basic resort to just relax. We had a one-bedroom, but they put us in a suite. We stayed in it, because of the view. The staff speaks very little English. The resort is the nicest thing in the local area. They have no beach; we needed to walk down the beach to the next resort to use... More

Albatross, Juan Dolio We moved to this hotel after staying at the Plaza Real Resort, which was the right move for us. At the Albatross we had a great view of the pool and ocean, and we just wanted to chill out for a couple days so this was nice for us. It was still early-mid Nov and the resort... More

A beautiful wide beach runs from what looks like the original Juan Dolio town, east for 4 Km. The Albatros Resort is 1/2 Km east of that. The Resort has a man made beach that does not actually touch the Ocean. It is nice though.... it is like a private beach, but with no water access. The grounds are very... More

Just returned from the Albatros and would visit again. The unit itself was shabby and badly in need of an update, however, it was clean. I enjoyed the grounds and the pool (again in need of an update but clean). This is not a swimming beach but they do have a sand area before the rocks. Staff was very friendly... More

I got this resort on a timeshare exchange and would have never selected it had I known what I know now. First of all, the resort was not properly maintained by any means. The pool was dirty and had leaves and bugs in it. There is no beach behind the hotel but the volcanic rocks covering the coastline were covered... More

I booked this hotel quickly and using my phone. In hindsight, I should have done more research and not been so hasty. On the website I used, there were quite a few positive reviews. The photos of this hotel were very small, but they appeared to show a hotel with a nice pool area, right next to the beach, etc.... More

There is only one thing good at the Albatross....the nice fellow that runs the MiniMart food store. Without him there would have been no food or alcohol. No beach. No hot water. No a/c. Weak Internet connection. Pool was cloudy. Nothing close by. Sure the help was friendly but I didn't go there to be smiled at. No place to... More

I got this on timeshare exchange and never would have paid real money for it. I don't need much to have a nice time and the weather was great. Unit was Ok except bathroom was in desperate need of renovation and the AC unit on the balcony was on the blink and very loud. Outside areas and pool are nicely... More
