While the room itself was beautiful and the views were enjoyable, our stay at The Sitio was extremely disappointing.
The biggest issue was a terrible sewer odor coming from the bathroom drain. The smell was so strong that it resembled a men's urinal in a dive bar. Staff came to the room and poured Pine-Sol down the drain, but unfortunately it did little to eliminate the odor. The smell permeated the entire room, making it difficult to relax or sleep. My husband and I ended up sleeping with the sheets pulled over our noses just to tolerate it.
To make matters worse, around 2:00 a.m. we had to call the front desk because of excessive noise right outside our door. For a boutique hotel, we expected a more peaceful and upscale experience.
The room was also missing some basic conveniences, such as a full-length mirror, which would have been helpful when getting ready to go out.
I will say that the staff was very kind and watching the surfers from the property was a highlight of our trip. However, those positives couldn't outweigh the unpleasant odor, lack of sleep, and overall experience.
Unfortunately, I would not recommend staying here. The beautiful aesthetics simply don't make up for the significant comfort and maintenance issues we encountered.
