Best beachfront resort in the island.”

This resort has the best location in the island! The beach is beautiful compared to other resorts where there are a lot of boats. I did a land tour and saw other beaches but I can tell that Avila's location was really the greatest. The people are very very nice and easy to talk to. Very hospitable and will assist you proactively. Stay for a longtime and they start treating you as if your already family. I had the best time here!

Best Beach location! Great Staff”

Highlights: They have the best beach location in the Island. unlike the bounty beach, this resort is all by itself and there were no boats parked on the beach while you swim. The area is peaceful since there are no other resorts nearby. the locals are friendly too. Lowlights: the only sad part is that it is a bit far from town, so if you want to buy or eat other food or when going to and from the port you have to ride a motorcycle going to town that would take you about 15-20mins. but hey, it's all worth it. you can bring your own food and they won't mind, just be kind enough to clean as you go. :) you can even have a local motorist have you deliver your requested essentials from town. will definitely be going back. PS. scary experience, the TV in our room turned on in the middle of the night!!!

Super loved their hotel especially the beachfront, it has a powdery white sand. We stayed their during the pandemic. The place is quiet & homey. It was a bit far from the barrio and other hotels, but this is the reason why we loved it even more. We didn’t want to leave yet. We enjoyed star gazing. The room is great for families. It has spacious bunk beds. They also provided toiletries and towels, and offers tours. If you want to disconnect from the world, this is the place since there is no globe service. But, smart network has a little bit of signal. Also, the staffs are accommodating. They also offered us a welcome drink. Thank you for providing us a great place to stay in the island! 🤍🌊☀️
