We had a lovely stay at the Kontiki. The staff was kind and helpful. We stayed in a superior room which had plenty of space and a nice balcony looking out at a pool. The beach had comfortable chaise and the ocean was a beautiful teal blue. I highly recommend staying here.
Such a beautiful view while relaxing in the sun!

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.

We enjoyed 6 days at the Kontiki and are looking forward returning in the fall. The resort is beautiful and the accommodations were exceptional. If you want night life, the Kontiki has it. If you want R&R, you will find it at the Kontiki! The food was wonderful and there was a nice variety. Thank you to the staff for making our stay exactly what we hoped it would be.
Salt water pool running through the resort. Great for an afternoon swim.
