What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Exquisite Culinary Experience

The food at Unico is simply excellent! Every meal I had, especially at the Italian restaurant, was absolutely delicious. I was particularly impressed with the culinary excellence at Mi Carisa where I savored the avocado toast for breakfast. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised by the overall food quality, which far surpassed many other all-inclusive experiences we've had.

Stunning Room Amenities

My partner and I stayed in a spacious ocean view room, complete with a lovely terrace that featured a well-designed outdoor tub. The décor was modern and elegant, making it a perfect romantic getaway. I loved how comfortable the beds were and the pillow menu added an extra touch of luxury. Each night, we enjoyed turning down our room to the wonderful ambiance it offered.

Fun Entertainment Options

The variety of entertainment available at Unico was a good surprise! From engaging evening shows that highlighted local culture to fun activities like mixology classes, there was never a dull moment. Each day offered something new, and I especially enjoyed the hydro yoga class which I found to be both fun and relaxing.

Heavenly Spa Experience

The spa at Unico was a major highlight of our stay. We indulged in a couple's massage and utilized the hydrotherapy circuit beforehand. The serene environment and skilled therapists made it a revitalizing experience. I highly recommend taking advantage of the spa services during your visit—it truly enhanced our relaxation and enjoyment of the vacation.

Overall, my stay at the resort had its highs and lows. The service from staff was exceptional, making everything feel special, and the pools were enjoyable.

The location has its perks but is not directly ideal for beach walks due to the rocky shoreline. There are amenities nearby, but not much in the way of local exploration.

While there was good food overall, nothing stood out as particularly remarkable—except for the pizza and tacos near the pool, which were fantastic. The dining experience could use more variety.
