Set in a beautiful, quiet location.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms may be on the small side.
Guests who had rooms at the rear of the hotel said that the rooms were on the small side and a little dark with no views. However, they were still comfortable and clean. Guests are happier with the sea-view rooms as while these are still noted as being a little small, the view makes up for it.
negative:
Breakfast gets a thumbs down.
There are plenty of reviews which are not complimentary at all about the quality of the breakfast at Hotel Sipan, or indeed the food overall. It is suggested that guests are better off wandering into town to eat, simply because the food is better quality and better value for money.
negative:
Small showers.
The shower spaces do not get a good review, with guests saying that they are on the small side and a bit awkward to wash in. Strangely, some guests have said that this is despite the fact the bathrooms in general are nice and roomy.
