HOTEL
We are staying in one of the rooms of Tres Hermanos. We’re loving it!! The rooms are simple, but all you need. Clean bathrooms and the best location ever. The restaurant isn’t cheap, but same price as the others in this area, and the food is really good. It’s really quiet, but more people come during the day. Go here if you want to treat yourself with pretty views
Went here for two beers in the afternoon, and stayed for a couple of hours drinking more beers and eating delicious nacho’s and quesadillas. The beers and food were cheap. Very friendly staff, and stunning views. We definetely would go again
This review is not for the hostel. We only tried the beach bar and restaurant and loved it - simply the best, in Playa Maderas and beyond.
The tacos and quesadillas are mouthwatering. Fish and seafood are so fresh. Ask for the lobster if it’s available. Since I left the town I’ve had a hard time finding that taste. Juices, smoothies and cocktails are all excellent. I was a bit disappointed they always run out of coconut water when other neighbouring bars have them all the time, but all alternatives weren’t bad. Prices are reasonable. Cards are accepted.
There’s something special about the atmosphere. Always welcoming and vibrant, a go-to place for locals at the end of the day for meals, drinks and unforgettable sunsets. So easy to meet people. Other bars look kind of nicer and with more comfy seating, so visitors tend to miss out on this spot which keeps it authentic.
Thank you Carlos and everyone for the friendly service. Miss you all - can’t wait to come back!
While this beach is amazingly beautiful and surf paradise it is a shame that this hostel / bar allows so many trash around it. The sunset is sooo beautiful. However, yoy see so much plastic close to the bar and no one doing anything, also no trash cans anywhere. This beach should be a reserve and only conscious people should be allowed to run any business here.
This place is a rip-off. They make prices up at the spot and try to overcharge you. Quite aggressive in trying to get you inside. If you want to use the chairs or one of the umbrellas on the beach you have to pay a lot extra.
Drinks were nice and cold though.
They rent surf boards here which were fine. But the staff in the restaurant all they do is shout at each other the whole time. You can rent umbrellas here
I got threatened with a baseball bat!! (by a guy called David who works there)
Rented a surfboard in the shop belonging to this bar, all easy. Later that day, one of the guys from the shop was surfing with me on a party-wave, hit himself with his board and got a cut next to his eye. Helped him out, continued surfing. Later one of the guys from the shop came to me, said I should follow him because there is a problem. All of a sudden I was with him and 4 other guys behind the building, they blamed me for the accident (I dont know if that is ehat their friend told them or if they made it up) and wanted several hundred dollars from
me for medical costs. I told them that I was sorry, that from my view it was his fault and that I wont pay. Then they told me that they will break my nose, so I gave back the surfboard, told my girlfriend about the situation and we left. They came after us with motircycles and a baseball bat, shouting and threatening us several times until we faked a police call and they went back.
Long story short, we were very lucky, very high aggressive potential, I wouldnt want to deal with them again.

Just sketch and shady, I rarely leave google reviews, but a place that makes up prices (even though you have a menu with listed prices in front of you), and lies through their teeth doesn't deserve a steady stream of business, but unfortunately there are few options on the beach to choose from. Basically this place will lie and make up excuses as to why your bill makes no sense, it happened to me, and I witnessed it happen to the guy sitting next to us as well. I don’t go out to eat so I can fight about prices on a bill, or feel conned into ordering more expensive items on the menu cause you claim you’re out of this and then the table next to us is eating what you’re out of.
The pina colada was perfect. Great little spot to watch surfers or read a book. The hubby rented a board here and I spent a few hours watching. The service was quick and extremely friendly. My only complaint is that the bathrooms were gross with no place to wash your hands. The prices are high here so would expect better conditions. Great vibe tho.
I ordered a round of beers inside and was intentionally over charged, when I confronted the manager he didn’t even try to hide the fact.
My friend went for the next round and they did the same thing. We then got our other friend to test it out and they tried to rip her off as well.
This place is scamming people, stay away!
