Hotel Aruma Ha

Be prepared to be scammed by invented "tourists taxes." If you talk to other tourists and locals on the island, you will find out there is no such thing, certainly not to the extent that is charged. Bring an extra 500-1000 pesos in cash and see if you can get a receipt. A raccoon family lives there, don't be afraid of them. People feed them so they are comfortable around people (they don't have rabies!). If you leave food in your garbage can outside your door, they will probably visit, and who can blame them.

4 days before arrival we tried to change the booking owing to a personal tragedy. The owner and *********** suggested that the other party was responsible. As it transpired the owner could have given permission to waive the booking but CHOSE not to. I was able to travel and found the hotel of poor quality for the amount charged. The only saving Grace was the manageress Rebekah who was extremely helpful.

Location is ok, nice and quiet. You can walk to the beach and centre, but I would advice you to rent a bike. They also rent bikes, but very crappy ones to be honest. Also bring your own lights if possible. Because at night biking with those bad roads is handy. We had the upper room. The beds sleeps good. The showerhead needs to be replaced. It went all over the bathroom.

Lovely hostess, clean and comfortable rooms, good distance to the noisy parties of the city. The hostess is extremely helpful and creates a lovely atmosphere. The premises are cozy and tastefully decorated. Would Definitely recommend.

WE WERE ROBBED. A male housekeeper BROKE INTO A HOTEL SAFE and took all our money! After that he quit. Before coming here we got a note via *********** messenger that we should bring cash as there is difficult to use credit cards in the restaurants and bars and that ATM many times run out of money. So we did. When checking in the manager specifically said to put all money and valuables in the hotel safe. So we did. On the 2nd day we came back to the hotel and found the doors of our room widely open. The manager apologised that an employee that was cleaning the rooms unexpectedly quit while cleaning our room. We were shocked that they did not at least close the doors of the room as we had laptops in and other valuables inside the room. After a couple of hours we needed the cash and tried to open a hotel safe but the lock was stuck. It was working perfectly in the morning and that made us feel a bit uncomfortable. After numerous tries to open it we contacted the manager and we tried to open in together with her key copies. She brought all copies of all the safes in the hotel and we tried one by one. No luck. The maintenance personnel came and forced open the hotel safe. The passports were in, Euros were still in, but ALL US DOLLARS WERE GONE. After that we were dealing with the police until early hours of the morning and when coming back to the hotel we found the copies of all hotel safe keys still on the fence of our door accessible to anyone! They do not care about the safety at all! The whole time staying here (5 nights) we were dealing with the police, the owner and the manager. The manager and the owner handled the situation very badly. I am still shocked by the lack of help they offered us. They did not clean our room the whole time, did not give us clean towels, no eye contact, turning away from us as soon as we stepped into the hotel premisses. In the end we felt like we were the the guilty ones. We are utterly disappointed.

Hola!!! Gracias por ser pet friendly y aceptarnos con nuestro perrito !!! Nos encantó visitar Aruma Ha!! Estaba súper cerca del mercado y de la zona centro así que pudimos movernos sin tener que tomar taxi, aunque son cabañas muy sencillas la atención estuvo excelente y pudimos adquirír una de sus promociones y nos salió a súper buen precio !!! Muchas gracias!

Un hotel muy bonito, relajate y amigable Las instalaciones, el lugar y el servicio son muy buenos en general nos encantó. El único detalle que tuvimos es que no siempre hay alguien para darte la atención 24hras, o al menos no físicamente, recomiendo que antes de llegar hagas una llamada o le mandes un what's a tu contacto para que te reciban, nos pasó a nosotros y una pareja más que tuvimos que esperar afuera un buen rato para que nos abrieran ya qué no siempre hay alguien en la recepción. Pero ya estando ahí, incluso el recepcionista nos ayudo a contactar a quien renta las bicicletas y nos las llevaron hasta el hotel sin tener que regresar caminando al centro por ellas, y uno de los mejores detalles es que aceptan mascotas para que no los dejen solos en casa 🥰

Todo súper padre, lo disfruté muchísimo. Una excelente opción para hospedarme con mi pareja. Me encantaron las instalaciones y el servicio todos muy amables . Definitivamente regresaré muy pronto 10/10
