What Not to Expect

checkmark
Direct beachfront access

The hotel is not directly on the beach. It’s a short walk or drive down the hill to Playa Espadilla.

checkmark
Large resort atmosphere

La Mariposa is a boutique property, so it lacks the extensive amenities of a large resort.

checkmark
Ultra-modern design

While elegant and well-maintained, the style is classic rather than ultra-modern or trendy.

Our agent made our honeymoon stress-free and fun! She was available throughout, even when I felt unwell early in the trip. Her support and great recommendations helped us feel better fast. So grateful for the special touches she added along the way.
