When trying to decide where to stay in San Pedro I had very little information on this hotel . I searched the internet Instagram Facebook YouTube, for realistic pictures and guest reviews and found very few. But I am so happy with my accommodations and stay that I just wanted to let others know so that they will have an easier time choosing this hotel. Just returned from a 5 night stay at this hotel. We were very pleasantly surprised. The hotel is located at the edge of town in a quiet section. Actually right next to the Alia Hotel. You will need a golf cart. This appears to be a new hotel and I believe some apartments are privately owned. The entrance is unassuming but well kept and the lobby is small and clean. There is a water cooler there for guests to refill water bottles of which we were given 4. There are ground, second floor and third floor rooms. There is an elevator for those on the 3rd floor but if your room is on the second floor you will have to take a short set of stairs to your room. There are supermarkets near by to purchase what ever you need. There is also a restaurant next door that they recommend to guests while they prepare their restaurant for opening Check in was quick, we were helped with our luggage and given clear instructions by the friendly staff. We stayed in a second floor 1 bedroom king ocean front room. The room was clean with modern furnishings. The kitchenette had a stove full size refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker, dishes a roll of paper towel dish washing soap, pots and utensils. This was more than adequate for us. The AC units in the living room and bedroom were great. The view from the room was awesome. There is not really a beach to walk out to there was a pier to sit on . There are 2 pools. On our visit the hotel was very quiet. We did not have to scramble for pool chairs or beach chairs. I loved this hotel. It was new clean affordable and my room was excellent. I will be staying there on my next visit.

“Bananas was the perfect choice for my first vacation in over 20 years”

Bananas on the Beach was just what I was looking for. Not overcrowded like a lot of the big name resort chains. Not a hole in the wall either. It's small enough to let you embrace the idea of, "island time"; while helping you enjoy everything ypu wnt to do. From the moment I booked it, their team d… Mehr

Bananas on the Beach was just what I was looking for. Not overcrowded like a lot of the big name resort chains. Not a hole in the wall either. It's small enough to let you embrace the idea of, "island time"; while helping you enjoy everything ypu wnt to do. From the moment I booked it, their team did an amazing job seeing to whatever it was I wanted to do. From the concierge staff, to housekeeping, to the ladies behind the bar, the maintenance and security; they all had amazing suggestions for whatever it was I was looking for. And with the new addition of Gonzalo and the Princess (the hotel's newest fine dining experience) , it's perfect.

My stay at Bananas on the Beach was okay overall. The location is fantastic—right by the beach, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The rooms were clean and comfortable, so no complaints there. However, the experience at the front desk was disappointing. The two ladies at reception were unhelpful and seemed uninterested in assisting guests. Anytime I asked for information about taxis, golf carts, or local recommendations, their response was either dismissive or vague. They often claimed nothing was available and seemed eager to cut the conversation short. Thankfully, there was another staff member—possibly a manager—who was much more helpful and accommodating. He made an effort to assist whenever he could, which I appreciated. Overall, while the location and accommodations were great, the unhelpful reception staff left a sour impression. Replacing or better training those two receptionists would significantly improve the guest experience.
