There is such an array of amazing boutique hotels to stay in SMA, that it made it hard to choose. Because we were going during a warm period, we decided to pick a hotel with a pool to cool off in during the afternoons. However, this was only a small part of why we love this hotel soooo much. We were concerned that it was slightly out of town, however, the 10-15 min walk into town was part of the charm. We felt safe at all times and it was an easy walk thru beautiful and colorful streets, ones that we might have missed if we stayed smack in the middle of town. It was also super easy to take an Uber and less than $5. The pool area was dreamy... comfortable lounges, day beds (no upcharge), perfect temperature pool and beautiful views. I will mention that we were there for four days and on Saturday, the pool vibe became a party atmosphere with a DJ, which was fun. The other days it was more subdued. Also, there are kids at this resort and in the pool. Usually we stay at an all adults, but the kids were fine and did not deter from the vibe of the hotel. The grounds are breathtaking, well taken care of and the staff exceptional. I would highly recommend that you partake in the breakfast each day. Beautiful atmosphere in the courtyard and scrumptious local food. We at the the Spice restaurant too for lunch, beautiful patio, delicious food, but a bit of small portions for the price paid. We also went to the cigar bar late at night for a nightcap. No cigars were being smoked, but the vibe was super cool and a fun way to end the night. We LOVED our room. I highly recommend that you get the Sundeck Suite category room. Well worth the upgraded price. The views, private patio with daybed and access to the pool was invaluable. The room itself was stunning. Clean, beautifully decorated and had a great bed. We visited some other high end hotels in town (Rosewood...) and Live Aqua was so much more impressive. Don't hesitate to book here, you will have no regrets.
