Beautiful place in a stumning setting. Main problem was the quality of food at the restaurant that used too much grease in everything. The hotel was hard to get to, having to cross three rivers so could get stuck with flooding. It was definitely great value. Would stay here again

So what to say about Magnific rock...firstly don't be fooled by the pics. The rooms that are not the nice apartment are basically only run down shacks, some with broken doors and other doors just old and in need of replacement. The staff are friendly, although I'm pretty sure one of the bartenders stiffed me 200 cordobas after I asked him to change a $20 bill. My fault I guess for being so trusting. I haven't gotten to the good part yet...The room we had was relatively new but with some questionable construction. I noticed very large and active red ants in the room. The worst part though, it felt like a kennel. 4 or 5 dogs roam round the property, unattended, and if they don't like you, will bark like hell when as they did to us when we were going back to our bedrooms one night from having dinner. Scared the hell out of us. But wait, I havent mentioned the cats. Unless they are there as rat deterrents, they keep 2 cats in the DINING area, yes the dining area, that will hound you for food until you leave. But the worst part, the first evening we ate there, the unmistakable smell of cat urine engulfed us while we were having dinner. We even smelled it one night out on the balcony when trying to enjoy sounds of the ocean. I get that its great for surfing and all I suppose and the views of the ocean are great, but is it worth it? Even getting there was risky as you have to pass to 'rivers' that could easily make a small compact stall if it rains too much.

Beautiful spot. Old hostel
We enjoyed our stay. The building is old and a little dusty. Restaurant good but a little pricey and one of only a few options to eat at. Beautiful spot. Peaceful and quiet. Perfect sunset.
