“Posada Dakema has apartments with plenty of beds, ideal for families or groups. The hotel sits a little outside the central tourist area, though a short taxi or Uber ride will get you there; the airport proximity and beach access are definite pluses. While the immediate neighborhood has a more local feel, I think the friendly staff and secure premises create a welcoming atmosphere.”
