Fodor's Expert Review Siesta Suites

The owners keep a close eye on this four-story hotel—a calm refuge two blocks from the marina—and dispense great insider advice to visitors. The simply furnished rooms have kitchenettes with full-size refrigerators, two queens or king beds on cement platforms, and living rooms with wide padded couches, so if necessary, there's room to sleep quite a crew. Included are free Wi-Fi, cable TV, and coffee and tea in the lobby. Rooms have balconies and there's a sundeck on every floor. If your budget allows, opt for the penthouse suite with an incredible view. Salvatore's Restaurant, an Italian eatery, is situated around a tiny plunge pool; it's widely acclaimed by resident gringos in the know.
