Our stay at Mantra Sun City was quite disappointing, with a mix of minor positives and significant negatives.

5.8/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the location was excellent; it was just a short walk to the beach, and the ocean view from my apartment was spectacular. The staff were engaging and very knowledgeable. However, I was disappointed with the condition of the room, as it did not match the images online, and cleanliness was a significant issue. Overall, it could be a nice place, but it needs a lot of updates and better maintenance.

Mantra Sun City is a delightful choice for families, boasting amazing pools and spacious apartments with stunning ocean views. The location is just a block from the beach, making it convenient to explore. However, some service aspects could be improved, and dining options were slightly lacking on our visit. Overall, it's a great spot, especially if you're traveling with kids.

The facilities were quite good, with a large pool area and plenty of loungers. The outdoor pool was very cold, but there was a smaller warm spa pool that we loved!

I had a really disappointing experience during my stay. While the view from the apartment was stunning, the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the room were subpar. The air conditioning was filthy, and the furnishings were outdated. It's frustrating to see such potential wasted when the management clearly isn't keeping up with the property.
