Polished terracotta and rounded archways create a Spanish atmosphere and similar decor filters into the adorable rooms, which sport touches including pebbled bathroom walls and translucent bamboo lamps. Hacienda Suites, the overflow property a few doors along, has smaller, cheaper rooms that are mostly windowless, but still clean and comfortable. The tiny rooftop pool has gorgeous ocean views.
