Bottom Line

Scene
Modern hotel on the seafront
Blue-tinted glass rails on room balconies and outdoor spiral staircases give ALEGRIA Maripins hotel a distinct and modern look. The lobby is basic and simple, with tile floors and somewhat dated furniture -- this space is not as modern or polished as the rooms. The atmosphere is relaxed, especially in the outdoor pool area and open-air porch with wicker chairs. The hotel provides evening entertainment including Brazilian night and flamenco dancing, and there’s a kids' club with an indoor area where children’s colorful artwork on coloring book pages lines the walls. The beach is just across the street and train tracks, but guests warn that it’s not a great spot for small children as there is a sharp drop-off into the ocean.
