We really loved this hotel. We had booked a junior suite which we were under the impression had a bath which my husband prefers. In fact there is just a walk in shower. We were shown a superior double (with bath!) and decided to change. It was obviously smaller with less storage but had a lovely large balcony with table, chairs sun beds and parasol. We thoroughly enjoyed making good use of this. The room was comfortable and quiet. 
We thoroughly enjoyed the food. Great variety, good quality and piping hot.The service in the restaurant was excellent but you had no feeling of business or being rushed. 
All staff throughout the hotel were professional and efficient but also warm and friendly. 
I enjoyed the pool. Not heated as is the norm at this time of year but by late morning the sun had warmed it up enough to be pleasant. The sun beds are comfortable and sturdy-no tipping up if you sit on the wrong bit! They are closely packed but this is because there are so many of them and means you can always get one at any time. Around the hotel there are plenty of places to sit wether you want sun or shade. The air conditioned lounge by the pool was a great place to cool off while still feeling the holiday vibe. 
The evening entertainment was a highlight for us. The best we’ve experienced for a long time. The presence of the tireless hotel entertainment staff to facilitate and encourage certainly helped. The “Strictly Soul” guy on Sunday was exceptional. 
From check in to check out we had a great experience and left feeling relaxed and restored. We would definitely love to return some day. 

Perfect relaxing break 

I was in the midst of a month-long vacation to Peru when I stumbled upon this place in week three. I had been to Lima, Cusco, and Arequipa. I was beaten. I had planned a trip to the beach in Mancora, but, upon arrival the main drag was trash. I had booked a bad hostel right outside of the main strip. I quickly went to the web to find a more peaceful location. I booked with Punta Del Mar and was not disappointed. This is basically a private resort (about 15 or 16 rooms in all). The restaurant and bar are good enough to never leave. If you want to grab something different to eat you can hire one of the many tuk-tuk drivers to take you into town for 5 soles. There really is no reason to leave though. Beautiful location, beach, workers, and service.

What a great change of pace from the busting cities of Peru

It has been a total nightmare because of the unprofesional behavior of Patricia, the adminsitrator of the hostel. First, she booked the wrong room (one of them downstair with no privacy because everyone on the beach or on the terrace can see you on the room, which can be a problem when you are a young lady). Because of that when we arrived we spent 2h checking on their website which room were available because Patricia didn't care about finding a true solution and she even blamed us and said it was our fault. Finally we had to change of room twice and we spent our two last day in a dirty and noisy room next to some bulding work. When we left we asked for a little discount to compensate our bad experience, of course they refused and again Patricia was so unprofesional and even disrespectful with us because we were asking for a little discount. So please when you have a nice hotel be sur to employ profesional and decent employee. Because of Patricia it was a nightmare and apparently the manager and the owner James (you can find him on Airbnb) ofhe hostel didn't care.
To sump up the good point of the hotel is the location but the staff (above all Patricia) is not profesional and even disrespectful (only Patricia). The rooms on the beach (ocean view) are ok but the one on the main bulding in front of the pool are terrible and very expensive for what it is. One last advice : the food is awful, the fish and seafood are frozen and really bad and even the cocktails are not good (we tried the mojito and I even found some rice in my glass, so it definitly was the cherry on the cake).In 1 month we visited 11 hostels in Peru and it was the worst..
DON'T GO THERE!!!!

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER : DON'T GO THERE!!!!

This place was lovely. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and tidy and well presented. The food at the pool bar was really tasty. We had cocktails at the bar which were really nice. On our last day we managed to see whales whilst we were laid sunbathing by the pool. It's was an awesome experience! 

Beautiful, relaxing place! 

The best: waking up to the view. You literally see the beach at your feet. The pool was also great. Only con: the beach where the hotel is located is rocky, so I had to walk a few minutes to find a suitable place to swim. Other than that, excellent hotel.

Paradise

Beautiful and well-kept hotel. My friend, boyfriend and I stayed there during 3 nights on the first week of July 2014. The prices were pretty cheap (160 NS for a room with a balcony, hammock, cable tv, mini fridge and a lovely tub for two people; 100 NS for a simpler room without the tub, hammock and fridge). All rooms overlook the ocean and are around their beautiful pools. There is plenty of space for sun-bathing and hanging around under the palm trees or in their deck. The dining area is very spacious and also overlooks the beach and pools. It was much much more beautiful than expected and sooo comfortable. The rooms were cleaned and plenty of toiletries were given. The staff was not the friendliest, but we also didnt make an effort on talking much, since we just wanted to swim and rest. Out only complaint was the food. It was too simple, after a couple of days the included "american breakfast" got boring (same juice, same eggs, same bread every day), and the food presentation and taste was just ok. With so many wonderful options in Mancora town, we ended up just taking a mototaxi and enjoy the local cuisine. Also their wifi did not reach all of the rooms.
However I would definitely return to Punta del Mar and recommend it to my family and friends :)


Fantastic hotel but could improve food quality

Stayed at this hotel as part of a groupon offer. This was not a good deal. The breakfast was spartan and the rooms were not made up to an adequate standard (sand still on floors). The hotel seems to skimp on everything, including toiletries. Not a good hotel if you want to make this your pad e.g. a honey moon. Acceptable if you just need a bed.
