Ren Resort

A perfect place for leisure for both family and couple Great location, very friendly staffs. A beach and sea are just a cross-street in front of the hotel. The reasonable price in this city and the beautiful room with a blue crystal clear cool swimming pool. Highly recommended for all locals and foreigners.

This trip was basically a reconnoissance run to see what had become of Otres2 beach. Before 2020, this was an excellent destination for a beach vacation. In late 2019, the government widened and paved the beach road (now four-lane highway) and reclaimed beachfront and restaurants from the hotels. The restaurant is now effectively closed, serving a mediocre breakfast to guests. Not sure what happens after that. It used to be our go-to for dinner, and that expectation was the main reason for staying there this time. Desk is sporadically manned by very pleasant and helpful staff with limited English. Public areas are clean and well maintained with a few poolside lounge chairs. Beachfront room was pleasant, some problems with water and hot water were promptly attended to. Aircon good. View was basically the road with beach in background. Shower floor was dangerously slippery. No particular reason for a tourist to stay there now that it is no longer a beachfront resort.
