Dazzler by Wyndham Puerto Madryn

We have just spent 3 nights at the Dazzler and can't fault it. We has an Ocean View room which gave us many views of whales in the bay. The room was very spacious, clean and fresh and met all our needs. We ate in the hotel restaurant (Coiron) twice. It is very popular, open to non-residents and reservations are essential. The food is excellent. A special "Thank You" should go to Julieta on the front desk for her fluent English and for being extremely helpful and welcoming. All in all...a great location and a great stay.

We have rather mixed feelings about this hotel. The location is great right on the beach. You can park on the road, or they have a garage if you prefer for a small fee. The room was comfortable and had a huge balcony, but you had to get deckchairs from reception as there was nothing on the balcony. Reception was friendly and helpful Room had a kettle and a fridge. If the aircon is wrong you call reception and they change it for you, but did this as soon as you asked. Downside – lots of steps up to the front entrance and even from the car park 6 steps to climb up. Not sure how anyone infirm would cope and we struggled with our suitcases. Shower had plenty of power, but constantly varied from cold to very hot. It was impossible to adjust to get a stable temperature. Breakfast had a fair choice, but the scrambled eggs were cold and I asked for Tabasco or piccata sauce, but they didn’t have any and the breakfast staff were clearly totally uninterested in serving guests.

We had a wonderful sea view from our room on the 9th floor which enhanced our stay. The large room was well equipped and comfortable with safe and minibar and huge bed. Reception was welcoming and helpful . Breakfast , which has been criticised before, was extensive and of high quality. We took advantage of the 20% discount and had an evening meal. It was delicious and of good quality but even with the discount was more than we would normally pay. Highly recommended.
