“One of Isla's only luxury boutique hotels. A hidden gem with infinity pool overlooking its own private beach. The chic modern rooms boast floor to ceiling windows and original artworks, and the hotel has its own exclusive beach house. The new bar serves up dangerously good Margaritas.”

Hotel review

A modern white cubist building, Secreto would be so much more appealing were it not hemmed in by less attractive developments. Nevertheless, the hotel has received a huge amount of press coverage and there’s no doubt that the rooms are stylish with four-poster beds, crisp white linen, limestone floors and huge mirrors inside and huge day-beds on the balconies that overlook the beach, infinity pool and bar area below.
