Summary: it was a fabulous time staying here in the Nomada Digital and Familar habitacion. Highly highly recommend this for couples or families wanting a peaceful getaway -- and more importantly ;) , an excellent choice for digital nomads looking for a peaceful place to stay and work!!
remote working: you can get away with booking a dorm etc and using the "rooftop"/upstairs lounge to remote work there. wifi is fast enough and the upstairs "lounge" is quiet (and empty hahah) enough that you can get work done -- and even take calls. There is tons of space to work and lounge. The two big tables have power outlets in/through the table. Rooftop lounge is shaded and comfy. wifi: 68Mbps -- appears to be Starlink. Wifi is very good from rooftop lounge and quite decent from room -- i was able to do all my video calls at all times of the day. there is also the bonus of that when there is a power outage, the wifi system seems to be able to run on solar power (according to staff), so while your devices might be limited on power (during outage), wifi is still working an absolute bonus for remote workers needing a reliable internet connection. cell service (Claro): I seem to have no cell service (therefore data) in my room especially, so hotspotting didn't seem to be an option in my room or the rooftop lounge. rooms: bed is very comfy and has mosquito netting, shower/bathroom is modern and clean. rooms have AC. Nomada Digital habitacion has very convenient reading lights on both sides of the bed. vibes: it was somewhat hard to make friends here, unless you lounged at the eating or rooftop area. Lots of couples and groups of friends. Not many solo travellers, except for a few gems

We booked the fancy looking deluxe bungalow but changed for our second night to the stone huts which have an air conditioning unit. The bungalow only had a fan. It also turned out that we payed 30k more than a standard bungalow because we had a 'minibar'. Well, that minibar is an empty small fridge... which we turned off as we had nothing to cool.|Breakfast, albeit a bit small is of good quality. Free coffee until the pot is empty...|During both afternoons it rained heavily which resulted in power cuts, leaving the airco useless. A generator kicks in to supply the kitchen and wifi. The kitchen is quite good as in the second night we had diner there. The rain made it more or less impossible to go out.|The bed in both rooms were small, with not very fit matrasses. During our whole trip in Colombia we only slepped in doubles that are maximum 140 cm wide. Why? Don't they make them any...

Customer service is top notch! Bryan was a pleasure to deal with and see everyday.
We did not have air conditioning in our bungalow but the fan was sufficient. The pool is just outside of the rooms, there’s a lovely common area/ working space above the bar and reception area. The breakfast is included and if meat was a part of it there was never any problem to ask for a brekkie without it.
The beach is a short walk away, there are also lots of restaurants a few mins from PS.
We organised a few activities with the help of Bryan which made it much easier for...
