This review is for both the RV camping site and restaurant, and some notes on kiteboarding.
We used Hotel Serenidad's RV camping on our drive to La Ventana early January 2017. I liked that it was a walled-in compound. It felt secure. Water, sewer, and electrical all worked. We ate dinner at the hotel restaurant. It was ok, but I wish we had ventured out and eaten somewhere with a five star Yelp review. The staff was nice. The fireplace was lit and felt warm and inviting. There wasn't much going on, so we played some Ping-Pong to prepare for Beer Pong Championships of the World of La Ventana the following week. The hotel grounds were quiet and intimate. The pool looked nice.
I kiteboard for fun and was able to drive my 24' RV around the outside perimeter of the hotel and along the riverfront road to a small public beach. The little beach had small palapas, It is east of the hotel and the small air strip that sits next door to the east of the hotel. Although the kiteboarding was only for advanced kiteboarders, due to the fact the launch was on the leeward side of the hill, I was able to work my way out to open water and clean air. On my return I had to land about 1/2 mile down wind of the launch due to the absence of wind. The water was filthy on the inside at the launch and land, as the current carries the water southward as it dumps in from the river mouth.
The RV campground is small. It would benefit from upgraded electrical connectors. All the electrical outlets were standard home 110 volt. Not designed to accommodate a standard RV plug, nor the amperage, correctly.
