“Great facilities and a lovely chill atmosphere, although I cut my stay short as not much to do in the area.”
The kitchen had very good facilities. And the rooms were kept clean. A locker is given to you on arrival which was very handy

“Good value for money but no air conditioning.”
Very good location, close to city center and plenty of restaurants in Cahuita. Entry to the national park is just behind the corner. Shower was nice, strong and hot which was a big advantage. Area in the property was nice for chilling.

“Run-down room, only the location and the garden were nice: Definitely no recommendation”
The location and the garden were nice. The accommodation is right in the center of Cahuita, just a few minutes away by foot from the entrance of Cahuita national park. In the garden of the accommodation you could see a sloth, aguti and huge black grasshoppers.

“Great!”
I’ve stayed here twice now, once in the all female dorm, and once in a standard double pod - both stays were lovely. Thank you very much to the girl at reception who was so patient and helpful discussing bus information! Nice shared showers for both rooms, but I especially loved the ones for the pod room 😍

“Love it!”
The concept is great, we loved the cabins and environment, closer to the beach and markets. This is the second time we stay here and would do it again if there is a chance. Alyson is really kind and always willing to help and share information to have a better stay.
