“Charming cabinas set in a jungle garden”
Everything. The grounds are lovely with casitas situated along garden paths and streams. There are also rooms around the pool that provide more options. The breakfast was delicious. The staff extremely helpul and nice. We enjoyed using the pool after the beach. There's a number of good restaurants nearby. We really loved being there and will definitely be back!

The hotel had a lovely garden with a pool and lots of bird-life which made it a very pleasant place to stay. Both the unusual sounds of the Dawn Chorus every day and constant sound of the cicadas - once the day warms up, right through to dusk - will remain in the memory! Jolana who manages the hotel was friendly and gave us some useful tips and also Fred, a great taxi driver, as we didn’t have a car.

“Tiny, tiny room, Way overpriced, old, and LOUD”
Breakfast was OK, but nothing special. Fruit, regular white toast, eggs, rice, and beans. The grounds of the hotel were really nice. You are surrounded by nature with a creek nearby. The pool was small but the pool area was nice to spend time in.

“Would return if in the area”
Breakfast was superb as was the pool that we had to ourselves. Plus the best two restaurants in the country are just down the road.

Breakfast was great with fresh fruits and a few choices. The pool was nice, and the property was beautiful and full of vegetations and birds. Good restaurants nearby.
