Absolutely everything is cleaned to a very high standard every single day. The pool is gorgeous and always very quiet. The host is friendly but stays out of the way. The grounds are beautiful, so many gorgoeus plants and trees. We also had a sloth come by our terrace as well which was really cool!

“SCAM.Avoid...they charge your bank card after you leave for "broken" plastic jugs and "other" items.”
The size of the room was good and the cleaners were amazing.

“Highly recommended, loved it here”
My partner and I loved our stay here! We wish we could stayed longer. It’s such a beautiful, relaxing & spacious place. The hosts were lovely and helpful. Will definitely come back and recommend to others. It’s about a 10 minute walk into town.

“Clean, spacious and a nice pool. Ideal base for going out and about.”
Ideal location if you don’t mind a short ride to restaurants, based just outside the heart which is ideal for being away from the noisy bars. Clean rooms, nice pool, staff very helpful and responsive

“Beautiful oasis of tranquility”
La Tica y La Gata is a beautiful home from home. Lush planting ensures privacy, the staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful, and the apartments are super clean and well-equipped. Stella (the owner) was delightful, ensuring our stay was comfortable, sharing local recommendations of places to visit, and making a special effort to let us know when a sloth made an appearance!

“Nice property with nice staff and clean facilities.”
The staff at La Tica y La Gata were friendly and helpful, and the pool is great. The general grounds of the property are very well kept and tropical, we even saw a sloth hanging out in a tree on the grounds! It's located an easy 15 minute walk from the town, and the room is very clean with a shared outdoor terrace which was tranquil and relaxing. The air-con unit in the room is very powerful!
