    We were impressed by the beautiful woodwork, lush gardens, and colorful flowers at this charming property. the staff was incredibly helpful and the breakfast served was delicious. As adults, we appreciated the option to store our bags in a secure locker room and even take a shower after checking out. the property also had covered parking, which was a nice bonus.

    We enjoyed our stay at this venue. The location is ideal, just a short walk from the beach, and the hotel amenities are great. The staff is welcoming and helpful, providing recommendations for local activities and restaurants. The garden area is beautiful and a great place to relax in the hammocks. The cabins are private and comfortable, with plenty of space for two people. we highly recommend this hotel to others looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

    I loved staying at this hotel! The location was absolutely stunning, surrounded by lush vegetation and beautiful gardens. It felt like I was in the middle of a jungle paradise. The bungalows were well-designed and tucked away in their own little area, providing a sense of privacy. And the best part? It was just a short walk across the road to the beach. It was so convenient to have the beach right there, without having to travel far.

    I would highly recommend this hotel to my family and friends. It truly is a luxurious and comfortable place to stay, with its stunning location in the jungle, well-designed bungalows, and excellent service.

    We recently stayed at a charming hotel in a small fishing village that provided a tropical oasis. The rooms were spacious, private, and modern with comfortable beds. The location was perfect, just steps away from the beach and surrounded by an abundance of restaurants. The lush gardens provided a nice escape, with plenty of shaded areas to relax and unwind.

    Although the hotel was ideal in almost all aspects, the wifi could have been improved to save time on online check-ins and emails.

    We had a wonderful stay with great Italian food, homemade passionfruit ice cream, and friendly staff who speak many European languages. Isla de la Plata tour is a must, with sightings of dolphins, turtles, tropical fish, and birds, for only $35. The unique accommodation surrounded by amazing artworks was exquisite, with lovely private terraces, hammocks, and beautiful common areas.

    Nothing to be said.

    The atmosphere is pleasant, with a welcoming staff and beautiful garden. The location is great, away from noisy bars but still just a short walk to the beach. The property is lush with greenery and has well-thought-out rooms and common areas. The beach in front is clean and the rooms are comfortable and clean.

    Complementary breakfast and parking are a plus. The hotel is located near the beach and is easy to find. , the beds are comfortable.

    The hotel is situated in a noisy area where partygoers are likely to keep you up at night. The rooms have very thin walls, so you can hear everything that is happening outside.

Helpful staff, arranged trekking excursion and trip to Isla de la Plata. Sweet location near beach and easy walk into Puerto Lopez. Lush garden habitat.

    What a gem of a place! From the charming decor to the fantastic breakfast and helpful staff, everything was perfect. the location was ideal, close to key amenities and attractions. I particularly enjoyed the serene atmosphere and the comfortable, quiet room with a view. the lush greenery surrounding the property was such a bonus.

    I wasn't too fond of the noise level outside going late into the night. It made it hard to fall asleep at times.
