Since the hotel only has ten rooms and a couple of bungalows it felt like we had the place to ourselves. The staff knew our names and room number which made it a more personable experience. The view was amazing, the grounds were perfectly landscaped rooms were clean and the food was absolutely delicious. The price of the rooms and food were great. Oh and the location was right in the middle of two of the most popular watches in the area.

Beautiful hotel! We stayed in the suite and the views are amazing! Also the monkeys coming to visit on our balcony everyday was a plus. We met the owner, and he was so nice and hospitable. He offered us rides and the staff was so nice and helpful. The restaurant at the hotel was also the most delicious. The pool was beautiful with a great view. Everything here was amazing. I cant recommended enough.

El staff fue muy amable y el hotel tiene una vista maravillosa a la playa, pero el hotel tuvo problemas con el agua. En los dos días que me quedé, no había agua en diferentes momentos a lo largo del día.

Hidden Gem, don’t hesitate to book
Found this Gem last minute and wish we would have stayed longer. Amazing staff, rooms were stylish and comfortable, and excellent breakfast in the morning. Monkeys in the mango trees were fun to observe. Highly recommend!!

Macaw's, monkeys, great service and a view.
We had an amazing stay. The staff was very friendly, including the owner Aamit, who is passionate about service. The pool bar was a fun place to start. The restaurant and food was terrific. If possible try to stay on Friday for the soulful band. The view was great and the rooms were peaceful. The beds were very comfortable. We saw Macaws from the balcony of our very large room, and monkeys every day at about 4 pm. Enjoy. We would definately go back.

Stay Here! Eat here!
Beautiful, modern hotel. We loved the views, the bed was so comfortable, the pool and poolside bar was great. We loved the restaurant and felt the prices were fair. The best part, though, was the staff! Scarlet made the best drinks! Tracy and Bryan were fantastic servers. The food was fantastic!
