Very disappointing property .My booking said triple room only got room with one double bed .Bed was awful wooden slats covered over by dirty mdf boards and then a lumpy mattress thrown on top and one awful pillow each . You couldn’t close the curtains because the poles kept falling down on your head .The shower was a very dangerous poor saniflow system that didn’t work and the toilet didn’t flush .We had to ask everyday if bedding or towels could be changed otherwise they were not done .The room had such badly installed electrics and pipework some still exposed . Hope I never have to stay anywhere like that again .

Next to the beach. Easy check in and friendly staff. No AC tho... but I don’t think there is any on the island. No windows only nets to keep bugs out. Clean room and warm water.

Cozy

It was great! Do not expect a 5 star resort. This is an authentic family own hostel in a great location. It was clean, and had a great common area. The owners were super friendly and made us feel welcome.

Nice little hotel

I liked this place a lot and Sara was brilliant when i first arrived but she wS only there on the first day. My only complaint was the room wasn't cleaned during my stay and as you need to put the toilet paper in a bin its quite unpleasant. That's why i put a low score for cleanliness and service.

Hard to give a review as overbooked

Posted 11 Mar 2018
We got to the hotel after travelling for hours and they did not have a room available for us. We had booked in Nov 2017. However, the person was very sorry about it and found us a room at another hotel and offered to pay for one night. It worked out better for us, however it was frustrating after travelling all day.

So helpful

Juan couldn't have been more helpful and even helped to call the airline about my lost luggage. He even came with me to collect it from the harbour and carried it back for me. It was really humid while we were there and the rooms only had a fan so it was very hot in the room (day and night). Shame the property isn't on the sea front to get some breeze.

really like the ocean so close by!

Posted 17 Mar 2015
Pros: near the ocean, and near some good restaurants. you can hear the roar of the ocean at night and it was really cranking hard and eroding a lot of the
Cons: grounds need to be made so not so much sand is tracked into the rooms. i think the inside rooms were a little cooler rather than #1, so pick one of
Location: two discos, a wonderful national park with lots of monkeys. frog hunting for their red eyes at night. we saw a bunch of turtle eggs on the beach whi
it was nice that roberto greeted us from the public ferry dock and showed us around town. he was helpful with the guided tours information, and we were able to use the kitchen to cook our own food, so that was a bonus! the propritor was very sick and had sick baby, so we felt bad for her, but she seemed as cheerful as could be under the circumstances. we wish that there were little carpets for the floor by our bed because the sand was hard to control and thee needs to be some kind of ground cover or maybe buckets of water to rinse your feet before you track in into your room. we rented a kayak and took the tour ourself and we saw some really amazing things, like tons of birds, monkeys, and blue morpho butterflies. you have to get up early to get your tickets at 5;30 am. or you will need to go at a later time during the day, as they only allow 14 kayaks in every 3 hours to the national park. being there early you get so see more animals hunting and the howler monkeys are so loud!
