Erg fijne accomodatie met prachtige tuin. Je hoeft in principe niet weg want er zitten elke dag luiaards in de bomen in de tuin. Fijn zwembad, wel volledig in de zon. Kamer is fijn, met airco en douche met hele goede waterdruk!

A lovely 3 days in wonderful surroundings

A lovely 3 night stay in beautifully maintained tropical gardens and well kept comfortable 2 bed cottage. Lots of wildlife in the gardens and trees including Sloths. Hosts were fantastic and nothing was too much of a problem. Beautiful swimming pool and right on the beach. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

This property is absolutely beautiful. The grounds are immaculate and the pool is very clean and relaxing. Nice quiet visit among nature.
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved every second of our stay. Place is run by 2 passionate owners. They shared local ideas and advices in between pointing out slots, iguanas, toucans that inhabit their wonderful property. Couldn’t recommend that place enough and can only be jealous of next guests that will be staying in Maria and Pierre’s property.

An amazing hotel with wonderful owners. Marise very welcoming and helpful and Pierre great at showing you all the wildlife you can see in the garden. They have truly thought of everything you could want.

Lugar bonito y tranquilo

Un lugar bonito y tranquilo para ir en familia! Lo único es que cierto camino están con mucho excremento de los animales y deberían ser limpiados y adicionalmente qué hay partes de los edificios que se están comenzando a deteriorar por ejemplo abanicos oxidados, barandas y lámparas!
Gerardo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Extremely quality
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is a mini animal sanctuary, with many agouti running around and sloths hanging in the trees. Many birds and frogs and even a kinkajou, although hard to spot. The hosts are very nice and helpful, Marise will make sure you and comfortable and Pierre will tell you all about the wildlife. The room is clean and comfortable, although there is no AC, so keep that in mind. It is walkable to Cahuita although a couple more min out of the way than some of the other hotels, wasn’t a problem to walk to the beach, park or city though. Overall safe, comfortable, and friendly, I would recommend a stay here especially if you want easy access to sloths and wildlife out your front door

Bird watcher’s paradise!

This CNN is a bird watchers paradise. Amazing natural property. The room # 4 had a squeaky bed but a great veranda for watching birds. Extra small table and chairs in the room would have been good. The use of the BBQ at the pool was wonderful!

10/10 Exceptional

Just across the street from the ocean and beach, a beautiful, secluded property. Each room/cabins has private outdoor space. Our quad room had great mini kitchen type amenities. Ocean waves, sloths, parrots, toucans, iguanas, tree frogs and CONSTANT agoutis running around! A little paradise. The owners are very helpful. Our only complaint is that it was a bit of a walk from town for our six year old’s legs, but we knew that up front so the property can’t be faulted for that. Just lovely in every way! Beach toys, towels, and chairs all included too.
