The hotel offered a spacious but slightly outdated room with no A/C, fridge, or TV, and some small maintenance issues. However, the ocean breeze and nature views from the balcony were delightful. The hotel needed a fresh coat of paint. The location by the sea was picturesque, but some amenities were lacking.

Perched uphill, the hotel offers a refreshing ocean breeze and the serene sound of waves but lacks basic room amenities like Aircon, TV, and proper lighting. The surroundings had a strong sewage odor during hot weather. The shared balcony is a great spot to observe hummingbirds and tanagers.
Rooms
The rooms lacked essential amenities and had some issues with fittings, but the views over the bay were stunning. Be ready to climb lots of steps up and down. Rating: 5/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of incredible views and some challenges. The spacious and comfortable room offered a breathtaking jungle and ocean panorama, although the 184 stone steps to reach the air-conditioned rooms might be a hurdle for some. The service was exceptional, with everyone from guides to chefs going above and beyond, although the dining options were somewhat limited. The location was perfect for nature lovers, with easy access to diving spots and national park tours. Despite some minor drawbacks, the overall experience was memorable and worth it for the views alone.

The hotel was very spacious and comfortable. The rooms could do with a bit of a makeover and lacked amenities like Aircon, fridge, and coffee making facilities. However, the place had poor lighting and sheets that didn't fit the bed. On the positive side, the accommodation was cozy and roomy.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, and even though there were some stairs to access them, the view, air conditioning, and privacy made up for it. The service was top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff who assisted with our luggage. The location was perfect, right by the beach and a trail leading into the rainforest and other resorts. The dining experience was enjoyable overall, with delicious options available. The facilities were well-maintained and added to the comfort of our stay.
