The room was very nice and clean. I appreciated the hosts’ work to make it an enjoyable stay. The howler monkeys hooting at 5:30 am made sure I didn’t sleep in for my 7 am start at Costa Rica Dive and Surf. It was a pleasant stay.

I loved being in the jungle staying in a bus with ensuite bathroom and kitchen. The 10-minute walk to the beach was not strenuous and I virtually had that part of the beach to myself. There was a nice pool on the premises. I enjoyed the homey atmosphere and feeling like I was part of the family.

The owners were so helpful! They had food delivered to us as we didn't have a car and scheduled a taxi for us to go to the ATM. Over and above! Howler monkeys very cool to hear in the jungle.

Sauberes, sehr einfaches Zimmer im Hostel, bequemes Bett, Moskitonetz an den Fenstern, mitten im Wald gelegen, freundliches Personal. Die Gemeinschaftsküche ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Sanitäte Anlagen sind ok. Die wenig entfernte Schnellstraße ist etwas zu hören, stört aber nicht, da nachts eher wenig Verkehr ist.
