The property could use some updates. The front desk staff was polite but not particularly warm. I got the impression that because I booked through a third-party site, I was receiving a more limited experience, this was mentioned more than once when I checked in. In the room, the hair dryer didn’t work, and the coffee setup wasn’t fully stocked. When we requested coffee supplies, what was brought didn’t work with the machine, so we weren’t able to use it. Some of the pool towels appeared quite worn, and the bathroom could use a bit more attention. The sink water had a cloudy look to it, which made us hesitant to use it even for basic things like brushing teeth. Pillows were small and not very comfortable. Overall, the hotel was okay, but I was hoping for a better experience.

First off, it seems the 2 biggest questions deal with the Safety and Mosquitos. 1) We felt completely safe getting to and from the island as well as our time on the island. All guides, drivers, and locals we talked to were very friendly, and it seems like the political tension has subsided. 2) The mosquitos were abundant on the 2 calm nights we had and not noticeable on the breezy nights. They were only out for about 2 hours after sunset and only bad for 1 of those 2 hours. We got used to watching the sunset and then going inside to get ready for dinner while the mosquitos were out. We did not see a single mosquito inside our casita. Now onto the review...The island is beautiful and so different than other places. Definitely luxury yet eco at the same time. The food was amazing and the drinks were wonderful. The best was the morning coffee/tea/juice and banana bread delivered to your private deck followed by morning yoga on the main deck. Sunsets behind the Mombacho Volcano are also unbelievable as is kayaking/SUP around all the many tiny neighboring islands. The pool definitely came in handy as the lake is not clear; the pool is also bigger than it looks in pictures. Great place to completely unplug and the incredibly friendly staff make it easy to relax.
