My stay at Bauma Hotel was nothing short of incredible. From the moment I arrived, it felt like my own private oasis. The hotel’s location offers breathtaking views of the volcano, creating a stunning backdrop that made every morning and evening unforgettable. The room itself was comfortable and beautifully designed, but the shower was the true highlight, so relaxing and luxurious that I genuinely didn’t want to get out. It became one of my favorite parts of the stay! Another major plus was the hotel’s prime location. It was perfectly situated for exploring the town, making it easy to get around and enjoy everything the area has to offer. Overall, Bauma Hotel exceeded all my expectations. Amazing views, exceptional comfort, and a great location. I couldn’t have asked for more. I had an absolutely wonderful stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Honestly if I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. It’s a 10 min drive to town, 30 min walk. The attention to detail here was amazing, the staff cleaned my room daily. The shower was SOOO hot and the private jacuzzi was used daily. If you want a relaxing, beautiful comfortable place to stay look no further. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler. There is security on site and reception is reached through what’s app.
The bathroom products smelt amazing
Even the toilet paper had the BAUMA stamp.

We loved this hotel. Us and another couple booked our rooms here because we wanted to be close to town but not actually in town. The hotel communicated via WhatsApp and was responsive to everything. The bed was wonderful, so much so we took a picture of the brand so we can get one for our guest room at home. The indoor/outdoor shower is awesome. We enjoyed the rain coming in via the hole in the roof with the rain shower head. Parking was easy, security and housekeeping were friendly, and I liked just getting text the code for the lock box and getting the room key. The views from the sky deck were great when the volcano showed between the clouds. We sat on the bed outside in the rain and enjoyed some wine and just enjoyed the sounds of the jungle. We would 100% stay here again if in the area. Price was fair for what we got. Ac was cold which is a must for us. Hot tub was nice to have even tho we turned the temp way down so it was more like a refreshing plunge pool. Oh and they had ice in the freezer and refilled daily. Love us some ice.

Everything about the villa was 🔥🔥🔥, from cleanliness, amenities and staff. This was an amazing birthday celebration. I was able to have private chef, backdrop with balloons and a private musician come for my birthday. The villa looks exactly like the pictures. I would definitely recommend Bauma Villa.
