I enjoyed the forest around the property and the wildlife, it was great to be welcomed by a person at check in.

We stayed a week with my family (two children aged 14 and 8). The environment was beautiful, we saw several animals on the property (monkeys, squirrels...), very quiet and private. It is very close to a stocked supermarket and the entrance to the beach of Cahuita Park. Yes, I think it's essential to have a car to get around, since the other beaches are further away. The pool was very refreshing for the afternoons but it is very deep so be careful if you go with small children. We like to cook, and we found that the kitchen is missing utensils, but that's easy to solve. Finally, the house is very cozy because it brings the family together since the rooms are connected. We had a great time at the house.

The house itself was beautiful and the staff was amazing but for the price that you pay per night, it was a little disappointing. The add advertises that the beach is waking distance from the house but the walk required you to go on the highway for part of it and it is a private park that requires you to pay. The closest public beach is a 40 min walk away. Another issue was that the wifi was not reliable, many times it was saying that there was no connection and we required a second wifi box in order to get any sort of access to the internet. Finally, the trashcans were falling apart and some of dishes in the cupboard were dirty. Overall, the stay was nice and the house was beautiful but we just wish it was more accessible to the beach and that the wifi was more reliable.

The entire complex is very well maintained, a large garden, a nice pool and a great tennis court. The house is modern, bright with lots of glass, so you can watch the wildlife from bed. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need for cooking. The bathrooms are new and clean. A big problem for us were the large openings on the shower doors and windows, so we regularly had animals in the house (frog, geckos, beetles, large flying beetles). If the house were sealed and without insects and reptiles, it would be the perfect place to stay. But the host assured us that as soon as he was back, he would address the issue immediately. This should ensure that the nights remain animal-free for future guests. Then the accommodation is the perfect place for a nice vacation!
