Hidden paradise

Pros: It was an absolutely perfect place to recharge your batteries. And much better than we expected. This place is definitely a hidden paradise.

Cons: The only small downside was that the mattress in our room wasn’t very comfortable.

Pros: Our stay at Dream Contentment Hotel was truly unforgettable. David, our host, was incredibly kind and welcoming - he went out of his way to show us sloths, monkeys, and other incredible local wildlife, making our experience feel magical from the very start. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, fresh, delicious, and a perfect start to each day. One of the biggest highlights was the direct access to the beach. Whether you’re looking to relax or catch some waves, it’s an ideal spot for surfing and enjoying the ocean. The whole vibe of the place is peaceful and beautiful, and Carmen’s hospitality made it feel like home. We left feeling so relaxed and happy. We can’t wait to come back !

Totally recommended, we enjoyed it a lot.

Pros: Beautiful room, AC works, staff were nice, showed us animals even, beach front, breakfast served in the yard in front of the ocean. Many iguanas to see. They made vegan pancakes for me - very tasty.

Cons: Breakfast could be a bit more diverse.

Pros: What a gem in an idyllic setting, right on the beautiful beach, with iguanas and monkeys running among the palm trees. A great spot to relax or catch a surf. An exceptional staff, kind people who take visible pride in their work. Carmen is great, responds quickly, and goes the extra mile to make sure you have a pleasant stay. And the pancakes for breakfast are perfect! We will surely be back ;-)

Pros: Fantastic location, directly adjacent to the beach, miles of sandy beach without stones. All you can hear from the apartment is the surf. You are wonderfully alone here, there are no distractions on the beach, no sales, no activities. The road behind the house is not very busy. The grounds are beautiful, you can lie under trees in the shade, breakfast is served on the terrace, simple but delicious. The staff on site were very nice, the boy showed us the sloths several times. The Cappuchino Monkeys came very close every day across the grounds. They are a bit aggressive and like to steal. But with a bit of distance it was a great spectacle. There is a fairly expensive supermarket within walking distance. We really liked it there. In terms of location, it was the best accommodation of the trip so far.

Cons: Light on the balcony was very bright, from the second day it was completely broken. The blinds were broken and did not stay open. No ATM in the village. Unfortunately we only stayed there for three nights.

Like a Dream - paradise on Earth!

Pros: Wonderfull location on the beach, amazing garden with palm trees and delicous breakfast. The Bungalow was very clean and beautiful furnished, we felt very comfortable and warm welcomed during our whole stay. We stayed for two nights and wish that we could have stayed longer. Definitely recommend it!!!

Pros: all 3 rooms are in front of the ocean and amazing beaches. its very calm and peaceful. perfect spot to relax or do nearby activities. we stayed 2 nights and would have stayed more days if we knew how beautiful the place is. coffee machine and coffee was in the room as well as ac and fridge. hammock and beach loungers are set up at the beachfront for guests but the beach itself is wild. monkeys came by every day.

Beachfront hotel on a secluded, peaceful beach

Pros: Location was right on the beachfront. Staff was friendly and let me leave my bags there early and check in early, with very little notice.

Cons: The bathroom was separate to the room, however it was still a private bathroom and it may well be that it’s only separate for the budget rooms.
