Relaxed, safe, scenic, and a convenient location. Thanks!
Pros:

Great location within Cahuita, short walking distance to the beaches and National Forest. Anett’s home is on the property, too (owner). Don’t hesitate to ask, if you need something.

A very disappointing experience
Pros:

We did not stay in the house that was depicted on the photos. There are 2 houses for renting next to each other in the garden and the one we stayed in was in a very poor condition. Had we seen the actual pictures, we would not have chosen it.

Cons:

the key for the house was so old that it broke when trying to open the door.

Our host was great and with a few tweaks, the unit would be great.
Pros:

The host was great and the location was very convenient.

Cons:

Three things can be improved:
1) the single room had a pillow that was too thick. I would encourage having options since people have contrasting preferences. The were better in the double room.
2) Having a fan in both rooms would be nice. Currently the double room only has a wall mounted unit that is not adjustable.
3) We stayed over Friday night and there was a lot of loud music from a nearby restaurant. If you are a night owl, now problem. Come prepared with some white noise.

Very well kept place close to beach and town centre.
Pros:

Babilonia is in Cahuita, also very close to the beach, few minutes walk. The place was very quiet, between threes and bushes, we even had a sloth on the three next to our place. The place was very clean, and the garbage taken out daily, towels changed every other day. The owner also lives on the property, very helpful.

Beautiful apartments in the amazing town of cahuita
Pros:

This is a beautifully architected and designed property located right in cahuita. The grounds are beautiful. We picked our own bananas one morning right from the yard! We also saw cool birds and agoutis. It’s a short walk to the national park and all the beaches and restaurants cahuita has to offer. Ann, the host, was extremely nice and helpful in suggesting activities and restaurants in the area.

Cons:

We stayed in a room with one queen bed and one twin bed. The twin bed room mattress sunk into the bed frame leaving for a pretty not great sleep. The other room, however, was perfect. We were only there 2 nights but Ann was nice enough that we believe she would have resolved this problem had we said something upon arrival.

Highly recommendable accommodation in lovely garden with charming, most attentive hosts
Pros:

The perfect place to stay in Cahuita. Anett already provided lots of valuable support during the planning stage of our trip and made organizing easy for us. It was a pleasure to stay in her well-equipped garden apartment, where she was highly attentive to her guests' needs and always ready to help. A big thank you to Anett and her husband for their hospitality and for making our stay in Cahuita so enjoyable (including listening to distant howler monkey sounds in the early morning)! We would return any time. Highly recommended.

Wonderful cabin peaceful and comfortable
Pros:

The location was wonderful, in the centre but with a garden to isolate yourself a little and relax. Near all facilities like coach station, restaurants, park...
The lady running it was very easygoing and helpful, it was a pleasure talking to her
It had all the amenities needed, we could have breakfast there, the shower was excellent and the rooms spacious enough.
A true delight!

Cons:

There is absolutely nothing i can think of

Good value good location.
Pros:

Good value, Great location. The owner was helpful with good suggestions. It's just a block from restaurants but in a quiet area, if you don't mind the roosters. Cahuita offers several good restaurants in a laid back area with the national park easily accessible.

Cons:

Smell of propane from the 2 burner cook stove and it made popping noise, but you only smell if when you open the cabinet where it is stored with pans.

Exceptional
Pros:

The main advantage is the location of the apartment. It is close to the bus stop, the restaurants and shops, and not far from the beach either.
We were lucky being mostly alone in that beautiful garden (thanks to the low season in August). The place is so special with the local flora and fauna that we loved every minute there.
The owner lives next to the apartments, and she is really caring. She cleans the flat every day and gives useful information about the possibilities.
The restaurants around the apartment are amazing: Cahuita's taste being the best.
You can clearly experience the 'pura vida' lifestyle there.

Cons:

We arrived by bus and Cahuita did not seem espexially attractive at first sight. But we realized the attraction of the 'low-key' appearance especially when it goes together with friendliness and creafivity.
You need to get used to the noise of the jungle at night and of some noisy religious activities in the neighborhood.
We had mosquitoes in the apartment but the fans and the electric raid kept them away.
