Si on ne cherche pas le luxe mais le charme et la tranquillité à un prix raisonnable c'est parfait
Pros:

Un joli petit endroit peu conventionnel au bord d'une petite rivière avec beaucoup de beaux arbres et beaucoup de plantes dans un jardin soigné. Les gentils propriétaires installés depuis 40 ans habitent dans la maison à côté, ou l'on prend le petit déjeuner. C'est à quelques km de l'embarcadère pour Drake bay et le Corcovado donc il vaut mieux avoir une voiture. Le bungalow en soi a beaucoup de charme, tout est en bois et a déjà un peu vécu, il est un peu surélevé sur des pieux, ambiance Louisiane où Mississippi. Il y a deux chambres et une véranda sur terrasse qui contient une cuisine et un petit salon, le tout avec des moustiquaires. La salle de bain est un peu rudimentaire mais fonctionnelle.

Amazing stay by the river
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay. The host was very friendly and welcoming. Lovely cabin with multiple fans. Delicious breakfast. There was an abundance of wildlife on the beautiful property - bats, lizards and many types of birds, including a tree filled with scarlet macaws that supposedly stop by every night.
Worth it to stay outside of the main part of town for tranquility, even without a car.
I wish we stayed longer!

Cons:

I think there was only cold water for the shower - not really an issue because it was so hot.

My stay was a most relaxing and enjoyable experience and one that I hope to repeat in the future.
Pros:

The location was lovely, full of trees, birds, flowers and fruit, and a nice view of the river. The property owners are charming and were always ready to provide interesting information on the history of the area and the local wildlife. I loved the breakfasts, which consisted of fruit, fruit juices made from fruits from trees on the property, a variety of bread and toast, cream cheese and a selection of jam., and (of course) coffee. I stayed for a week and I was sad to leave!

Cons:

I didn't dislike anything!

Viele Tiere im Garten, leckeres Frühstück und rustikaler Flair
Pros:

Das Hotel hatte den Flair einer Expedition von den 1930er Jahren. Man fühlte sich in der Zeit zurück versetzt und als ob man in einem Basislager für Entdecker ist. Es war ein Ort, der die Neugier geweckt hat und Abenteuerlust vermittelte. Es war als würde man in den Geschichten dieser Zeit wandeln. Für jemanden der gerne Bücher aus dieser Zeit liest ist dies ein wundervolles Hotel, um in diese Welt vollkommen einzutauchen.

Cons:

Mir hat mein kompletter Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen

Pleasant and relaxing experience in Sierpe
Pros:

The family is very friendly, we had a delicious breakfast, and the house is just gorgeous. Such a unique place to stay.

Cons:

We visited on a very warm day and the fan did not do much to cool down the room, very hot to sleep.

Amazing quiet place!
Pros:

Amazing location and the garden. Nice and attentive host with eye for details. Awesome breakfast! You can just enjoy the birds and quietness of the place. The facilities are simple but well done with nice deco, wooden floors in very traditional style. You can see more guacamayos here than in Corcovado 😁

Cons:

Pros:

L'ospitalità, la cortesia, l'accoglienza di Ileana (Lilli) e Benedetto. La natura circostante: abbiamo visto scimmie, un tucano una moltitudine di uccelli di varie specie, pappagalli Ara che venivano a dormire su un albero della proprietà, un procione, ho anche avuto la fortuna di vedere un coccodrillo che si fceva trasportre dalla corrente.

Cons:

Nulla

Sitio y atención increíbles
Pros:

El lugar es una pasada, la casa es muy bonita, el jardín y la zona son espectaculares. Tienen un embarcadero que da al río y en el porche desayunas con unas vistas espectaculares y muy agradables al jardín. El desayuno completo y muy rico. Y lo mejor que la dueña es muy maja y atenta.
Aunque no está en el propio pueblo, está muy cerquita y se llega fácil cruzando el puente, merece la pena la ubicación.

Cons:

Hay que pagar en efectivo, es lo único.

Excellent stay. I wish I booked for one or two more days.
Pros:

I loved the location and the birding in the morning. The breakfast was excellent. The owner was very friendly. The cabin was very clean.

Cons:

it was tiny bit more rustic than what I expected, but that said the cabin was very comfortable, clean, and tastefully decorated.
