Wunderschöne, ruhige Anlage mit tollem Frühstück und nettes Personal – absolut empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Großzügiges, helles und gut ausgestattetes Zimmer mit gemütlichem Bett, Klimaanlage, Ventilator und Kühlschrank. Alles war sauber. Die wunderschöne, grüne und ruhige Anlage, das freundliche Personal und das hervorragende Frühstück haben mir besonders gut gefallen. Auch das Küchenteam war sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit. Kostenloses Mineralwasser, zuverlässiges WLAN, ein gutes Restaurant und eine nette Reggae-Bar in der Nähe rundeten den Aufenthalt ab. Ausgezeichnetes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis für meine Reisedaten.

Cons:

Es war nur Barzahlung möglich, wobei die Einführung der Kartenzahlung laut Personal bereits in Arbeit ist. Das Leitungswasser war nicht trinkbar, allerdings gab es kostenloses Mineralwasser an der Rezeption bzw. in der Bar der Anlage. Leider war der Strand direkt vor der Anlage durch die starken Sommerregen beschädigt und nicht durchgehend begehbar, dennoch sehr schön.

Pros:

Habitación con amplia terraza y jacuzzi en el piso superior de una de las casitas. Cama extragrande muy cómoda, aire acondicionado (imprescindible) y pequeña cocina totalmente equipada. Bonito y amplio jardín con piscina y bar/cafetería. Buen desayuno a la carta cuando hay pocos clientes. Cuando hay muchos, ofrecen un buffet aceptable. Suficiente espacio de aparcamiento. Está en la misma Playa Negra (solo hay que cruzar la pequeña carretera o camino), pero justo en el extremo más alejado del pueblo de Cahuita, por lo que es la zona más tranquila. A Cahuita se puede ir andando en unos 20 o 30 minutos por esa carretera-camino. Muy buena experiencia.

Pros:

The staff was warm and attentive, friendly, polite. Great breakfast, the pool is attractive, clean. The gardens are beautiful - birds, flowers, butterflies.

Cons:

The mattress was the firmest mattress I have ever slept on. The bedsheets were clean but there was no bedding beyond the two sheets. I would have been comfortable with some sort of additional cover. I used a sarong which was good enough.

Acogedor y relajante.
Pros:

La experiencia natural y las habilidades 😍🥳

Cons:

Mayor seguridad. Niños en la piscina de adultos y algunos sin supervisión. Me gustaría que si es de adultos fuera de adultos. Pero todo bien.

Pros:

Cute bedroom huts, closeness to beach, friendly staff.

Cons:

I was nervous walking to hotel in evenings as not many street lights, few cars and lots of hiding spots for people to lerk. Would be great place if you were staying with another person.

Pros:

Het zijn leuke uitjes op het park en alles was erg schoon. Het ontbijt is simpel, maar okay.

Cons:

Je kan goed de buren horen praten, daarnaast is het matras erg hard. Ook is het zwembad klein voor de hoeveelheid mensen op het park
