Thank you Jessica- Banana Azul- treat her well
Jessica was the best, she took care of me. At first my first room was not good- the villa is not what it is like online. I needed to change and she helped me. A lot. She also helped me celebrate my birthday and the restaurant servers all sang happy birthday.

Beautiful Location, Opportunities for Improvement
The Howler Room is so nice with an ocean/beach view and large deck. Unfortunately, the beautiful experience was tempered by the non-working TV, non-working Fan and finding someone else’s dirty socks and underware beside the apartment refrigerator. Not what I expect at this price point!

The hotel was conveniently located close to a beautiful, private beach. The staff was friendly but dining staff was very very slow. Wifi is very weak here. Nice rooms but without air conditioning. Make sure to bring earplugs for the road noise and birds.

Lovely relaxing stay. We saw sloths in the trees and poison dart frogs on the ground! The walks along the beach were beautiful. The food was very good especially the tuna steaks and it was not too expensive. Excellent cocktails!

I have already given feedback to the Operations Manager about this property. I would only reiterate that where the property is situated is not good for a Solo, Elderly, Disabled traveler.
The property needs to be refurbished in and out.

We booked for 1 week, ended up leaving after 1 nite! It was that bad. Dirty, dingy, worn down, small, out dated, bugs everywhere, no screens on windows, holes in mosquito net. Avoid at all costs!
