"We had the penthouse which had a beautiful view of the ocean. Loved having the comfort of an apartment with the convenience of a hotel. Staff were very nice and the food at the restaurant was delicious. We recommended it to people we met that were not staying at the hotel. We especially loved the fish and the "live cooking" pasta. The only negative was that there were not a lot of pool chairs so they filled up quickly but that makes sense for the size of the hotel. We definitely enjoyed our stay! "

"Wonderful staff who go above and beyond "

"The resort is located where jungle meets ocean. It’s more like glamping on steroid. If you are a nature lover like me, you will love every bit of it. My cabin/hut is right at the water line facing the ocean and the back is the jungle and the whole place runs by solar. I got to know the owners of the resort Michel and Vincent, from Belgium. They are 2 kind individuals with the biggest hearts I ever met. Michel would host us every meals and Vincent is the main chef would cook us all the gourmet meals that you could imagine. The resort has hired all their staff from the village near by, and they are all kind and friendly. I wanted to drink coconut water and one of the staff just went to pick a coconut right from the tree and served it to me, fresh organic coconut water. The room is very basic but clean and spacious . The food was unbelievable delicious. Every meal was prepared with freshly caught seafood and local ingredients. The head chef is from Belgium, so all of his dishes were global cuisine. I never had a bad meal during my stay. It was like going to high end restaurants every day. I recommend to try the home made hot sauce that Vincent makes. You can walk around the resort and enjoy the beaches there or there are lots of activities for you to do everyday like tour to Dolphin bay, red frog trail, sloth watching, snorkeling, kayak and SUB , Salt Creek village, turtle hatching.

"The rooms were clean. The food was not good. The same breakfast everyday no variety. We really wanted to like this hotel but was it was lacking. Bar doesn’t open til 2. Not a lot to do in the area. "

"A little hidden gem with a wonderful staff and delicious breakfast. "

"Incredible location and facilities. Restaurant food was excellent and very friendly, courteous staff. Loved how the accommodations blended into their surroundings! "

"We had an incredible three nights - from accommodations to activities to food, everything was amazing! Thank you Nathalie and JC"

"We loved Everything. The room, open to the jungle, sleeping under mosquito netting. Looking at the jungle while taking a shower. The common space with a virw to the water. The food excellent, but the staff was the best. If you are looking to get away from everything, surrounded by calming energy, this is the place for you. And they do have activities that they can arrange. "
