Great place to stay on Taboga. The island is amazing, everyone is very friendly. The manager, Roberto was great for everything we needed and made a wonderful host
I like the excellent and caring service service of the staff. I question renting the lawn area to a private party playing loud music 9 - 1am on Sat. night.
This was a last minute stay and we didn't know what to expect, so I was so pleasantly surprised by how wonderful Cerrito Tropical is. Beautiful views, comfortable beds, clean facilities, and with delicious fresh, homemade biscuits for breakfast. You really couldn't ask for more and Taboga is such a magical place. Thanks to everyone at Cerrito Tropical for making our stay happy, relaxing, and memorable!!

transportation delays. Condition of pool, not usable, restaurant food substandard as compared to previous visits, tap water not drinkable.
Apesar do hotel ficar localizado um pouco distante do pier, e no final de uma rua bastante íngreme, minha estadia seria muito boa se nao fosse a grosseria desnecessária da funcionária Vick, para comigo, na frente dos demais hóspedes, por estar ouvindo MPB, em volume baixo, na área externa da piscina (e olha que ainda atendi ao seu pedido, levando para ela brigadeiros, daqui do Brasil).
Beautiful island stay. Very simple amenities and self serve sorta gig. The lounge areas were lovely. Lush tropical rainforest surrounding the property. Very friendly staff, island locals are all very hospitable.
I thought this was a hotel but it is more of a hostel . The bed was very comfy the most bed we have slept in for 16 days now . The room is very minimal only a bed and bathroom in our unit . There is a very nice open area sitting room a big deck and a cabana style area out front with chairs and hammocks . Often the cab's pull up in the morning and Spanish people are loud talkers. We had the room by the office and turn around on the road so it was often noisy in the morning when guest arrived .
We enjoye our stay in Taboga .

Zimmer entsprach nicht die Abbildung bei der Buchung - Zimmer lag im EG - nur ein kleines Fenster am Handwaschbecken und noch kleiner in der Dusche im EG - Federn zu spüren bei der Matratze - viel Platz - Lage: gut, schöne Sicht auf der Bucht - sehr ruhig - Eigentümerin sehr nett und gab gute Informationen.
Struttura decente in zona tranquilla. Prezzi molto alti per il rapporto qualità prezzo. Pulizia della camera ogni "2 giorni "(?) Poca attenzione al cliente. In bagno nessuna traccia di sapone e shampoo, televisione con scarsi canali e mancanza di segnale, non mi hanno rilasciato nessuna fattura anche se è stata da me richiesta più volte. A Taboga va bene una gita in giornata, fare più giorni sarebbe troppo noioso. Ristoranti scarsi e sporchi la pulizia e l'igiene non sono ammessi.
