The location is spot on! Exactly where u want to be when you are in Santa Catalina. The staff is really nice and always trying to help. Renting surfboards is cheap (mostly softtops) and you walk to the beach really easily.

The owners arranged horse riding and a private trip to sebaco island including hiking with a local guide on the spot for us for a low price. The restaurant serves very nice food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had fun conversations with the owners to understand better the area, they even showed us feeding of the local crocodiles in the mangrove forest close to the hotel.

The room was small yet comfortable and had everything I needed. I took surfing lessons right out front, and the instructor met me at the hotel, which was super convenient. Great location.

The location (sunset view, beach access), the rooms with balcony and especially the friendly staff. It is a family-run accommodation and you can see the passion behind it.

    Location was amazing being right on the beach. Main area had lots of sitting areas to relax and find shade. Atmosphere and decor was relaxing and inviting. Great having a pool when you didn’t feel like going in the ocean. Beach was beautiful and long enough for a good walk.

    The location is to die for. Right on the beach, you can hear the waves crashing and the breeze blowing as you're falling asleep. It was kind of funny because you have to cross a little "river" or inlet on foot to get there, and depending on the tide it can be a bit of water to wade through (roller bags not recommended!) but it just added to the sense of adventure and seclusion. It was very easy to book a day trip to Coiba Island via reception, as well as sign up for surf lessons.
