    We had a fantastic time staying at the lodge. The location was beautiful and peaceful, with a stunning beach just a short walk away. We enjoyed the horse ride to the lodge, it was a unique and memorable experience. The activities available at the lodge were great, and we particularly loved riding horses on the beach. The free coffee in the morning was a nice touch. we highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

    This hotel, situated on a beautiful Pacific island just off Poneloya, exceeded my expectations in many ways. Firstly, the stunning location directly on the beach offered breathtaking views that made every moment magical. Secondly, the room with a queen bed and twin bunk beds was perfect for my family, providing ample space and comfort. Moreover, the basic amenities were well-maintained and catered to all our needs. Lastly, the breakfast served was absolutely delicious, ensuring we started each day on a high note.

    All was great, no improvement needed.

    The beach bar was a highlight of my stay, with its friendly staff and fun atmosphere. The location of the hotel right on the beach was perfect, allowing for easy access to the sand and sea. Additionally, the private beach made it feel like our own little paradise, with hardly any other people in sight.

    One downside was the cost of the food, which seemed a bit pricey compared to other options in the area. It would be great if they could offer more affordable meal choices.

    We had an incredible time at this hotel. The location is perfect, right on the beach and in the midst of nature. You can enjoy stunning sunsets and sunrises from the comfort of your room, which is clean and offers great views. In addition, the hotel facilities are diverse and well-kept. We particularly enjoyed the volleyball court, and the smoothies provided by the hotel are a must-try. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we felt comfortable throughout our stay.

    Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

    The location of this hotel is truly amazing, with beautiful sunsets and a nearly unspoiled beach. The social vibes and friendly staff also added to the positive experience. Additionally, the accommodations were clean, comfortable, and airy, providing a nice place to relax during the day.

    There were a few downsides to my stay. The food could have been more tastefully prepared, and it took quite a long time for it to be ready once ordered.

    Free morning coffee, great for backpackers. Plenty of activities available on the property, perfect for group trips. Beautiful and almost private beach, ideal for relaxation. Horseback riding on the beach is a unique and enjoyable experience. Volunteering with turtles was amazing, lots of turtle sightings. Chilling in the hammocks and enjoying sunrise/sunset is a great way to relax. Located right on the beach, providing easy access. Unique ride to the property, whether by car, boat, or horse. Friendly staff who made the stay enjoyable and fun. Opportunity to see breathtaking starry nights.

    Not a place for those seeking peace and quiet, it's more of a party hostel. Can get noisy at times due to drunk guests.
