    It's just a dream. We would go back any time. You can hear the sound of the ocean at night and enjoy the seaview during the day. We had a beautiful room with a private bathroom and a shared kitchen with refrigerator. Everything was very clean. There are only three rooms, so you have lots of privacy. The owner lives upstairs and is here for you any time. Thank you very much.

    The nearest neighborhood. Hotel is located close to the main street which is ugly and dirty. On the other hand, trips to Coiba Island starts from here.

    Very nice location on top of a hill overlooking ocean. Plenty of comfortable outdoor furniture inviting to relax. Good equipped outdoor kitchen with all necessary stuff.

    It’s a beautiful house right at the front of the smaller of Santa Catalina’s two beaches, only a few steps away from the Main Street where restaurants, cafes and all the dive shops are located. The owner is really nice and gave good recommendations on where to eat, there’s only three rooms so it’s really cozy, it was very clean, the shared kitchen is equipped for making breakfast or some basic cooking and the terrace is just amazing with tables to eat and sunchairs and hammocks to relax and the perfect ocean and sunset view. And the best thing: you can hear the sound of the waves while falling asleep!

    The view from the terrace is breathtaking, the room and the shared bathroom was very clean and all you need on a tropical holiday. The host Darcy was very welcoming and made me feel at home from day one. There is also a possibilty to rent an canoe to go to the island just across the property.

    While we knew this going in before we booked it, private bathrooms or at least one more shared toilet would make a huge improvement in our rating. It appears that there is the possibility for that. That said, the toilet and very large separate shower was always clean and we had no issues whatsoever other than having to wait (or know that someone else is waiting on you). It isn’t really fair to complain about this as the listing clearly states it but we offer it as a “suggestion “ to further enhance the experience for their guests. Our only other concern is that the place is already booked out so we won’t be able to go back as we fell in love with it

    The location and layout of the rooms are fantastic. The parking couldn’t have been better. A cute bridge to pass over that we loved walking on greeted by the guard poodles and cats. We loved the dogs and cats (they are not intrusive or noisy but will happily accept some pets if you offer them) We also loved how close it was ro everything. It was very quiet and the views of the sunsets over the beach and the islands were spectacular. Our hosts were very friendly and accommodating. They have comfortable chairs and loungers so we didn’t spend a lot of time in the room itself but it was very serviceable. We would definitely love to return.

    The stay in Coiba house was incredible! To keep it short: the location is really perfect and clean, the host is super nice and helpful and the entire stay was just an experience. I wasn't looking forward to a shared bathroom, but it wasn't a problem at all: nice and clean. Location and Accomodation: 5/5⭐ Hospitality and Helpfulness: 6/5⭐ Shady-ness: 0/5⭐

    Best Sunset views in Santa Catalina!

    Although close to the beach not the nicest beach (obviously not a fault of the accommodation but general note on Santa Catalina), but ideal if you want to go to Coiba island or surfing. Kitchen lacks utensils e.g no chopping board but for basic meals not an issue.

    Incredible location, we loved sitting in the hammocks and watching the sunset. No better view in Santa Catalina. Great aircon in the rooms and very clean with towels provided. Great access to town and the beach. Kitchen was basic but functional and worked well. The host was so helpful and friendly, we loved meeting the pets and we used the laundry service which was speedy.

    The rooms have a bit of humidity but with the air-con on dry mode is ok.

    This is a great home feeling place to stay in Santa Catalina. Only 3 rooms what makes it very familiar and not a big problem to share the toilet and the shower. The kitchen is very helpful to cook easy meals instead of going to restaurants. The view is amazing and you are surrounded by nature! Many local restaurants and mini markets around on a walking distance. We had a car but never needed to use it during our 3 days in Santa Catalina.
