    The shower was pretty. Beds were pretty comfortable. There were coconuts everywhere. The fridge was big and comfortable to put your food in.

    Location isn’t the one shown in Booking. The owner was a little rude when we got lost because of the location shown in booking, and also when we asked for help turning on the stove. It Was far from everywhere. There were holes in the walls and main door due to the wood everywhere , which is understandable but is unsafe because of the animals/bugs. Place was a little tight and uncomfortable to cook/eat.

    Really comfortable, quiet, a lot of birds singing, quite far from city (walk 30 minutes) but worth the peaceful area.

    Very cool and unique design. 10-15 minute walk to several restaurants.

    A bit warm but the fan helped. The beds were not comfortable.

    The host Fabio is a nice guy! Nice how they build it all in bamboo.

    Read other reviews. I think it’s good if you’re in a group and not too high demanding.

    It is what you would except, a lovely bamboo house in the middle of the green and peaceful Santa Catalina. Francesco and Fabio made sure our stay was truely pleasant. We highly recommend it!

    More furniture in the rooms to be able to put the clothes

    Fabio made sure we could find everything super easy. The place is a small oasis in the middle of nature. A small path takes you straight to the beach within a few minutes. Accommodation well equipped with everything you need. The voucher to eat at La Pulperia was the best. Loved their food and atmosphere.

    I did mis a chill area or a comfortable seat at the house. But that was not a problem as we spent most of the time at the beach anyway.

    The location is amazing! There is a walk path in the jungle to the beach which we loved taking. The architecture and the garden(s) are amazing. You are living in the jungle but with comfort. The staff and owner are amazingly friendly and accommodating! We had cleaners every day if we wanted and they even watched for our dog so we could do a snorkel trip to Coiba! We worked from there and like every rural place there was an occasional power cut, but beside that the internet was reliable

    It was pretty quiet and only 10 min to the beach. I accidentally payed them twice and they refunded me instantly.

    We where a group of 4 people and for that the space was tiny. It felt like 2 beds where just thrown in because the space seemed to be built and suitable for 2 people. There was no chill out area other than than the hammocks (they smelled pretty bad I guess it’s due to the humidity) other than that we didn’t find it comfortable to eat all together there wasn’t really a table that fit 4 people. Also not too many chairs. Two people basically had to sleep in the common area/kitchen. The beds had a weird smell to them and the mattress felt worn down. The door couldn’t be properly locked. If it was locked you could still slide it to one or the other side and squeeze through it. The outdoor shower was really nice. The staff was really nice and helpful. Over all I think you could do so much more with the area than they made of it. Part of it is also under construction so maybe they are upgrading it

    Despite the noisy neighbors, the nature was beautiful. The host was friendly but could help with the towels.

    The value for money ratio was very disappointing. We had much more comfort for a third to half the price in many other places. It's like camping in the open air, but you pay for a junior suite with air conditioning and a separate and closeable bathroom. The towels came off and lint was everywhere. The access road was not passable without a jeep due to the mud.

    The concept of this place is really cool, but execution is not there for the price you pay. It is peaceful and close to nature.

    The kitchen was not equipped for cooking. There were no bowls, no knife, no lighter for the stove. These were basic items which should have been provided. The fridge didn't close, so didn't work. The roof was a "double roof", so not closed, and two bats came in to the building and we're flying around. The place could benefit from some screens to keep bats out. Many of the lights didn't work, which meant it was not well lit inside. There was also no hot water.

    We had a lovely stay. The bungalows were very beautiful, clean and the people that run the place are very kind and welcoming. Also we liked that the place was close to the beach.
