The staff could not be more attentive especially Joel. Location is fantastic for those looking to get away from the hussle. Rooms are clean comfortable and spacious. Not much of a beach but a short kayak paddle away you’ll hit shallow turquoise waters. Hiring a golf cart is a must but you need to check out the up north bar near by hosted by Oscar. Onsite food is great especially the breakfast jacks.

The attention to detail by the staff was amazing. They keep the grounds looking beautiful and made us feel important and welcome. We were very relaxed and enjoyed the benefit of having water available for drinking and cooking. I would recommend packing a water bottle to save money and for the sustainability. The resort is your own oasis and worth the drive. There are many wonderful places to eat and visit nearby.

Very quiet and clean property however the mosquitoes were miserable. The location is very far away from San Pedro and the roads are awful! Couldn’t rent a golf cart because of the terrible condition of the roads. Too far away for anything. The staff was nice and attentive.

The property was quiet and really nice. Well maintained and clean, I always clean our room/ home when we travel and this place was by far the cleanest. My clorox wipes had very little dust/ dirt on them. It is on a swamp area so there are quite a bit of mosquitos. It's also 8 miles from town so it's a bit of a drive from town in San Pedro. The roads are rough and dark. The good was good, just small portions. Overall i would recommend this place and i would stay again and bring my kids here.
