Maya Bella Downtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El que tenga parqueo fue fantástico Y está cerca de varios locales y ventas lo que ayudó mucho para ubicarse"

The Log Cab Inn Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to stay if you want a little jungle feel while still being comfortable. Close to everything we wanted so explore. Staff were so accommodating. Beliezians really are amazing people."

The West House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice room and facilities. Nice patio with hammock. Staff friendly and helpful. Coffee shop does not open until 8 or later Several restaurants nearby, important to note, there are several restaurants on the street parallel to Burnes avenue - cut throught across from the Burnz resturant."

Table Rock Jungle Lodge

8/10 Good

"Like many eco lodges in the area, rooms are basically screened-in porchs with adjustable shutters - perfect for the setting, but very exposed. So, I get up at 2:30am for a routine bathroom visit, and let me add the (surprisingly relevant) detail that it was the quick and quiet #1 variety. Just as I was back in bed turning off the light, someone in the dark just outside my window asked 'Are you alright?'. Startled, at first I assumed this was a conversation between 2 people coincidentally on the walk outside my room, and I did not respond. However, the person who identified as a security guard seemed to really want to start a conversation with me, and kept asking until I responded. If I was not fully awake before, I sure was now and hours after,"

Villa Massis Luxury Jungle Villas

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t stay enough good things about our stay at Villa Massis! It was slow season so it was so quiet and secluded and felt like we were VIP with the place to ourselves! Beautiful grounds and felt like a true jungle oasis! The rooms were perfect with all the needed amenities and nice artwork. I loved the separate living room space which was perfect to accommodate our 1 year old’s pack and play. We did the pontoon boat tour with them which was an all day tour and some of the most incredible and secluded views I’ve ever seen! Staff was great. Definitely recommend!"

Mystic River Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I really would like to thank the staff. Steve, Leslie, Marvin & Ellany. I would definitely visit again. They really have a great team!"

Falling Leaves Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff and service. Very convenient location."

Venus Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good basic accommodation. Lots of space in room considering two double beds. You do have to come upstairs, no elevator. On good street for walking, close to local market. Parking available."
