If you’re looking for peace and quiet , this is the place away from the noise . Very nice secluded hotel that you can enjoy their beautiful pool and relax in their hammocks that you can find everywhere and admire the fauna and vegetation that surrounds it. We loved it and hope to come back soon

Waking up and seeing toucans in the trees on the property. The stillness of the air that allows all the sounds of nature, primarily birds, to enter your senses. Just a hop, skip and a jump to Playa Las Flores as well. Just a note.... during low tide you can easily walk to El Cucu Beach as well. Great stay.

This little slice of paradise is tucked away a very short drive from the little town below where the market street fills with beach-goers on the weekends. If you want a quiet evening with a cute tropical aesthetic then this “blue soul” is where you want to stay.
