Note**** They are a cash business or they take Zelle (I missed that upon booking). This is a very charming, well-maintained, and secure property. We initially stayed in a cabina without air conditioning, but after the first night we upgraded to a room with A/C, which made our stay even more comfortable. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and excellent with communication throughout our visit. Our room was consistently clean, and the quality of the linens and towels was especially impressive. Amenities are minimal, so if you’re looking for features like a pool or in-room TV, this may not be the right fit. However, if you value a simple, clean environment with thoughtful, personalized service, this is a great choice. The location is very convenient: there’s a restaurant just across the parking lot, and the beach is only a 3–5 minute walk away. You’ll also find plenty of nearby restaurants, bars, and a grocery store within easy walking distance. We didn’t have a car and had no trouble accessing everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

The location is wonderful the staff is wonderful overall I felt pretty safe. The place is pretty old and outdated and has no AC so expect to be hot and require five showers a day. We noticed that someone came into the room and changed the trash where the toilet paper goes but didn't bring his fresh towels. And we noticed two visits on one day because the fan was turned off on the second visit but nothing was done at least we didn't notice so that was odd because they waited until we left to do so. It would have been nice to know that they're going to visit the room to handle these things so that I wouldn't leave out any valuables. At night there are strange noises from catfights to Neighbors to engines driving by. Because there's no AC you pretty much have to leave the windows cracked open the entire time so you can hear everything you don't feel like you have as much privacy. Although this place can save you a lot of money during your visit it does come with a lot of sacrifices and comforts. I think air conditioning would have made a huge difference. This is my last time staying there

Clear communication with instructions on how to get in after reception closes sent via WhatsApp...the owner Ken was friendly. Very clean. Area felt safe and an easy walk to restaurants and the beach.
