An unforgettable experience! We felt like we were at the ends of the earth, yet enjoyed all the comforts of a luxury hotel. The hotel has very few rooms, which enhances the intimacy and the feeling of pleasant seclusion on a magnificent, deserted black sand beach. There is nothing else on the island but the jungle and the hotel. The restaurant, right on the sand, is excellent, with a menu that changes daily. The staff is charming and discreet, and the activities are well-organized. One of the best hotel experiences we've ever had.

I would give it 4.5 stars. It fell short of 5 due to the activity planning and communication related to the activities. Other than that the location, food, service and staff are great. I would definitely stay there again. The casitas offer lots of private space for lounging inside or outside. You are steps from the beach, which on many times there is no one so you truly feel you are stranded in a tropical island ( in a good way).
