I loved the hotel! Friendly staff and delicious food. I also liked that breakfast was included and the free welcome drinks! The room was always clean and so was the restaurant. There were some things that the hotel needs to improve like having a TV in the room and having 2 or more beds in the lower level cabin for disabled people. Overall, I give a 8.5 out of 10. Points. Great hotel!

We loved our stay. Especially swinging in the hammock on the porch of our room/cabana. It’s definitely rustic. So don’t expect fancy. But maintained, comfortable, safe, and steps from the beautiful beach. The staff is kind, the free breakfast is delicious, and the scuba shop fantastic! Take a dive with Zoe, you’ll absolutely love it. If you’re looking for authentic Honduran food, Bananarama is just a 1 min walk to La Placita and there you’ll find inexpensive pupusas and baleadas. Very delicious.

The rooms are basic but that's ok because you don't spend much time in the room! The dive shop is phenomenal. They use smaller boats to get around quickly and keeps the dive groups small. The dive leader's are awesome. They are very attentive to your every need. I cannot say enough good things about them. I would highly recommend diving with them if you have the opportunity.
