The staff were all so welcoming and made us feel at home. The grounds were also kept extremely clean and beautiful and the pool was the perfect temperature to cool off in. The rooms were large and comfortable. Great coffee in the morning and cute cats to stroke.

Luxury designed huge room, including all the amenities for the bathroom (shampoo,conditioner body lotion, soap) and brand new kitchen equipment. Nice swimming pool . Although it is located between 2 restaurants the music stops at 10pm so we had a quiet stay. The staff was friendly as well

A great place and one of our favourite places we stayed at! You’ll see an amazing sunset and it’s perfect to have a few real es days. The location is a bit off the street in the mountain, so a 4x4 is needed or reach out to them before for a pick up. The whole house is clean, smells good and everyone’s nice. I can definitely recommend staying here!

My children and I spent 5 wonderful days in la Quebrada Ecolodge- the "beach huts" were perfectly equipped and decorated with such attention to detail and love, the beds were comfortable, the clear and warm water in the swimming pool so appeasing- it really felt like paradise, luxurious and homely at the same time. It is ideally located, 5-10 mins walk from the beach and from the centre with sodas and eateries serving delicious food. It is also 10-15 mins drive to Las Catalinas and other fabulous beaches on the coast. A big thank you to Carmen and Christian who surpassed all our expectations. They treated us with such care and generosity, arranged an amazing horseriding tour on the beach with Eddy and made themselves available to help us discover the beauty of this part of the country. We truly thank you for this unforgettable experience. Gina, Emma-Lu and Sebastiano xxx

Stunning location right on the beach in a quiet fishing town. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious! Nice and clean. Room had a fan and a mosquito net. Amazing to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean 😊 Easy to get over to beautiful playa guiones by car/tuk-tuk/bus/hitch hiking or walk for 25min on road then 30min on beach (lovely walk!) if you’re up for it.

My favourite beach stay! Staff were lovely. Location was incredible, right on the beach. Lots of chill out spots to relax on the sand, the shade of a magnificent tree. The Italian food was incredible!! Rooms were very clean! I wish could have stayed longer, but I will definitely go back!

Beautiful room and property. Very well maintained. Strategic location only minutes from a variety of beautiful and diverse beaches. A bit of two worlds: in a neighborhood of countryside feel only minutes from ocean rustic beaches and beach resorts. Very thoughtful and comfortable set up in the room. The separate open kitchenette area allows refrigerating local ripe fresh fruits for example which is something I really appreciate. Kitchen is well equipped to cook meals.

Right on the beach which meant we could maximise the fact we were just there for one night. The room was lovely and the place has a really nice and safe feel about it. We loved the cats! Breakfast was absolutely delicious and generous! We loved having a big local breakfast with plenty of choice and coffee as well as juice was a treat!

It is so beautiful. The grounds are beautifully maintained without being fussy. The bars and bar staff were excellent and there were plenty of spots to just hang out and enjoy the view of the water. Being on the beachfront was wonderful.
