Mitten im Dschungel
Authentische, karibische Unterkunft, unweit des Meeres. Morgens wird man von den Dschungeltieren (u.a. Brüllaffen) geweckt. Herrlich!

Great location, but that's about it
First, the location is great. Close to town, close walk to beach and in the jungle enough to see monkeys, sloths, crabs, agoutis, iguanas, birds, frogs and lots of insects. Caretaker and neighbors were a little loud. Outside living area is nice. Inside area is worn and needs some attention. Needs more fans, only one standing fan and the ceiling fans were set to lowest setting so were not useful, stove wouldn't light, dishwasher but no dishwasher soap and couldn't find any at supermarkets, no soaps for kitchen or bathroom, no kitchen towels or dishcloths, no bathroom hand towels, low or no water pressure. Came back from swimming at the beach one day and caretaker was filling her swimming pool and we had no water pressure. We had to go down and turn off the water to the pool so we could take a shower. Power was out when we arrived so had no bathroom after a full day of traveling. We were told that it happens and it's out of their control. No advice on where to go to use a bathroom or offer of any kind of refund for the messed up first night. And with the power being out, we were not able to cool down the house with the one fan. I would not consider this a "Luxury" home. I would not stay here again.

Beautiful setting but difficult to find and check in
Once we found the place we enjoyed the house & the setting. Beautiful deck with lots of birds & wildlife all around. But checking in was made difficult by lack of communication from host. I contacted the host 2 weeks before the trip to get the location & got no response. Check in was 4pm & we still had no directions to the house. I called the phone number of the host in CA and no response. I then called VRBO and was on the phone a half hour with them trying to find us an alternative place to stay. Thankfully our local host from where we stayed the night before helped us by finding the house. He went to the house twice for us and knocked on the door for the caretaker. No response the 1st time but finally he got a response the 2nd time. The house is difficult to find & you need directions. There is a small sign on the beach road but two road turns away on very narrow roads & the sign is quite a distance from the house. None of the taxi drivers knew where it was & we had to explain in detail how to find it every time. The other issue was that the house was not quiet when the caretaker, who lives below, had guests. We heard children yelling & dogs barking several days. Difficult to relax and enjoy the surroundings. There are neighbors close by also, so one late night was noisy. The house itself is nice with lots of room. Just wish the check in had gone smoothly. I got an email from host with directions the day after check in, but that's too late.
