Un lloc d'estil surfero, molt correcte

10.0

En David va ser molt amable amb nosaltres, va estar atent en tot moment. La caseta és molt maca, malgrat fa olor a humitat (per l'entorn on estem) en general, tot està força net. Hi ha una zona comuna amb una taula, unes llumetes i una hamaca. Teníem l'Skullys a 15' caminant, un bar amb molt d'ambient i un entorn espectacular. Vam veure i escoltar els howler monkeys, va ser impressionant.

Chill and enjoy the Nature

9.0

Schicker Ort zum abschalten. Paunch scheint zudem ein guter Surfspot zu sein. David ist ein toller Gastgeber.

Schad, dass es keine Küche gibt. Ich wäre bestimmt noch länger geblieben…Aber durch die Notwendigkeit von täglichen Restaurantbesuchen wurde es dann doch verhältnismäßig teuer.

Good to know

Kindly be informed that the balance must be payed in cash upon check-in. In case guests do not want to carry cash or visit the local bank, they can pay by PayPal or Credit Card, but both will carry an extra fee.

Please note: allergy warning, as there are dogs that live on the property.

Although there are various beaches within walking or biking distance education, the beaches closest to the property are mostly reef, most popular for surfing. Occasionally one can wade into sandbars during low tide.

We strongly recommend guests considering staying here research Bocas in advance to understand the area, where we are located and the seasons (wet vs dry season, when is it best to surf, when and where is best to swim, etc).

The property is on a jungle hillside. Please bring strong insect repellent, and mosquito nets are provided for those guests that want extra protection at night.

WiFi is available in all areas and is free of charge.
