Der Aufenthalt in Playa Negra Guesthouse war sehr erholsam. Sobald man das Gelände betritt, ist man fasziniert von dem gepflegten Garten und der Vielfalt an Tieren. Wir hatten das Glück ca. 2 m von unserer Terrasse ein Faultier zu beobachten, wie es vom Baum herunterklettert. Beide Gastgeber waren herzlich und sorgten für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt. Der Strand Playa Negra liegt direkt gegenüber dem Grundstück. Pura vida.

A lovely 3 days in wonderful surroundings

A lovely 3 night stay in beautifully maintained tropical gardens and well kept comfortable 2 bed cottage. Lots of wildlife in the gardens and trees including Sloths. Hosts were fantastic and nothing was too much of a problem. Beautiful swimming pool and right on the beach. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

We loved every second of our stay. Place is run by 2 passionate owners. They shared local ideas and advices in between pointing out slots, iguanas, toucans that inhabit their wonderful property. Couldn’t recommend that place enough and can only be jealous of next guests that will be staying in Maria and Pierre’s property.

Un lugar bonito y tranquilo para ir en familia! Lo único es que cierto camino están con mucho excremento de los animales y deberían ser limpiados y adicionalmente qué hay partes de los edificios que se están comenzando a deteriorar por ejemplo abanicos oxidados, barandas y lámparas!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is a mini animal sanctuary, with many agouti running around and sloths hanging in the trees. Many birds and frogs and even a kinkajou, although hard to spot. The hosts are very nice and helpful, Marise will make sure you and comfortable and Pierre will tell you all about the wildlife. The room is clean and comfortable, although there is no AC, so keep that in mind. It is walkable to Cahuita although a couple more min out of the way than some of the other hotels, wasn’t a problem to walk to the beach, park or city though. Overall safe, comfortable, and friendly, I would recommend a stay here especially if you want easy access to sloths and wildlife out your front door
