Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bungalow was lovely and the grounds of the hotel were beautiful. We loved seeing the wildlife around the hotel and it was great that the music stopped at 10pm so the grounds were quiet. The only downside was the very high cost of drinks and food (other than the included breakfast which was delicious).

We felt like we were immersed in the jungle. This place is family-friendly and safe. There’s not many sidewalks to walk to everywhere, but it was easy to walk to a few nice restaurants. There are monkeys, macaws, tucanes and other wildlife all over the place.

Moses and Joshua made us feel very welcome together with the staff in YOLO restaurant. All amenities in walking distance spacious room with good views of the wildlife especially the monkeys. Pool was well maintained and of a good depth with adequate loungers available. One improvement item would be a facility such as kettle rather than coffee maker so we are able to make a cup of tea. I would recommend a stay at ecotica and highly rate it. Claire & Sean Fryer
