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 spent a week in a bungalow at Ecotica and had a wonderful time. It’s is a wonderful boutique hotel with breakfast by the pool and a great restaurant. We saw 3 kinds of monkeys daily and Scarlett Macaws and toucans. We had such a nice time and staff was so helpful and friendly.

The smallness of this hotel allowed us to always have a comfy seat at the pool without having to get up early to reserve chairs. If we left for a couple hours in the afternoon, we didn’t feel the need to reserve anything. There was always a place for us when we came back. The breakfast was delicious and included! The drinks were amazing and the lunch and poolside snacks were also delicious. We were close enough to enough restaurants where we could have walked but we enjoyed having a car and were close to lots of delicious foods and excursions!

The bungalows are across from the pool and restaurant that play loud music until 10pm at night. The property was advertised as serene and peaceful which it was not. I had a very bad experience and don’t recommend staying here unless you are ok with hearing loud music and bass thumping in your room at all hours.
