What guests liked
The hotel is a short walk to the beach with great access to nearby bars and restaurants. (3 reviews)
The pool was enjoyed by guests and felt almost private. (4 reviews)
Very affordable and walkable. The pool is 5” and very convenient. The staff was very nice! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay near el tunco for a day, the room is very small but it has air conditioning.

The container room is compact and convenient, with everything you need for a weekend in El Tunco: a comfortable bed, A/C, TV, mini fridge, microwave, dining table, closet, plus a small sink and portable stove. Great location too, just a 5-minute walk to the beach.

We arrived and were greeted with such pleasant kindness from Fabiola!
The property is in a great location, and the converted cabins are literally the most awesome little houses! Literally all the amenities you would want, but in a minimalist kind of space! Can’t wait to come back again.

I would compare it to a hostel, but individual rooms. It was pretty good. Parking readily available. If you’re looking for the accommodations of a hotel this isn’t it. Extremely walkable to all parks of El tunco.

Second time staying here I would say the cleanliness has gone done the pool was very cloudy. I was disappointed. Hopefully that can be fixed because it’s a great property in a great location.

The Cabins has potential and is a great idea but unfortunately it wasn’t executed well. The drains in our room smelt really bad and there was a problem with the water. The shower was cold and the bathroom could have been cleaner. There were also ants everywhere in the room, including on the bed. However, the location was good and really close to town although can be a bit noisy at night from the road but this didn’t bother us.

The room was comfortable and friendly staff, the pool was no well maintained and it was a bit noisy - other guest had music way to loud until late at night outside their rooms. Overall the experience was decent.

It was a great clean unique hotel and was close to all the restaurants and beach. Good Wi-Fi and pool. Small shops located next door to get water and supplies. Public transportation is right outside. I plan on staying here my next visit highly recommend!

Very convenient and very nice, but the mattresses are *awful*. If they upgraded those (not even significantly), it would be perfect. I’d still consider staying here again, but only for a night or two.

The cabins were ok very small it was just me so it worked but if it’s more than 1 person good luck. The location is right off the road so the noise level was loud! It was cool to say I stayed at the cabins but overall I wouldn’t book this place again. The bugs were intense so bring bug repellent. Parking was tight they have limited spaces if you leave out most likely your space will be taken. I had to drive into El Tunco to park overnight as there were no spaces left for me to park at night. They should have parking spaces for each cabin.
