Things we loved-
Mar’s breakfasts were incredible, she’s a fantastic chef. Eating outdoors each morning next to the pool was lovely.
The room was spotless and well laid out.
The location is quiet and easily accessible from San Pedro.
Marbucks is a great addition to the property.
Rob and Mar helped arrange a golf cart for us on two days and gave local tips which was very much appreciated.
We felt very safe.
Things we didn’t love-
Although the Thursday night wine starts at 4.30pm they are actually setting up from about 1.30pm. This means that Thursday relaxing by the pool is more like feeling you are in their way while they set up for an event.
It’s unclear how coffee charging works. When we checked out, there were a couple of additional coffees on our bill that we thought had been part of breakfast. Additionally, Marbucks closes around 2pm each day and there are not tea/coffee facilities in the room.
On the Saturday of our stay, Mar basically advised us not to be there for the day as she was having 25 friends round for pedicures, Botox and spa treatments. When we go back around 4.30pm they were still there and a table had been moved off of our private terrace so we couldn’t even sit there. So this was the second of five days where time around the dipping pool wasn’t really accessible.
There is no bug screen into the room and there are lots of bugs.
Our top restaurant was Ají Tapa. It’s delicious.
The snorkel trip to Shark Ray alley is fantastic.
FYI- there is lots of seaweed on the island. This means that swimming isn’t really possible at the beach right by the bed and breakfast. However, The Secret Beach is about 15 mins away by golf cart and the swimming is lovely there.
