very cute guest house, not a traditional hotel. Our room actually had two seperate bedrooms and a living room with a small kitchen. Very spacious and gave the feeling of a cosy small town vila.
This place is truly awful. From the booking to the actual accommodations. Skip the owner is pretty disorganized and I had to contact him multiple times to reserve for two nights.
At check in, I mentioned my wife (I am also female) and he said âoh I donât even want to stick my nose in that.â Totally homophobic and to do that in front of our kids is truly shameful.
Then we get to the rooms. They felt dirty, the bedsheets were non matching and had some dirt in them. The mattresses were from a bygone eraâŠwe did not sleep well. The pool smelled like bug spray and urine according to the kids. I didnât see any sign of a filter system so âŠ. The shower in one room never stopped running and in our other room there was no hot water until we were able to track him down. He fixed it quickly but it was something that seemed like it had happened before. So next time please check on that before the guests arrive. Another note is that there were no smoke detectors or canon monoxide detectors in the roomsâŠthey used to be there âŠ.
There were some attempts at âperksâ like beach chairs and umbrellas we could take to the beach. But when we got there we discovered that one of the umbrellas was for a table and couldnât be used for shade. Aaaagh!
Skip also dismissed the Spanish name of one of the beaches. And generally acted like a no it all and a man-splainer. In general Skip was unpleasant and the stay was equally bad.
Nice location close to restaurants, shops and the water all on walking distance. The pool was clean and set in a secluded natural setting. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Skip is the property owner and he walked us through check in and the story of House of Tortuga! He was very kind and hospitable! The room was very clean and well taken care of! He also offered beach chairs and towels to use while there! 5/5 stay!
The room was clean and cozy. All the decorative pieces in the room looked really beautiful and thoughtful. The cottage was surrounded by many trees and the owner let us pluck a few mangoes from the ones next to pool. There were also pool towels and chairs available near the office room. A big shout out to the owner, who not only made us feel comfortable during our stay, but built such beautiful place.
Beautiful room and wonderful host! Property is in walking distance of a lot of the main bars and restaurants and food trucks of the Esperanza coats area. The property itself has a picturesque pool area. We canât wait to come back!
El lugar es hermoso, tiene muchos locales a su alrededor. La señora de mantenimiento fue muy amable, el señor propietario nos tratĂł sĂșper bien y fue bien amable. Gracias
