Other Details to Note

The ferry capacity varies per vessel, and they sell online only 30% of the tickets. Make sure you make the arrangements with time. If you want to fly, you can do it from Ceiba (cheaper), San Juan, or Isla Grande. A few guests asked about Friendly, the friendly neighborhood cat. We think in her best interest, we participated in a trap, neuter, and return program... but the return part never arrived; that part of the program went "wrong." She is living now with my neighbors on the big island! LOL No paper towels provided, sorry. Due to several incidents with paper towels in the sewered drainage, no matter how much toilet paper we provide, and after a few thousand in repairs, we made the decision to remove the paper towels. You will have available microfiber towels. Polaroid stand - only for digital pictures. Just scan the QR code, free of charge! A/C mini-split units are equipped with a protective feature that shuts off if doors or bathroom windows are left open to prevent damage. If you have this situation, just close the door or the only window without a plastic screen located in the bathroom. Washer and dryer available for use and free of charge. Just bring your own laundry detergent. PLEASE: Do not flush anything down the toilet, anything except biological disposal. No paper, no hygiene items, no wet towels, no intimate protection, no diapers. Thanks for your help with this! We understand that travel plans can change unexpectedly. To protect your trip and avoid losing your payment in the event of cancellation outside the free cancellation period, we recommend purchasing travel insurance, which usually costs a fraction of the cost of your booking. If necessary, we will assist you with the documentation on our end. Backup system available—water cistern No power generator or power backup system.

We missed our ferry and this place was perfect for a one night stay. You can wash your clothes, get a hot shower, relax, and walk to nearby eateries. Great place to stay if you are doing to Bioluminescent tour.

Great location for beaches and bio bay tour! Lots of nearby restaurants as well. Cute house with good AC and beach extras were a nice addition to have for our family. The Bronco rental vehicle they partner with as well is great! House offers water filter too. Would recommend and stay again!

We loved our stay here! The house was in easy walking distance of the malecon, with all the restaurants and bars in Esperanza, but far enough that we were never bothered by the noise. Entry was easy and the hosts were very responsive and provided lots of info and recommendations, and were very friendly. We enjoyed the breezy back porch in the evening, but walking to the beach was the best part!

Thank you so much for the wonderful stay! We are thankful for the hosts' fast advice regarding the phone numbers of taxi when we realized that we forgot to rent a car:) We called from the ferry and were picked up by a Taxi very fast. The kitchen is lovely and together with our kids, we made pancakes every morning. The gazebo in the backyard was wonderful for a peaceful family breakfast. We loved walking to the beach. Google maps shows a very strange way, but in fact the beach is 5 minutes away on foot ;) We also walked to the Black sand beach, but that one is 30 minutes away. We and our kids are in a good shape and it was a fun walk on a pleasant cloudy day. Thank you so much!
