If you truly want to get away, this is the place. Don’t expect nightlife or very much of a day-life outside hiking to the waterfall or sitting on the beach. For me, that was just enough! The room/hut we were in also had a really bad smell of mold though I didn’t see any. Awesome staff and the breakfast overlooking the ocean was worth it.

El lugar es muy bonito el concepto me gusto, pero me sorprendio que no tuviera alberca y eso tampoco se comenta en la pagina sería bueno saberlo de anticipado ya que, en mi caso yo fui de vacaciones con mi hijo.
