The Hummingbird

We enjoyed our 3 night relaxed stay. This was our designated chill out time in the middle of our quite active trip and we did exactly that. The location is lovely - set on beautifully planted grounds with pretty little gardens and short paths into the forest to wander on and make spotting monkeys, sloth, toucan, hummingbird and other birds and butterflies easy. We could spot them right from our rooms deck as well as from various paths and the restaurant and pool area.  The breakfasts were delicious (especially the pancakes) and all the tuna and steak dinner dishes stood out as excellent. Though we didn't really rate the juices and cocktails that highly.  The much reviewed owners weren't there when we were, but they did help us a lot in advance with planning our trip and recommendations which we were very grateful for - and their advice was spot on. The staff on site were all friendly and helpful and the guy looking after the gardens does great work.  The room was very comfortable and had really great bedsheets(!) as well as comfortable facilities so we felt very comfortable in the jungle. It was nice to fall asleep to sounds of crashing waves and wake to the morning routine of the birds and monkeys.  We generally just hung around the hotel for our stay watching the wildlife and popped to bombom beach bar a couple of times too.  A great place to relax. 

Lovely place Stayed in the one of the semi-detached bungalows. Very comfortable with an amazing view. Pool was lovely. Loads of Hummingbirds around so it warrants the name! The food in the restaurant was ok but not very memorable but there are 2 alternative options within walking distance - we only tried one which was much better. There's just one option for breakfast which did change every day. As there are no windows you and your neighbours can hear everything. Unfortunately we had a very loud couple next to us who kept on talking loudly every day and also till very late in the night. In the end we had to tell them to be quiet which worked only up to a certain level.

Betsy and gary run an incredible hotel with stunning surroundings and excellent staff. They provided anything we needed. Great food for breakfast and dinner, a beautiful property to see all kinds of flora and animals, Including monkeys. They also were able to arrange transportation for us when our flight changed last minute. Couldnt recommend this place enough. Beautiful and comfortable.

Excellent place to stay We were a group of friends staying for 4 nights and we absolutely loved this place. Betsy and team were incredible, nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent (breakfast and dinner) and great cocktails! The rooms are amazing - never slept so well.

Wonderful spot! Betsy and Gary made us feel so welcome and we enjoyed chatting with them. The property is beautiful and just across the road from the beach which we had nearly to ourselves.The hammocks were also a nice place to hang out. Breakfast was nicely done and served to the table. A great place to stay for quiet and relaxation!
