Waterside Inn

The location is excellent, just off the main ***** in Esperanza (its a small *****). Theres a lovely cafe for breakfast and coffee a minute away. Price is fine for the island. Its almost comical how noisy it is at night. Its a tiny island but you have the full range of city noises - restaurant, bar, cars passing w loud music, ppl chatting. It is v loud into the evening. For me, it wasnt a problem and they provide ear plugs but if you are light sleeper then think twice. Not sure if its the same mid week. The room and en suite are really homely, the floor couldve been cleaner. The room retains the cold from the AC, but blankets are provided. The room is a good size. Its like an air bnb not a hotel or guesthouse. Theres no reception desk, but instructions about access were all easy to follow. Service levels were adequate, if they made a bit more effort with hospitality, it may feel a bit less like an air bnb.

We only stayed one night to do a biobay tour and this was the perfect location. The bunk beds were fun and although i was hesitant at first about the shared bathrooms, it worked out totally fine. Rooms had a/c and we slept well! Communication with the host was via text and very helpful and convenient. Would definitely stay here again!
