Great accommodation with private lagoon access. Small restaurant onsite for breakfast (maybe just burgers and salads for day menu). Hotel restaurant 30 seconds away sells beers and has larger menu. Or 20ish minute walk to town. Would go back, so nice to be right on the lagoon

We loved our stay at BoaBoa. Our hut named "Colibri" was private and spacious with all the necessary amenities. We really appreciated the staff, who were helpful and proactive even prior to our visit. While on site, they communicated daily via WhatsApp to inquire about our needs and comfort. The property is on the outskirts of town and is best accessed with a vehicle and you can hear the highway from the property. We enjoyed being next to the lagoon: sunrises, swimming, and kayaking. We would definitely stay again!

Fantastic design, cool amenities (kayak), amazing location (in front of the lake), healthy breakfast. Only complain would be that depending on the room, given the wood, it can be noisy if you have neighbors.

My girlfriend and I had an excellent stay here. The rooms were very comfortable, and next to the lagoon. Views from the room and the property are amazing.
