Clean rooms in a great location. Beautiful resort hotel. Great massage in the spa from Maria. Highly recommend the outdoor shower after. Good restaurants nearby, within walking distance. Too far to walk to the beach (but that was OK since we rented a car).

Amazing stay at Ecotica. The room with two queen beds was quite spacious and it was spotless everyday. We also were up in the trees where we were graced with squirrel monkey’s swinging in the trees next to our room every day. We saw a sloth up close and white face monkeys every day along with many other animals. It truly was a treat! The grounds were lush and beautiful and the staff were magical! Definately staying her again!

We stayed in one of 7 bungalows which was fabulous. Some of the rooms were directly onto the road, whereas all the bungalows were tucked away at the back, near the swimming pool and close to the forest gardens with it's daily dose of wildlife. The rooms were kept beautifully clean and it was lovely having dressing gowns to lounge around in. Shame no sun on the terrace, but the rooms were always cool... Every afternoon about 4pm came the wildlife show. Each day different, whether it was capuchin monkeys or macaws, howler monkeys or toucans, we always made sure we were there ready with our binoculars and camera.
