Azania Bungalows — Hotel in Cahuita

What a beautiful place to stay! So much nature all around, look out for poison dart frogs all over the grounds, so cute! I saw a squirrel, agouti, heaps of lizards and monkeys in the grounds here and some beautiful birds 🐦 fabulous!

Breakfast was great, one item was pre chosen(eggs/bacon/omelette etc) and fruit and toast is included as standard 😋 very tasty and plentiful.

Room was good, no insects Inside which is always a bonus when staying in nature you usually expect the odd creepy crawly but we had none in our room.

Short walk to beach just across the road, plenty of restaurants around to eat in, we did not try the hotel restaurant for dinner so can't comment.

We did a day trip to visit the Indigenous tribe of the BriBri people, would highly recommend this excursion! We rode in a dugout canoe down the York in river which was beautiful, spent the morning learning about their culture and trying out some tradi archery, palm weaving to make a roof and bathing in natural pools, we had a traditional bribri lunch made from natural grown ingredients and then learnt about making chocolate which was delicious! The people are very humble and happy to have the support of a little tourism to help keep their culture going. A must do if you are visiting this area!

My only negatives would be that it was VERY hot at night in the room, if you use the mosquito net (recommended) I could not feel the ceiling fan at all, this made sleeping very uncomfortable! And the only other thing is that our fridge would periodically make a really horrible loud noise which would startle me in the middle of the night as I am a light sleeper, maybe the hotel staff can take a look at this 🤔...

Rooms 3 star Service 4 star Location 4 star

On the whole these are good bungalows to stay in. They have a pool which is small but enough room for a paddle in it don't expect to be able to properly swim.

Breakfast is quite a large choice and is freshly made for you. But the service can be a little slow with only one person serving.

The bungalows are quite large but there is no aircon and the fans are poor so you will feel the heat and humidty. And don't expect a good shower ours was no more than a rainspout level of effect. The toilets should have a bidet as well instead of a bin for your toilet paper ( a bit unhygienic in my honest opinion). You also have to walk to reception every time you want to fill up a water bottle.

Location to the beach and a few local restaurants is good and there was ample parking. Due to the location there are some very very loud dogs around the area that bark quite a lot which detracted from the location. I don't mind jungle noises but the dogs distracted from...
