Nothing

The manager of the property, Oscar, was amazing. He did everything possible to make sure we had a pleasant stay.

It would be better if the fan could be set to blow in only one direction

This is like luxury camping, where the place is a mix between a tent and an apartment. We had a nice view of the mountains, which we enjoyed from our terrace with a hammock, and we cooked on the gas stove. It was so peaceful. My biggest fear was sleeping without air conditioning, but we slept well. The beds are comfortable, and the fan and fresh air were sufficient for good sleep.

10/10 for el pulpo. Lovely couple who made us coffee when the electricity pole fell down and we were unable to use the communal facilities. It was quiet when we were there. Lots of restaurants nearby. Would recommend car access. Very hot shower, it was excellent. Tents were well kept, clean and equipped with a fan.

El Pulpo is a really nice place in nature with a lot of birds (tucans!) and monkeys around. The tents are very comfortable, spacious and modern. Loved the things they custom made, like the very handy closet. The area is very green and calm, but restaurants and the supermarket are still nearby. The owners are lovely and very helpful as well!

It is relatively far from the main road, so without a car, you will have to make a bit of an effort

The tent itself, which felt also very safe, in the middle of the forest, a cute swimming pool, good atmosphere, you hear a lot of jungle sounds like from birds, frogs, etc. We saw a Tucan and howler monkeys.

There was an issue with the water pipe which has bursted somewhere in the area and was affecting everyone however it has been resolved relatively quickly.

The tents are well designed and does not feel that you're in one since all the facilities such as kitchen, toilet and a shower are modern aswell as comfy bed which overall exceeded my expectation. Surrounded by nature and with a view to the mountain, morning coffee and chilling in the hammock was a bliss. The hosts were also very helpful and friendly. In general nice place to stay.

Just so you know - no hot shower water but didn’t bother me since so hot outside. And hosts offered to use theirs if desired. And we had a car at the time but if you don’t it isn’t convenient to walk to groceries or beach. At all.

Immersive jungle experience. Being lulled to sleep and awakened by the sounds the jungle. Breakfast in the patio.

Really enjoyed getting to know the proprietors of this property. They spent a lot of time and energy getting this set up. The sites are tents, but they are well built and kept the rain off of my head!

When there were two occasions during my three-day stay, the water supply disappeared,( for undetermined periods of time), which affected my ability to cook, wash , do laundry.

The staff were kind and flexible towards my needs as a guest. All of the shared facilities were clean and useful.

The municipal gravel road leading to the Lodge was rough and difficult to navigate with a car. Initial signage for the Lodge was easy to miss. Would help if signs were more colorful with larger print.

Friendly, accommodating hosts who spoke good English. The glam camping experience. Being close to nature. The quietness and the stars. The kitchenette had everything you needed to prepare basic meals. The tent was well designed with lots of shelving for storage. The ceiling fan on the porch was great. Given the heat, the cool water shower was a welcome respite, as was the pool. Laundry facilities on-site.

Location and settings are great, immersed in nature, you can the sounds of the forests at night. Close to hikes to waterfalls and to playa tortugas. The owners have also been very kind and helpful.

Honestly I can't really think of anything we didn't like. We were only there overnight, but it was a beautiful stay in a beautiful area, and Cyrielle was very kind and helpful.

El Pulpo is located in a very quiet, peaceful area. We were there over New Year's Eve, and yet we were still able to get a good night's sleep!
