We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Calathea. The staff were very helpful and amazing. We stayed in the clean bird room, the bathroom was big and we had a nice balcony to ourselves. The only reason why I am giving a 5-star overall is because the breakfast was a bit bland. If the question is if I would stay at this property again, I definitely will!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff (ie: Glenn) were great and friendly. I was a bit surprised by the location when we first arrived as it's in a bit of a residential sort of neighborhood. However, it was not a problem and we were just a short drive into the downtown area for shopping and dining. The breakfast that is included was very nice. There is an elevated deck with comfortable seating offering great views to the west. You can actually see the Pacific if it's not too hazy.

Location was great! The breakfasts were excellent! We had an amazing outside dining experience every morning with gorgeous views all the way to the ocean! It was a spacious 2 bedroom apartment that was perfect for a small family! The staff was great to talk with and made an excellent experience for a place to stay.

Amazing customer service. Beautiful room. Supermarket very close by. And town was only a 1.5-2 mile walk if we didn’t feel like paying for a taxi. Quality exceeded my expectations for such a low price.

The staff is very helpful, the place is cute and clean, and breakfast is an added bonus with wonderful indoor or outdoor seating or in your room. I wish it was closer to town as you need a taxi but then you wouldn’t get the great view.

Beautiful setting and room, totally private balcony overlooking nature, comfortable bed, and delicious breakfast. Was nice to be able to watch an English speaking movie on Netflix. Staff is very helpful and easily able to communicate with us in English. Decided to stay a second night.

Room was nicely decorated. Staff was friendly. Nice view out back of room into the woods. We had a 7:00 am tour so we couldn’t utilize regular breakfast. They made us a sandwich, fruit, and juice which was appreciated, but if all that was done, they could have just as easily fed us normal breakfast a little early. Also, a little difficult to check out and still be able to access your car when you return. Overall, enjoyed it!
