Hotel Banana Azul - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"I can’t say enough about the property and the staff. We stayed in the Caribbean breeze cabin for 6 nights and it was an amazing experience. You are about 7 minutes from town in a beautifully manicured area which the staff takes care of all day long. The property is tucked just into the jungle off the beach so you get the best of both worlds. This is a place that will always hold a special place in our hearts and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable experience."

"Breakfast was always good. The property is a 7 minute walk to Playa Negra- which is a quite lovely beach. They have bikes at the hotel you can borrow which I used to go to the Playa Cochles (20 minutes) and Puerto Viejo (about 7 minutes). They pool there is very nice. I spent most of my time in the beach. The place was quiet and I slept very well. Having a/c was great- I dobt think I could have done without it and was a big reason why I decided to stay here. In short, highly recommend!"

"Air conditioning was such a blessing here! The food and drinks were on par with the best in the area. We had a nice private beach area as well. Pool was colder than the ocean and thank goodness it was because it was very warm out when we arrived. The hotel was more quiet than being within all the bars and restaurants but close enough to enjoy at our leisure which we really appreciated. The staff especially Yusmary was very considerate and helpful. We wouldn’t change a thing about our choice to stay here."
