Amazing location and scenery. The casita was wonderful. Simple yet very thoughtful jungle design. Perfect weekend getaway. Restaurant was amazing and staff super nice and helpful. Saturday night there was a cool DJ and the rest of the time it was quite jungle beach vibes.

Honestly, everything about our stay was amazing. There was loud music coming from the restaurant next door but that place had a good vibe and good food too.

This place is simply paradise. Gorgeous nature, amazing food, very chic with full integration into nature. The design of the rooms makes you connected to nature 24/7, we even saw whales from our room. The food is delicious, the menu is very creative and very diverse catering for all tastes/needs. Most important the vibe is so special, the owner Maik and his team really make you feel at home. I have travelled the world and been to very special places, this one is next level. I had the most amazing experience there and cannot recommend it enough!

Stayed here in February 2025 with a group of 12, 30-year old women (bachelorette party) and we were all completely blown away. It is a paradise. The accommodations are rustic and very open air, but that didn’t bother us (may bother some people). The best part is how incredible the restaurant is. The staff were also so amazing. I’ve been slow to write a review because I want to keep this place my own secret, but it deserves the recognition!

The food and location

That the price per night does not include even a breakfast..... .and that you have all the prople going to the beach club next door, come get dropped off right on the beach at Maraikas

Hideaway place with only few cottages nestled on isolated beach reachable only by boat, coupled with 5 star restaurant on site.

It’s more like fancy glamping than hotel stay but absolutely lovely stay regardless

Incredible location and design. The restaurant was excellent. We loved the Luciernaga house, very private and special. Worth the money.

The Luciernaga house could use a few minor upgrades (lighting, shower).
