One morning while we were anchored nearby on our yacht, we spotted some people and semi-hidden structures on the beach. We decided to paddle board over and explore. That's when we met Rom, the owner of the eco-lodge. He graciously showed us around and we were blown away by the natural beauty of the place. The dining platform set in the jungle was especially lovely. We were there on New Year's Eve, and Rom invited us to join him for dinner. It turned out to be the most spontaneous and cool NYE we've ever had. The meal started with the largest lobsters we've ever seen, and they were locally sourced. We also brought some fish we caught, and they cooked them up for us. The bar, located in the jungle, was fully stocked, and we enjoyed a bottle of a nice Chilean wine. But the best part of the evening was Rom's father, a physicist who played classical piano. He looked like Tarzan,

Although the entrance fee may appear steep, it is justifiable if you plan on spending the entire day at the beach. Our visit was brief, as we were waiting for relatives to return from their scuba diving excursion, but we encountered various wildlife such as agouti, iguanas, deer, and a plethora of monkeys. Moreover, the prices for kayaking are reasonable, and the kayaks are spacious enough to fit two adults and a child comfortably. A double kayak costs 15 USD per hour or 30 USD for three hours, which is a great deal.

The warmest month during the year in this area is March, with the air temperature rising up to 34.2°C and the water temperature up to 29.6°C.
