Book Cantón Hojancha Hotels

"Overall the place was great, great people and very well organized. The only beef I have is that the AC in the rooms were poor and the property needs an ATM. Otherwise, I loved my stay, the food and the pool!!!!"

"This property was beyond our expectations. The property was gorgeous and convenient to local beaches. Alex and Jenny prepared wonderful meals and attended to all of our needs. Laura was great at communicating and helped us line up all of our excursions. 10/10"

"Beautiful property. An oasis a couple miles from Sámara, short walk to the beach - highly recommend! "

"Quiet. Great location. Loved the remote feeling"

"Was a bit disappointed with our stay here. I’d read that the rooms were a bit dated, but it was rundown in aspects as well. The window in our bathroom had a broken hinge, the towels were old and tattered, the faucet discoloured, but the worst part was the bugs in the room. There was an ant (?) infestation - they’d burrowed a few holes into the bathroom doorframe and they were coming in and out of them and we found them in various places around the room. There were other various bugs we found over the three nights, so never felt settled. I know this is a tropical area, but we didn’t encounter this to this degree elsewhere. That said, the staff were very nice and when we went to the front desk about the ants they came and sprayed the room. Unfortunately, we still found stragglers and other new bugs during the rest of our stay. The hotel is within walking distance to a beach, but we ultimately preferred other beaches with vendors and amenities, which required a drive either to Carrillo or central Samara. "

"The property is beautiful and the location is great for exploring the north side of town. Staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel itself could use a refresh. It is for sale so I suspect that will not happen until it has a new owner. My only real issue was lack of table space in the rooms to place keys, books, sunglasses, etc. Hotel services are limited. The coffee/juice bar didn’t open until around 9 a.m. So early risers need to go out (there are espresso pods available in the main shared space). Not a big deal as there are plenty of places nearby. No laundry service available. You have to go to the full service Super Wash a few buildings down. That wasn’t great as many pieces of clothing went missing. All in all it is a really nice spot. It could be great with just a few extra touches."

"The room was wonderful and bright. The staff did an amazing job at cleaning it and keeping it fresh. the entirety of the gilded iguana staff was kind and helpful. the breakfast was delicious and there was a variety of good eat options. the whole resort was well air conditioned and we never felt hot for a second while in our room. The kids club is amazing and the pool is pristine and the perfect temperature. and it is only a five minute walk away from a stunning beach. i definitely recommend the gilded iguana."

"Very cool place. Unique and beautiful. My kids loved the pool area, the pool table and swings chairs. Beds were very comfortable and the coffee machine with coffee at the hut was a nice surprise "
