10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing stay at Casa Mia El Cuyo! From Adrian's warm welcome to the owner Marco's presence, everyone made us feel right at home. The Suite was great. The bed is very comfortable. The ventilators were very silent and efficient. It is a serene and peaceful environment. The view from the room was spectacular between the far view on the jungle and the tip of branches reaching to the level of our windows allowing us to see all kinds of exotic birds feeding from the fruits in the trees, it was magical. And their breakfast was nutritious and delicious. The scramble Mexican eggs and the cheese omelette were amazing, as well as the generous fruits on the plate. The whole place felt very romantic. We look forward to return again very soon! Gracie mile."

"Tuve una excelente estancia en LunArena El Cuyo. Desde mi llegada Ricardo y todo el personal fueron muy atentos y serviciales. El día que llegué hubo un corte de energía, pero Ricardo se encargó de organizar inmediatamente alojamiento en su hotel hermano para que mi llegada no se viera afectada. Inicialmente había planeado quedarme solo una noche como una escapada del ruido de la ciudad, pero la tranquilidad del lugar y la amabilidad del equipo me hicieron quedarme una noche más. Muchas gracias a Ricardo y al equipo por su atención durante toda la estancia."

"It was a great place to stay overall. I thought it odd that they dictated have no outside food or drink on the premises. Their reason is because they have a restaurant and white linen. Well, I stay at many hotels with the same and never had to sign a document saying I wouldn’t bring anything into the room. Oh well, I’ll find somewhere else next time. "
