"Beautiful space with an incredibly kind staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The chambers are wonderfully designed, and spacious. Everything is well maintained, and the cooking is absolutely wonderful. If you can, definitely go full-board. The surrounding town and mangroves are beautiful, and all the lodge's activities are thoughtfully planned, authentic, and easy to coordinate. Am planning on returning as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone there (!)"

"The Sarahma Lodge is a little gem. The host Amy is very welcoming and a great cook, every meal was special. The setting on the banks of the lagoon is great. The rooms are simple, but clean and pleasant. And its great value, much better than the 'Ecolodge' next door!"
