Where To Stay

Looking for a place to stay?

In the last 15 months we have stayed at over 60 hotels, hostels, cabana’s, apartments, cruise ships, jungle huts, posada’s, casa’s and b&b’s and we are pleased to bring you comprehensive reviews and plenty of photos.

We are in the process of uploading all of the reviews,  in the mean time our favourites are highlighted and some of them have links!

For some of these places we have filmed funky 3 minute video reviews so that you can get a real feeling for the accommodation as well as the local area.
