Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unique experience surrounded by a lush garden. The curtains makes a very nice soft light during the day. Obviously in an open space you can't have AC... The heat can be a bit too much sometimes. Just be aware of that.

Very nice layout with two separate bedrooms and bathrooms. The plunge tub was great. Owners were exceptional on their communication and response time. Very private property and there were a couple of sloths on the back tree and a variety of other animals.

Publicidad engañosa....revisen bien lo que reserva
Como miembro Silver usualmente tengo buenos descuentos encontramos a Geckoes Lodge solicitando hospedaje para 4/5 personas. Obtuvimos buen precio para este alojamiento. Revisamos el sitio web de Geckoes y vimos dos tipos de alojamiento una villa para 2 personas y otra para 4 personas con piscina. Decidimos reservar pues lo obvio era que nos darían la Villa para 4 personas. Al llegar al lugar nos dieron la Villa reservada y a los minutos nos dijieron que esa no era por lo qué habíamos pagado , que era una Villa que ni siquiera constaba en la página web. Abandonada con cucarachas . Falta de limpieza. La refrigeradora en malas condiciones y sin internet. Mueble de cocina con un nido de cucarachas en el coffee maker . He de comentar que siempre estuvieron en comunicación y que hicieron descuento por la falta de internet pero si debo decir que la publicidad fue engañosa. Claro otra historia hubiera sido si estuviéramos hospedados en la Villa de 4 personas.
Todos los días salían cucarachas muertas porque tuvimos que fumigar.  Ellos no limpian
