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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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
Cocina mueve podrido
Herrumbre, puerta lado interno sin laterales para sostener los productos
