It is a peaceful place and really close to the beach. The staff is really friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay there again. ##### Maritza Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DEBBIE 4 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The rooms feel very private and I love the use of local resources. The vegetation around the rooms/cabins really give you a sense of being in nature, and the location is great with the beach across the street. ##### DEBBIE Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah 22 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Paradise on the beach.

The cabins, some 15 or so, are each uniquely designed and named after sea, land, and air creatures. Hidden in the forest along beautiful paths these cabins are comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. I stayed here in 2015 and today in 2022 the cabins and grounds are well maintained and the hosts are friendly and welcoming. I'll stay here again on my next visit to Puerto Lopez. ##### Charles Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly 5 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful, unique, scenic and interesting spot to spend a night or a week. Much to do on sight, and walking distance to the shops, restaurants and activities of the Malecon. Steps off the beach, with beautiful gardens, and many lovely surprises unique to the property. Homemade gelato, hand carved furniture and board games. Truly a magical place. ##### Kelly Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CLAUDIA 6 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved the design and ambiance for consciousness. Owners and personnel strive to help and make your stay a pleasure. Great location. The town of Puerto Lopez needs to work on cleaning the beach. Tons of plastic everywhere and too many dogs and of course dog waste. Locals should organize regular weekly “mingas” to clean the beach. If they don’t, it will soon turn into Atacamez. ##### CLAUDIA ### 2/10 Terrible #### Diego 5 Sept 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room and bathroom were dirty. Rooms without windows and only mosquito nets, it was very cold ##### Diego Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Tommy 20 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good but not great Not quite what i expected. Nice but needs some updating. Service was good at times and not so good at times. Over all good but not great. ##### Tommy Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Annette 28 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staying here was like sleeping in art. The owners’ artistic skills and attention to detail were amazing. It’s as though over the 24 years of building it they took every suggestion and made it a reality. Need a chair for the beach? They’ve got them. Want to play Chinese checkers? Choose the table with the inlaid wood game board on it…or backgammon…or checkers…or dominos from hand crafted wood. Look up and see the inlaid wood, down, the mortise and tenon workmanship…the carvings, the detail everywhere. Truly a work of art. The staff are equally attentive to the details of your needs and truly go above and beyond to do so. Can’t recommend it highly enough using Expedia’s scale. ##### Annette Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 16 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Just spent 5 nights at Hosteria Mandala with a couple friends. I really enjoyed it. During my exploration of the town, I didn't see any other property that I would have rather stayed. It is on the northern edge of the town\\beachfront, but the town is not large enough for that to be a concern. It was at most a 15 minute walk to any place on the beach. The property is broken into several small buildings with a few rooms per building. The buildings are surrounded by various plants and trees giving each room a secluded feeling. I believe each room has its own private outdoor space with hammocks and other seating. Because of the layout, I didn't have a clear ocean view, but the view of the plants made up for it. The beach is right out the front entrance of the property and since it is a little off from the main drag, the beach seems very private. We saw several iguanas, hummingbirds, and other wildlife on the property. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The included breakfast was more than adequate with 3 different options. I highly recommend this property. ![View from my bed to my private balcony.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/976CA8F0B794BE74FB93BE2D6CDA20407EF9123F1686953680931.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Entrance](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/35FA837F0412C775EA03EA5566B273C2EF84340B1686953691695.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Beach view from front of property.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F98195AA78AF5236E18B10D897DD0C4B00EF7A1B1686954310425.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Path between the various cabins](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/595A11C7662B9FD8B045AB6906BB5903538DA5C91686954658529.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### David Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sara 3 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Bedding and shower were clean. The garden is well-maintained and lots of birds. But the buildings/cabins need repair work. Hot water came and went every three minutes, had to jump in and out of the water flow. Curtains were faded and wrinkled, the walls were cracked and stained, MANY doors did not hang true and were therefore hard to lock. In the common areas, the games and books and instruments are old and faded, appear to be unused.… In fact, I did not see anyone use the common areas other than for breakfast. Breakfast was plentiful but boring…salt was damp/unusable. The staff was very pleasant but not very knowledgeable about local attractions/guides. The two doggies were friendly and well behaved, not dirty at all. Overall, I felt safe and clean. I think with minimal investment this place could be awesome. ##### Sara Stayed 4 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria 2 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Casa Árbol Fueron unas lindas vacaciones, el hostal muy acogedor y la atención del personal dispuestos en todo momento a resolvernos cualquier necesidad.

This type of location is naturally inviting for bugs and this kept me up at night. Room was also a little small so it was difficult to get settled in. But mainly my complaint is the bugs. I just couldn't get used to this. ##### Tracy Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guillermo 28 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Muy recomendado hotel Mandala Excelente, hicimos actividades de esparcimiento en el hotel jugamos futbolin, Villar y juegos de mesa.
