Castillo Oasis

We loved it! Forget about standard star system… it’s something absolutely different. Almost a tree house, terrace, hammocks. It’s backpacking ++++ completely in the spirit of Zipolite!

Please the only thing why we won’t put a 10: could you just make the shower a bit better? Pressure…. Same for the sink…

Castillo Oasis is a lovingly custom built "castle" created with architectural elements of the area (such as thatch roofs and wooden terraces). There are nice details all over the place, such as gemstone or sea shells in the walls. The whole place creates a super relaxed atmosphere. The beach is just a 2min walk away and you have restaurants and a small shop right outside the door. The noise level was OK, no loud bars or anything that kept us up at night. The owner is super friendly and very eager to help with tips around your trip. She also helped us book a whale watching tour where we saw dolphins, whales and turtles. I can recommend the place and would stay there again.

There are quite some mosquitos in the area. Thankfully the beds are equipped with good mosquito nets but somehow we didn't seal ours properly at the entrances so we got a couple of stings. Wifi was not great. It should be noted that if you want to pay with credit card you'll be charged an additional 5% - so make sure to bring enough cash to avoid the surcharge.

Amazing location, beautiful interior, extremely helpful and friendly host

Can't think of anything except for insects in the bathroom

The owner Corrina is lovely, so helpful and friendly and will put herself out to help you. The room was really nice, large with lots of storage space, light and airy with opening windows and fly screens. The bed had a large mosquito net and there was seating and hammocks outside. The WiFi was good and there is even a fridge for guests use. The animals who live there are a delight. Everywhere is kept very clean. You are just steps away from the beach, shops and restaurants. Water pressure was good. We wanted to stay longer but she was fully booked.

Nothing.

The owner, Cori, is super nice and allowed me to check in earlier without any problems. The hotel is super close to the beach and there is a store right in front which is very convenient. The place has a very nice vibe 100% recommended if traveling solo.

Nothing really. I enjoyed staying there a lot eventually though I’m a little picky.

Gorgeous little oasis with hammocks on the veranda, can hear the crickets in the evening. The host, Corrina, is very friendly and welcoming.
