These brightly painted individual bungalows are built on raised stilts and feature fancy gingerbread trim. They are all of wood construction, and all come with private verandas and fully equipped kitchens -- although some have just a two-burner cook top, while others come with a full stove and oven. Inside, they are bright and airy, with either wood or tile floors. There are two one-bedroom cottages, two two-bedroom affairs, and one three-bedroom house. The compound is just a few steps away from a lovely section of Playa Chiquita, and the restaurant here, Miss Holly's Kitchen, is excellent. Maid service is provided every other day. If you book five nights, the sixth night is free.
Facilities: Restaurant; laundry service
