Stayed Jan 4th to the 8th, 2012. Beautiful grounds, good breakfasts, better dinners. Some other posts I read were that staff was less than friendly. I am barely able to communicate in Spanish, but found that showing an interest in learning about the area and the people brought out a very warm and helpful aspect in everyone, from housekeeping (Doris)...

We had a wonderful stay at Azania -- loved the bungalow, lush grounds (with sloths in the trees!), accessible nice beach, INCREDIBLE complimentary breakfasts (fresh fruit, custom-made eggs), and friendly staff. We loved being able to get around by bike, but we agree with a previous reviewer about the traffic making it stressful and definitely not an option at night... More

Azania Bungalows is a nice place to stay. The staff at the front desk and restaurant staff are very nice. The landscaping on the hotel grounds is amazing. We felt like we were in the middle of the rainforest. Unfortunately, the bungalows are a bit close and since the walls are mostly screens, you hear everything your neighbor says. This... More

what a disappointment... first the good.. nice grounds and clean bungalows. BUT, we felt like intruders all week. The main complaint for us is the service. The owner lurks around the property, never says hello and gives you a sideways glance as you sit in his lobby as if to say"what.. you're STILL here?". You start to feel like a... More

My husband and I stayed here for 6 nights during our honeymoon in September 2010. It is a small property with private bungalows hidden in beautiful landscaping. The staff at the hotel was wonderful! Our goal was to find a vacation spot where we could relax and enjoy the surroundings and not have to do the planning. We would let... More

The bungalows are secluded without being isolated. The grounds are gorgeous and the pool is refreshing. Best of all, the restaurant is delicious. There are bikes available for rent which make the trip to and from town perfectly reasonable, and makes it a better experience overall. My only complaint is the bugs which are very hard to avoid.

My 14-year old daughter and I spent 3 days at the Azania Bungalows in April and were impressed with the comfort of the rooms and the beauty of the hotel. The rooms were quite nice - insect nets and fans were provided for each bed and the bathroom was very clean. The grounds are lovely; it had a nice pool... More

This was a lovely find on pretty Cocles Beach, one of the nicest places we stayed on our three week trip. The location is a short walk to P.V. (about 20 minutes), but far enough away to be tranquil. The hotel grounds were really beautiful, a well kept garden of native plants tucked into the jungle. There's a nice pool,... More

We spent the last 2 nights of our honeymoon here. Bungalows were lovely, bursting with character. As on honeymoon, we were given cava and chocolates and other pretty touches. The room was really clean and bug free. Our only complaint was that the shower wasn't warm. The food here is good value and very good quality, e.g. Homemade nachos and... More
