Stayed here for just two nights, on a birding trip. We're vegetarian, and so eating vegan food was a pleasure to us, especially as PR is very carnivorous. Margo left us food in the fridge for two breakfasts, (home-made quiche, buns and bread, also milk) and by buying a few more things in a shop down the road we managed... More

We wanted a different getaway to celebrate New Year, far from the city noise and crowded parties. We imagined a place were we could go camping in the mountains, wake up surrounded by nature, eat well, and be at ease. After looking at different options over the internet, we decided to try Maravilla Mountain. Joking around, we did a google... More

We were lucky enough to stay at both the mountain and ocean locations. When we walked into the ocean house for the first time, we were delighted to see (and hear) the ocean RIGHT outside. There are chairs, a hammock and small table on the balcony and we spent most of our time there. The roar and murmur of the... More

We stayed in the Mango Room, a small bedroom with adjoining shower and basin. On one side it is immediately adjacent to a valley with a view over the rainforest. On that side one is close to nature, the trees, the sounds and sights of the forest. The room itself is very quaint and decorated with many of Mark's creations... More

We had the distinct pleasure of staying in three accommodations offered by Maravilla - the cottage, the cabin and the main level of the beach house (not the penthouse). And we loved them all; each offered its own unique charms and delights. The cottage is attractive and comfortable with a beautiful view of the mountains. It features a lovely living... More

We stayed for five nights,six days in rustic eclectic cabin in midst of jungle & our last night we shifted to beach house for an early am plane flight. As vegans, we ate/heated our three vegan gluten free meals in a open air kitchen/dining area on a Coleman stove. Meals included soups, salads, spring rolls, local fruits and baked goods.... More

I have very mixed reviews about my experience which to me highlight the need to contemplate if this is really a place you want to go to despite all of the other very positive reviews. If you look at other places I have reviewed I am not someone that only stays at high end hotels and have recommended many remote... More

As somebody said, this is the opposite of the corporate chain hotel experience. This place is tucked way away in the mountains, hard to find really. It is funky, lots of quirky charm and character. To give you an idea, Mark has built a great "cat condo" where two cats trade places being in and out during day vs. night... More

I am just ending the second day of my stay here at Margo & Mark's lovely beach house. It is beautifully decorated, clean, and inviting. Margo's spectacular vegetarian and vegan food has been out of this world! I am just returning to vegetarianism, and the transition has been made so much easier by being spoiled with her delicious dishes. It... More
