We stayed here back at the end of August for 1 night and had a great time! The property was beautiful, the rooms clean, the A/C cold, delicious food for breakfast, and I loved having the beer fridge near to grab a cold one. Herbie & Erika were great host, and I'd definitely come back!
We stayed two nights, have to admit the drive there was challenging, however once there, the location over looking the area around Boca Chica and the water was spectacular. The owners, well,, very passionate about seeing after us. 2 outstanding breakfast. They informed us about areas of interest around the area, whale watching (8 - 10 sightings, may have been same whale, doubtful with the area the captain covered), told us the best restaurants to go to, and conversation during breakfast was entertaining and informative. They explained all the animals to hear, pointed out a sloth, various birds,, and heard the monkeys. They explained the particulars about staying up front and took guess work out of the expectations. Bed was excellent, view from pool, the room and the balcony were awesome. Would recommend highly.
My wife and I loved every moment of our stay at Boca Chica Bay Eco Lodge. The building is stunningly set on the top of a hill overlooking the bay and the architecture and layout of the lodge is carefully and beautifully integrated with its surroundings. It felt like we were home, but with expansive views of magnificent grounds, the invinity pool, the surrounding hills, islands and sea. Whether sitting quietly on our balcony enjoying the antics of the monkeys in the surrounding trees and wide variety of colourful birds, lounging poolside, or enjoying the most perfect view of the Milky Way at night, it soothed our souls just to be there. Our wonderful hosts Herbie and Erika were most gracious and helpful throughout our stay, from welcoming us on arrival and showing us around, to preparing delicious breakfasts every day, helping us plan our days (visiting the local islands and beaches, dining at the excellent local restaurants) and entertaining us with their stories, their charm and wit. When, sadly, it was time for us to leave, they were there to see us off and wave goodby. We felt like family, and very much look forward to our next visit.
Hosts were fantastic, really made us feel at home. Good conversation, plenty of humor, and they made sure we were comfortable in their resort. Great views, huge tasty breakfasts made-to-order. (we skipped lunch each day) Room was nice and had all the comforts you would want: AC, Hot Water, WiFi, fridge. Bottled water provided (and you could drink free filtered water and fill up your bottles!) They make up your room each day and remove the trash. They provide nice towels, washcloths, even extra towels for pool or beach. The views are incredible and you feel like you're with nature with hummingbirds buzzing around, parrots overhead and monkeys in the trees. Plenty of safe parking right out front. They were able to reserve us a table for a nice dinner in-town and booked us an island-hopping adventure with very short notice. Superb! When I left, I realized I was driving slower than usual because I really didn't want to leave.
Incredible view, beautiful infinity swimming pool, untouched surrounding nature, and perfect cleanliness of the lodge. Breakfast is varied and the owners do their utmost to make your stay a pleasant one. Our casita was very cozy and super cleaned; as Herbie told us, it is difficult to set the hot water, but considering such an outstanding place in a rural location, the little daily presents (love the sweeties&cookies in the room every day!), and the facilities (refrigerator, microwave, etc) we can only be satisfied. The lodge is located in a bay and the small village is 5 minutes away by car. Don't expect perfect roads and many services. It is a little community made up of welcoming and friendly people who will be happy to let you visit their beautiful islands
