"The resort is located where jungle meets ocean. It’s more like glamping on steroid. If you are a nature lover like me, you will love every bit of it. My cabin/hut is right at the water line facing the ocean and the back is the jungle and the whole place runs by solar. I got to know the owners of the resort Michel and Vincent, from Belgium. They are 2 kind individuals with the biggest hearts I ever met. Michel would host us every meals and Vincent is the main chef would cook us all the gourmet meals that you could imagine. The resort has hired all their staff from the village near by, and they are all kind and friendly. I wanted to drink coconut water and one of the staff just went to pick a coconut right from the tree and served it to me, fresh organic coconut water. The room is very basic but clean and spacious . The food was unbelievable delicious. Every meal was prepared with freshly caught seafood and local ingredients. The head chef is from Belgium, so all of his dishes were global cuisine. I never had a bad meal during my stay. It was like going to high end restaurants every day. I recommend to try the home made hot sauce that Vincent makes. You can walk around the resort and enjoy the beaches there or there are lots of activities for you to do everyday like tour to Dolphin bay, red frog trail, sloth watching, snorkeling, kayak and SUB , Salt Creek village, turtle hatching.

"A little hidden gem with a wonderful staff and delicious breakfast. "

"Incredible location and facilities. Restaurant food was excellent and very friendly, courteous staff. Loved how the accommodations blended into their surroundings! "

"We had an incredible three nights - from accommodations to activities to food, everything was amazing! Thank you Nathalie and JC"

"We loved Everything. The room, open to the jungle, sleeping under mosquito netting. Looking at the jungle while taking a shower. The common space with a virw to the water. The food excellent, but the staff was the best. If you are looking to get away from everything, surrounded by calming energy, this is the place for you. And they do have activities that they can arrange. "

"The location is amazing with beautiful views and the accommodations are cozy and comfortable. The place is spotless and well cared for and the food is delicious!"

"Staff were great, Oliver took extra care of us and issues that arose. Great location, pool and beach were great. Using their shuttle to get around was helpful as the staff would point out sloths or red frogs and share information. "

"the room was a delight the staff was kind I will be visiting El Jaguar again "

"I had a wonderful fun 3 days here .Dan and Brian are great hosts , with Dan being an exceptional chef . I highly recommend having there evening meal even though it’s served a little late for me it was worth it .The lodge is very clean and my room was huge with an upstairs bedroom and bathroom ,stairs are steep ! As the lodge is all wood the down stairs was dark with a small balcony so not really used! Yoga mats provided for self practice. I loved the location with a little walk up to the lodge . "
