Jodokus Inn

What a gem! A small, boutique hotel nestled in perfectly maintained, lush green nature, with a stunning view of the ocean in the distance. Ipe, the owner, fills your private fridge with different offerings (eggs, bread, cheese, fresh fruits, granola etc) for breakfast every morning, and the well-equipped kitchen invites to home-cook your meals. I work on the road, and the Wi-Fi never let me down. Private secure parking for my motorbike was included. Ipe never hesitated to offer tips for activities in the immediate surroundings. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and feel very private. I immediately extended my stay by 2 nights.

I did not mind this at all, but the town and beach is a medium-long walk or a quick drive (if you have a motorbike or 4WD there is a steep shortcut) away, so if you're looking for easy beach access, this is not it.

Highly recommendable, beautiful house and garden and a very friendly and caring owner! We even extended our stay unplanned two times!

We absolutely loved our stay at Jodokus Inn. Ype is incredibly friendly, generous, and welcoming. His house, with its multiple terraces and balconies, is simply beautiful and offers the perfect place to relax and truly disconnect. The property is secure and surrounded by many fruit trees, which adds to the peaceful atmosphere. There is a very large shared kitchen, and each room has its own refrigerator, which is very convenient. Everything is well organized and spotlessly clean. Every morning, Ype provides eggs, cheese, bread, yogurt, fresh fruit, and juice, which you can prepare to your liking and at your own pace. We already can’t wait to return. We had the chance to observe monkeys in the forest on the property. An unforgettable experience!

Absolutely beautiful grounds, attractive building, and lots of wildlife!

I don’t feel that the property is properly explained in the listing. This is not a hotel, it’s a B&B in the owners home. The owner is very friendly but has many rules for guests (no shoes, no luggage on floor at any time, no food in rooms or upstairs, etc) but no boundaries for himself. To access your car (which is absolutely needed as a couple miles outside of town, not .75 as listed) you walk by his bedroom. The living room area is his living room. The only private area is upstairs. There are cameras everywhere but the bedrooms. The “Exceptional breakfast” is him putting two eggs, some bread, and a couple plantains in the fridge for you to cook and make yourself. The rooms are clean but very dated and extremely hot. Think metal building upstairs with minimal airflow. I don’t want to be unkind, the proprietor is very friendly and in many ways the place is amazing. But to me the tradeoff of lack of privacy, extreme heat in the rooms, and distance to town was not worth the wildlife and lovely grounds when for the same price an air conditioned hotel just outside of town with better views is readily available.
