Cotton Tree Cabin at Freshwater Creek Cabanas

Quiet retreat right in the jungle but close enough to town and the beach riding a bicycle to enjoy them daily. The staff was outstanding and accommodating.

No hot water. Just warm

Very peaceful with the sound of the river on the screened porch, so relaxing.

The room was on a little creek. Lots of birds around. Very quiet which was a relief after the cayes. The manager was very helpful and interested in all our opinions. He arranged a great tour. There was free water in the room and a nice kitchenette. We thought we had lost a big amount of money on the islands tour. The owner and manager went to a lot of trouble to help us locate it. Luckily we found it but will always appreciate the concern and help they gave.

The room doesn’t have enough daylight. So it was dark during the day although there is a nice screened deck to sit on and listen to birds.

It's a perfectly comfortable cabin to crash in while you explore. Hopkins. It provides the basic amenities, like a fridge, coffee maker, toaster, sink, and some cookware, silverware, plates bowls (although the range and stove didn't actually work, but I didn't need them)? There's also a small screened porch where you can leave shoes and hang wet clothing and towels.

The shower didn't have any hot water. I'm too much of a wimp to take cold showers, so there's that. The coffee maker and toaster have to be plugged in by kneeling on the floor, opening the cabinet, and reaching to the back to access the outlet. I guess that's just one of the cute things about cabins sometimes. The stove and range didn't work although I wasn't doing any cooking anyway, but it's good to be aware of. Also, while this is something the hosts have no control over, it's worth noting that you can't be outside for even a minute. I was waiting for the cleaning staff to finish preparing the room and got destroyed by sand fleas in about 2 or 3 minutes flat. You have to simply move from your car to the cabin, or back, as quickly as possible when you arrive or head out on an exclusion. But the cabin itself is comfortable. It was a perfectly good place to sleep at night between day trips to Hopkins.
