Golden Apple Cottage

"We loved our stay here, it’s a good sized cottage with character and air con in the bedrooms worked well. Tiana was very helpful with any needs car hire washing etc. Really enjoyed sitting outside on patio enjoying the beautiful views. Short walk to town and beach down the hill, if you’re fit no problem."

"Nothing"

"L emplacelent , les hotes, la proximite des plages a washine machine is the only thing missing .everything else was great !"

"Aucun."

"Lovely property, I liked being able to sit outside and watch the birds and the capybara. Inside nothing is fancy but everything functions which helped keep the trip on budget. The beds are comfortable and the air conditioning cool. Tiuana (sorry if spelt wrong) was helpful for queries and organising transport."

"Along similar lines to other reviews, you have to respect the walk, a moderate level of fitness is needed, but then you’re in a quiet part of town with the birds… The WiFi was patchy but never down for long."

"Great little self-contained property. Motmots (x3) came every morning for their banana fix. Couple of local small stores that are very friendly and have some useful bits n bobs, else there's the bigger store by the main beach. We would happily return to Golden Apple."

"Aucun."

"The gazebo area offered a lovely view and a pleasant breeze. Everything was well equipped and in full working order."

"Aucun."

"Golden apple is perfect for a couple to stay in Castara. It has everything you need. The outdoor space is a bonus to sit and chill, listen to the birds that surround you and watch the world go by while drinking a rum or 2. Bruce and his family are marvellous, so helpful and kind. Make sure you have plenty of bananas to feed the mot mots and all the other tropical birds that wait for breakfast every morning. It's a joy to feed them, they will take it from your hand if you are patient enough."

"The hill up and down to the village is a challenge for anyone who is slightly less mobile, so take this into account before booking, however, Bruce and Tiuana do rent cars so if you can afford it, Rent one. All in all, fantastic position on the edge of the oldest rainforest in the western world so what is there to complain about ?"

"Everything was as expected, I don’t have any complaints."

"Aucun."

"We did not had breakfast at the property. The Location was just what we were looking for. Quiet neighborhood. The people in the village were friendly and very helpful. Mr. Bruce was always available and polite."

"For me because the Cottage was private. In cases where you don't want to go to the beach and just stay in. A pool would have been excellent. Also, a little laundry Area would have been nice, because of my family and I long stayed."

"A great compact but still roomy villa at walking distance from the sea. The villa is halfway up a hill so walking to the beach is a breeze, but walking back is a steep uphill workout. The airco is working very well in both sleeping rooms and very welcome. The lady of the house is friendly and takes good care of the guests. Every several days the villa gets a fresh up with clean sheets and new towels. Shuttle service and renting a car from the same host was possible and easy. The beach is very clean and the water is gentle and suited for anyone, no weird currents. Lifeguard available."

"The villa could use few improvements and preferrably a washing machine. Washing can be arranged but in highsight I prefer to have that facility myself as with the swimming and hot weather clothes get dirty fast. The villa is equiped for sleeping of 4 guests and including the sleeping couch in the living room up to 6, but only 3 chairs outside and 4 chairs inside. We stayed with 5 adults and had a few challenges."

"The layout of the place loved the gazebo and that it was well breezy. Great working kitchen and grill and AC"

"No issues The Taylor’s know how to treat their guests and make everyone feel welcomed and have a great time"
