    What a paradise! Urraca is everything you'd want in a tropical eco lodge. The food is amazing, the water surrounding the island is calm and clear, and Francine (the owner) is lovely. We enjoyed kayaking around the island and of course the monkeys.

    the place is stunning, remote, quiet and rustic. it is magical to have a whole mangrove island to yourself! there’s very few bugs, and the swimming is perfect right around the bungalows. being attached to a monkey sanctuary makes it AMAZING for...
