Location was good but unless you’re very fit you really need a car to get up from the local beach & to get to the restaurants in the evening. It did have a lovely view from the balcony & there were plenty of birds. Shared garden & very steep path to local beach. There were 4 of us & only 2 bath towels but a quick message to Rhonda & this was soon sorted & we were given beach towels to use too.

The property looked a little jaded & needed a few things fixing & updating but it was clean.

Everything it was a amazing

I honestly cannot rate Castara Inn highly enough! I feel like this place is a real hidden gem. Rhonda could not have been nicer and made everything so easy and painless. Rhonda organised a lovely surprise birthday message on the bed with dried petals for my 40th and also upgraded our room to a Sea View option as it was vacant. And my what a view that was! Absolutely stunning. The outdoor space and facilities that came with the room were super impressive. Loved the apartment itself - very comfortable bed and what a bathroom! There is also a lovely path/ hike down to a secret little deserted beach from directly outside the property. This was a lovely start to our day one morning. If I was back in Castara, I would 100% stay in Castara Inn again as my first choice. I get that it is a bit further of a walk up a very steep hill! But we rented a car (through Taylor's rental) while in Castara, and this made getting around A LOT easier. I would go with the car and Castara Inn option over staying down the road in other more expensive places just down the hill.

Absolutely Nothing

Location is perfect - at the edge of the rainforest with a beautiful view out over the sea. Loads of wildlife on your doorstep - quite literally. The Inn is small and quiet and the owner Rhonda is lovely and extremely helpful and keen to see her guests have a good time. The room we had was fully equipped, had a comfortable bed and nice hot shower. There’s also a possibility to use the BBQ. Castara is likewise quiet with a superb beach with excellent facilities like changing rooms and toilets on the beach for the princely sum of 1TTD per day! You can hire 2 Sun loungers and umbrella for 100 TTD from the guys in the life guard tower. Locals and fellow tourists all friendly. Eat at Ducks for cheap tasty home-cooked lunch and takeaways. There’s a supermarket in the town sells most things but not a great variety.

As commented by others it’s a fairly steep walk uphill to get back from the town walking in the road but absolutely no problem if you are fit.

Wonderfully clean and well stroked space! The private beach is a bit of an adventure to get to AND totally worth it. Castara's hot spots (waterfall, beach, restaurants, etc) are a bit easier to get to by car (walking is uphill to return) but the location is still great. Looking forward to returning!

Alles. Die Lage, der gepflegte Garten, die Sicht aufs Meer inkl. der natürliche sound des Meeres, wie gesagt einfach ALLES. Die Gastgeber sind sehr hilfsbereit und reagieren super schnell auf Mitteilungen.

Everything that you need for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfortable. Also met some lovely people!

As a 76year old I found the hike up the hill quite a challenge but I managed it and I think I’ll be fitter as a result!

Everything is wonderful! The view, the garden and the quiet spot are the highlights.
