We stayed in of the beautiful three houses of little escape, that are part of a larger, modern living complex.

El apartamento era hermoso, estaba muy bien equipado. La cama cómoda. El baño de buen tamaño y buena presión de agua. La paz del lugar excelente. Cerca de todos los comercios y restaurantes de playa Carmen. Los dueños muy amables. La limpieza excelente.

Mike was a fantastic host. Cool guy who explains you anything at the beginning. The houses are very nice and cozy, enough equipped to make yourself some food.

There was not everyday cleaning. I guess if we would have asked mike he would have organized it, but we thought the cleaning lady would show and exchange at least some towels. It is a bit far to Santa Teresa, you need to have a car to go to the city (watch out, road is a mess full with wholes)

Pretty place, nice pool, great location

Kitchen appliances need to be renew. A small cockroach problem.

Amazing place to stay in Santa Teresa!

We loved our staying at Little Escape and we couldn’t recommend it enough. Mike has done a great job with lofts, the design is really beautiful and modern. The open space is perfect for having dinner and relaxing watching TV. Loved the upstairs too, from the balcony you have the jungle vibe. The pool is also a nice feature, for those lazy days. Mike is super friendly, he will help you in any way he can and he know well the area either for surf spots, cafes or restaurants.

nothing, we would have moved in the loft if we could lol

The property was in a very safe guarded complex, the apartment was super clean and spacious and the pool was amazing!

This place felt so homely, with a big kitchen and lots of storage areas, it would be easy to stay here for an extended time! One afternoon we sat in the garden area outside our house watching howler monkeys in the trees above us, such a cool experience!! The hosts were so lovely, my boyfriend and Mike went surfing together one morning! A great place and would definitely recommend staying here if you’re in Santa Teresa/ Mal País!!!

There’s construction work going on right next door but but it actually didn’t bother us too much as we were up and away early for most of the day.

The place was amazing. The owners were very helpful. The location was perfect!

Perfect escape, cosy and quiet in the middle of nature while being very close to town and Santa Teresa. Super clean and well decorated. The hosts are very friendly and provide excellent recommendations to explore the surroundings. We'll definitely come back!

Everything was perfect

Our hosts were so beyond wonderful; responsive to every question before and during our stay, and had great recommendations of food/tours/fun all around the peninsula. The location was perfect, quiet enough to sit in nature with the monkeys, but close enough to the popular beaches and restaurants. The house was immaculately clean (having a daily cleaner is something I'll miss back home) and very comfortable, our family of 4 had everything we needed there. Our favorite part of the property might have been the pool; gorgeous, well appointed, a great place to meet and hang out with others, and a break from the heat! We'll be back without a doubt!!!!!!

Nothing. It was perfect.

- very nice and friendly host, English speaking - fully equipped appartment with everything you need and also what you don't need :) - nice garden - close to the nicest part of beach - the property is far enough from main road

It is not just this property but the main road in Mal Pais is very dusty with a lot of traffic so we were using car to get to the beach, restaurants, shops although in principle it is everything in walking distance. However, parking everywhere you go is not a problem.

A real gem in the jungle, just above the main road of Santa Teresa, but away of traffic & noise, highly recommended

A new construction nearby makes some noise, but we were on the beach mostly in mornings do we did not bother

We had an absolutely amazing stay. The entire place is just beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. We got to watch and hear howler monkeys as well as a Kolibri while swimming in the pool surrounded by lush green plants and trees. Especially worthy pointing out is the friendliness and helpfulness of the host. After mentioning to Mike that I quite bad ear pain he came back to me with his own medication and even let me keep them after we went on to Montezuma and Uvita. Literally saved my holiday, thanks a lot Mike!! Apart from that very open Host who was able to provide tons of information and recommendations not only on Mal Pais and Santa Teresa but also other places like Montezuma. All in all, a perfect stay!

Super modern, clean and beautiful space. the scenery is breathtaking and pool is perfect!

Great home away from home. We could cook some of our meals in the kitchen. Nice little pool on property. Hosts were great and addressed any issues very promptly. Monkeys and nature in trees right on the property:)

The walk down the dusty road to the beach or into town was long on hot days for the kids so we opted to use our rental car.

beautifully finished and maintained. mike was incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome. we have 3 kids and the cabin easily accommodated us all.

The place is on a nice location and the apartments look really nice. We had everything that we needed and the host was super nice and helpful. I definitely recommend these apartments

We had such a warm welcome from the hosts who gave us great tips and always were open to help. Great to rent Surf- boards directly from them. The house was super cosy and nice decorated and we really enjoyed the small house. Perfect for couples or small families. Thanks so much to the hosts who made our stay very special.

The place is quite and beautiful, Mike and Emilia are very nice and warm people, helped us a lot to explore around.

Modern, spacious, new! The location is close to the hustle and bustle of Santa Teresa but in the quiet part closer to Mal Pais. The host, Mike, is so helpful and friendly and offered a lot great tips!!

The A/C, even at full blast, still doesn’t really cool the upstairs enough for some reason. But I still would go back in a heartbeat.

it’s exactly like on the photos! super modern (which we found no to be that usual in cr), new, spacious and well decorated. a few minutes walking to the beach only but away from the street, with a garden in front and a communal pool. and the hosts are super friendly! didn’t just provide us with a baby bed, but also with toys and lots of good advice!

We stayed at Little Escape for 5 nights and had an amazing stay. Emilia and Mike are absolutely lovely and made us feel so welcome to the area. They gave us loads of great recommendations and had the answers to any questions that we had. They also have surf boards to rent which was super useful for us. The lodges are beautiful, well equipped and surrounded by nature. It’s a very short walk to Playa Carmen. Couldn’t recommend this place enough, we will be back.

Nothing - it was amazing!

Excellent location in the middle of the botanical garden, spacious kitchen, fully conditioned to provide comfort.

As a very recent project, the condominium needs to improve the lighting of the paths to the houses

Excellent cabin, very well appointed at a nice compound.

The kindness of Mike (the owner who was unfortunately not present) who tried his best to compensate for the unprepared bed and dirty pillowcases by proposing to offer a free rental of surfboards. The nice (but small) swimmingpool and the decoration of the houses.

Little escape is not really a hotel but more a portion of a condominium of about 30 units. When arriving, it is a bit disppointing to discover this as the feeling is really not the one of a "boutique" hotel or a private hideaway... When arriving, only 4 beds were prepared while the reservation was made for 5 persons (in 2 separate houses). Additionally, some pillowcases were not clean and when we asked for changing them, it took until the next day to get new ones. Fianally the sliding window in the bedroom was impossible to lock which is not really reassuring.
