Wonderful family stay
We had a wonderful family stay at Pelicano Popoyo! The 2-bedroom villa was spacious, well-equipped, and super comfortable — ideal with kids. The pool was a big hit with our little ones, and the location is great: quiet, safe, and just a short walk from the beach and surf spots. The host was warm, responsive, and made us feel truly welcome. A perfect spot to relax as a family and enjoy the beauty of Popoyo.

connection with nature
Highly recommended. The villa’s concept is very well thought out. The private pool is a valuable feature and offers great privacy. The terrace is beautiful. The bedrooms are very clean. The connection with nature is exceptional. You can hear the monkeys and observe different species of animals in their natural habitat. Highly recommended.
