Nice bungalow, great gardens, lovely staff (although one of the guys , probably very new, was not very competent) - food could have been better, not much choice for vegetarians; internet was sketchy ; but all in all we loved our stay

Is there an 11 for this rating?? I had a fabulous time at Azania!! The bungalow was stunning. Comfortable and well maintained but rustic and close to nature. The staff were very freindly and helpful. Even though I was travelling by myself I never felt lonely as they were so attentive. The food was delicious and I the value for money was beyond my expectations. I will definitely be back!

We loved Azania Bungalows; The staff was very good. I was chocked to have a frog on my showergel. But afterall we could laugh with it. The only thing is that Azania is a bit far from downtown. In the night it was a long distance to walk or bike to Porto Viejo.
