Vladimir Kayak and Boat

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Had a great time with guide Elio! He knew everything about birds & monkeys, which we saw a lot. Even a nest with baby kingfishers! English was very good and he told us some things about the islands and who lived there. In short: we definitely recommend this operator as well as Elio, the guide!

Lounge

👍👍 I am a local and all i can say is that this place is fantastic. I can assure you that everything in Granada is pretty similar, but this absolutely stands out.

You park off the side of the road where they pick you up in a large all terrain vehicle, then you're off to the jungle! The road to the main l...

Playa Rosada

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Nice private beach. It is located in the Rancho Santana hotel complex and can be accessed across the coast when the tide is low. There are many rocks on the shore so swimming is not highly recommended but the view of the sea with the slightly pink sand is something very good to see!

Flor de Caña Tour

Local history museum

😠 Barrels, barrels and then, to the great surprise, barrels again, nothing else. O. K. a sales room for rum. The distillation is in a completely different location. My assessment is perhaps a bit too rough: at the entrance there is an old, refurbished steam locomotive that probably once transported th...
