Castara Retreats

A relaxing break!

We enjoyed our stay very much, the accommodation gives you everything it promises but if you’re looking for luxury that’s not what it’s about. It really gives you the feeling you’re living in a great tree house! The beautiful local birds are everywhere and often join you for breakfast or at the other times of the day you may be relaxing on the deck or in your open air lounge. The only constructive criticism I would mention is that the restaurant needs to be more consistent, the menu is small and offers good local cuisine, but it does depend upon who’s in the kitchen, we ate there three times, two good and one after recommending certain dishes to friends was disappointing. Just needs that consistency from the kitchen as the staff were all very helpful and friendly. Final point, if you have trouble with hills and stairs try the get an apartment on the lower levels! Beautiful location though and Castara and it’s people are lovely and welcoming.

Castera Retreats is an unusual property built on a hillside in the charming village of Castera. Our living and kitchen areas were open to the air so you felt like you were in a treehouse. Every morning the birds came to the feeders hung near each unit and the show was spectacular. Also could watch the guinea pig like agoutis scavenging under the trees, and there was a lusty rooster who greeted the day. There are steep inclines and many steps which some might find daunting. A restaurant on the property served excellent food and the bar is a great place to watch the sunset. Our room, Cocoa Palm, had a woody decor, a simple bathroom, and a well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed a cup of coffee while watching the birds, and were surprised with a wonderful loaf of home baked bread on arrival.

Spacious and unique villa right next to the beach with stunning views of the ocean and sunset. We were lucky enough to have Amar pick us up and give us a first hand tour experience of the island on one of our days there. Would highly recommend a tour with him. We also arrived to a tasty fresh loaf of bread from castaras kitchen and experienced our dinner at the restaurant with stunning views.

Coco Palm

Coco Palm ligger idyllisk til, litt oppe i høyden fra landsbyen. Nydelig utsikt over sjø & frodig vegetasjon, og en deilig hage med fargerike fugler. Kort vei ned til stranden. Leiligheten er godt utstyrt. Innkjøpsmulighetene for mat, frukt og grønt er begrenset. For å komme seg rundt på øya, er det best å leie bil, men veistandarden er ikke den beste! Det eneste som trekker ned, er den til tider meget bråkete musikken nede fra landsbyen, noen ganger fra morgengry til sent på kveld/natt (spesielt Bonfire på stranden - hver torsdag). Den støyende lydkulissen overdøver dessverre fuglekvitter og bølgeslagene mot stranden. Når det er sagt, er eierne av Castara Retreats meget hjelpsomme og serviceminded, og de gjør alt for at gjestene skal få et flott opphold. De er også behjelpelige med utflukter og transport. Kan ikke få rost Porridge og hans familie nok :-)

Didn't live up to our expectations

Beautiful with the birds comming and eating at the beatiful terrass. Difficult to find places for eating lunch at low season. We were very disapointed that there were no group sessions in yoga, only very expensive private sessions. We tried even though very expensive, to book a private session for yoga but the teacher missed to show up. There is a need for cleaning and throwing garbage more often. The king bed were two beds that were seperating when laying in the middle. Difficult to get good information about tours. Fantastic wiew over the bay.
