Hotel Tropico Latino - Mal Pais was opened in 1995 and offers the only accommodation in its category in the area. The hotel is set in a grove of Pochote trees in whose shade lush tropical gardens have been planted. The bungalows, designed by Italian architect Valeria Negrini, combine modern lines and comfort with local materials. A typical palm thatched "rancho" houses the restaurant which overlooks the beach side swimming pool and Jacuzzi.
