I love it .the staff starting from Jose to everyone else that was there helping us and made us feel at home was very convenient and comfortable rooms and the pool my son love it.i will go again

Lenca is great for families who like remote traditional places in the forrest. The water park, and swimming pools are great! My only concern is that you need a vehicle to move around. Lucky for us, the concierge Jose was there to taxi us around the island. He is very helpful and knowledgeable how to get around.

What can i say. It was rated 8.2 when we booked it but dont let rating or pictures fool you. Our room dis not have glass in the windows, only a screen with a curtain so the A/C was ineffective and the noise not dampered at all. The property is in disarray and the pool/water park was not operational. The property is to far/dangerous to walk anywhere and a cab ride was $20 to the West End and $20 back. The staff was a single teen age boy that was no help in anything except to call you a cab. This property is a hard pass.

The places still under construction, but overall it’s nice and the staff is down-to-earth and friendly. It’s quiet at night and it’s not too far from the restaurants. Maybe a two minute ride you could walk but it’s kind of dangerous if you go after dark.

No one was there to meet us, we waited a good 15 minutes to even have reception talk to us. No one spoke English and there was no food even though it said food was available. We chose not to stay as it didn’t feel safe

This is traditional island housing. You are in the jungle and, from a noise perspective, it feels like tent camping. You will hear lizards, birds, and animal noises throughout the night. The TV from the bar area sounded like it was in our room. They are doing construction and started at daylight (too early for me). The construction is a temporary issue, but if you are booking soon, you should check with them if you are concerned. During our stay, only one person we talked to could speak English. I had to use a translator app on my phone, and I asked for help with a taxi and was told to wait by the road and wave one down, which worked fine. The water park area is currently in disrepair. I would not travel with little ones and expect them to be satisfied. This place will work great for people who have lots of activities planned and just need a place to sleep, assuming you are a heavy sleeper (my daughter said it was fine), or bring earplugs. The positives: Wi-Fi coverage, jungle feel (if that is what you want), comfortable beds with very soft sheets (you only get a sheet, no blankets), and budget price.

A wonderful surprise for an economical stay. Pair this with a wonderful welcome by José and unexpected airconditioning and how could we be anything but happy?!

Ripped pillow cases, loud noises, like someone through a party and they left at 4:30am yelling and loud music..... pool was dirty...noone ever at the reservation desk.
