The guesthouse features two mirrored queen bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms, large open showers, and handcrafted concrete sinks. Both bedrooms open onto a lower terrace with direct access to the outdoor areas, including stairs leading toward the yoga deck and nearby beach trails.



The main living space includes a fully equipped kitchen with a large island (seating six), two bistro tables on the covered terrace, and a comfortable open-concept living room with a Queen BoConcept sofa bed, allowing accommodation for up to two additional guests.



A private laundry room with washer and dryer is located just outside the bedrooms for convenience.



The home is fully air-conditioned and equipped with ceiling fans, high-speed Wi-Fi, and Sonos sound systems in the main living area, outdoor pergola, and yoga deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living and entertainment.



Guests have access to the shared outdoor areas of the Casa Alouatta estate, including the swimming pool, barbecue area, pergola, and lounge spaces. These areas are shared with the owners who reside in the adjacent main house.

Thank you so much, Andrea! We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and the location 😊 We’re glad you loved the beach access — it’s definitely a special feature. Just to clarify for future guests, the access can feel a bit hidden, which sometimes gives the impression of a private beach, but it is actually a public beach access. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! 🌴

The best February!

This was our second year staying at Casa Alouatta. It is perfect! Our hostess was amazing and helped us find all the activities we wanted to do. This is the guest house for the larger house but was just right for us. It is very clean and was cleaned as needed. There are two bedrooms and the beds are very comfortable. I especially liked the kitchen. Great pots, pans and knives. Also a gas stove. We would definitely recommend this house, just don’t come when we want to be there next year!!!

The concierge service was excellent right from the beginning, and through to making reservations for excursions. Maria and Christina made themselves available for help, directions and suggestions. The accommodations were great. Use of the pool and BBQ was nice, the great room and kitchen was well set up with easy access to the balcony. Everything worked great. A better couch in the great room. The cushion keeps sliding forward. The bi-fold doors in the great room need repair. Door sweeps could be added to the outdoor doors?

Unreasonable Hospitality!

I wish I had counted how many times my family and I mentioned that this was the best vacation ever. We said it a lot. This particular property let us live in seclusion, yet only a short walk from the town. The attention to detail provided the ultimate comfort for our getaway that ended way too soon. We sat in our private pool and watched the sunset infront of our eyes every evening. We had monkeys walking down the trail in front of us, and entertain us with their swinging interactions. The town nearby had amazing food, the coolest gym I've ever seen, shopping and the some of the greatest coffee on earth. Our excursion was extra special, and Goose was the best guide we could ever ask for. I cannot wait to return.

Beautiful Las Catalinas home

Our time in Las Catalinas was amazing. We've stayed in other properties here and this is our favorite to date! We loved the outdoor space, including the pool and covered area, including the bbq. The home is very comfortable with a beautiful view of the ocean. There are no kitchen spices/oils/condiments/etc available so be sure to bring your own as well as coffee/filters, etc. We did have a bit of a surprise in that the details of the posting clearly state that if this house is rented, the main house would not be occupied/rented. However, we were met with a group that arrived a few hours after our arrival that were occupying the main home. Other than the cigarette smoke smell coming from their balcony, we were not bothered by them. We were surprised though, so be sure to check with the rental company to confirm if others are staying in the main home so you are not caught off guard.

La propiedad está increíble, muy bien localizada estás a unos pasos de una pequeña playa privada que en marea baja es un sueño, esta propiedad es caminando a 10 minutos del pueblo de las Catalinas, puede llegar por la playa, por el sendero o bien por las calles internas del complejo, el cual para mí es el más rápido y bonito. Sin duda una opción ideal para disfrutar de las Catalinas, y a la vez la casa es súper privada y muy tranquila.

This place is beyond the description!

Very comfortable the AC is nice to have, especially when we were visiting (March). The space was nice for our family of four. I'm sure more people could be accomidated, but we like to have a lot of space. It was clean, beautiful, and very comfortable. We took advantage of the pool often. The location is a prefect walking location to great food. check in was good, Michelle was kind and patient with us, we had issues with the car rental and didn't get checked in until late evening. Las Catalinas is truly wonderful. I was so happy to be here and hope to be blessed to make it back.

5 star guest house, 3 star location

The guest house was excellent. Plenty of room, well stocked, thoroughly clean and comfortable. Private pool wonderful. What was not clear is that although this house is listed as being in Las Catalinas, it is not in the walkable village at all. I was unaware that we needed our own transportation to go anywhere at all. There is a trail to walk to the village, but in the heat, humidity and rain, it was untenable. Luckily, we were there for a large wedding and the Casa Chameleon staff were most gracious and generous in including us in their pick up service. Otherwise, I'm not sure how one would get around without a vehicle.

Great place in great development

Stayed with family and 3 little ones. Guest was clean, comfortable for 5 of us. Had everything needed. Could not really see beach or sunset because of trees but similar issue for most of the houses there. Trail down to beach was cool but is a bit muddy after rain each day. Not a big deal. Would definitely stay again. Thanks Maria as mgr who was very good communicator.

Perfect for us

We had been wanting to check out us Catalinas for a while and decided to rent this property and stay for a few days to give us a feel of the town. Casa Alouatta guest house was just what we needed and it was in the perfect location. We could walk down a short path to the beach or walk into the main part of town on the streets. The property was gorgeous and well appointed. We would definitely stay here again or rent the main house if we needed more space. The rental Company was great and was very accessible for all of our questions. Thank you So much!
