This Isla Grande ecotourism option is run by the charming Ana Rosa. It's all very basic and rustic, but it's a wonderful place to disconnect from the world. Canoe tours are offered on the nearby lagoons; there's good snorkeling nearby; and you're just a five-minute walk away from Playa Bonita, the best on the island.
