Botaira is a hidden gem for those seeking a tranquil escape from modern life. The beachfront bures are spacious and have a wonderful rustic charm. The local staff truly make you feel at home, and the snorkeling right off the shore offers an unforgettable experience. However, the dining options are limited and fresh water is not always available for showers, which might not be ideal for everyone.

Botaira Island Resort offers a beautiful, relaxing island escape with stunning views and a laid-back atmosphere. The beachfront bures are spacious and reasonably comfortable, but the dining experience leaves much to be desired, and there are some issues with service. The location is picturesque, but the resort's activities and reef conditions have declined since prior visits, which is a disappointment for those looking for lively marine experiences.

Botaira is the perfect spot to rejuvenate and disconnect. The natural setting made my stay memorable, with beautiful snorkeling opportunities right at the beach. The accommodations were spacious but lacked some modern amenities. Dining was simple yet satisfying, designed to immerse you in the local culture. However, I did find that the food options for lunch were sometimes limited, and the lack of air-conditioning can make it a bit uncomfortable at times.
