A wonderful stay over new year faultless Special thanks to Angela Jackie and Robin More

We stayed at the Anima Hotel for 6 days in January 2012 and had a fantastic time. The hotel is situated on the beach and has wonderful, tropical gardens where the individual bungalows are located.

There are many plus points e.g. room size, amenities (DVD library, DVD player in room, shuttle bus into 'town') and a superb restaurant.

Service was excellent - from reception to the managers to the staff serving expertly-made caipirinhas. We dined at the... More

Recently stayed at the Anima Hotel. The location and the grounds are the most sensational parts of this hotel. The location is on fourth beach and quite a distance away from the second beach.

Anima hotel is located 30 minutes beyond a busy tourist village in front of a beautiful ample and wild beach where guests watch the tide fill and drench the wide band of sand, while they recline comfortably in the shade of bamboo pergolas, or from colorful hammocks stretched among the palm trees, sipping tropical drinks and eating delicious local snacks....
