Yemaya Reefs

I am in love with Yemaya! This was me and my family’s first time visiting the island and this is our new favorite place. The view and spots were unbelievable, food was absolutely fantastic and our favorite part was the attention of the staff, they were extremely helpful and welcoming. The room was perfect as well, really clean and the bed was super comfortable. Congratulations to all the people who make of this place a true paradise, we are very grateful for your service and for making this experience 100% perfect!

Sadly the service and the pricing did not match the view or the location. I can imagine say 6 years ago it really was the place to escape too and relax, todag far from it. The idlsnd itself has been totally disregarded, poor maintence, garbage literally everywhere... no pride in nature , no conservation or maintenance. At the resort the finer attention to detail was lacking ... example forgetting to clean our room, constantly having to ask for water, milk, coffee, clean towels etc. Food poor quality for what wS being charged. Will not be returning nor will we be recommending to others.

One of the best kept secret in Central America. Exceptional all around! It is not easy getting there but well worth it. It feels like you are in a movie set with the perfect beach️ , the palm trees and the wether all come together for the perfect experience. Service was excellent, food was excellent and the facilities were excellent! And the best part, the cost is much less then what you would pay pretty much anywhere else in the world.

An amazing experience! If you’re looking for a nice relaxing vacation, this is the place to be! Excellent service and attention from the concierges and staff, and the food was incredible everyday! The rooms are very cute and clean, and so nice to be so close to the beach and wake up overlooking to ocean. Thank you so much for a great experience and hope to return soon!

Cannot say enough about this resort. The planning of small plane, taxi to wharf and boat ride to the tiny island was seamless and effortless, a great start to our 3 day adventure. Service and staff made us feel so welcome , accomadations so comfortable. If you are looking for adventure with comfort, this is hands down THE BEST. Will definately return!

Super calm and relaxing. The kids that are serving are amazingly polite. Every employee I met from Yamaha reefs beginning with taxi that picks you up from airport is very helpful and treat you like royalty . Great experience for sure

I've stayed at many beautiful hotels around the world, and Yemaya is among the best. The team went out of their way to ensure that we had an incredible stay. We enjoyed the amenities of our room, including twice daily housekeeping services. The restaurant offered a versatile and delicious menu. Gordon was kind enough to arrange a last minute fly fishing excursion for my husband. I just can't say enough about the entire team there. They are top notch! Plus, the property is situated on the most beautiful beach! If you are looking to book the trip and the flights and boat transfers seem daunting...book it anyway! It is so worth it! We are already planning our second visit!

The Yemaya Reefs Hotel in Little Corn Island offers a refreshing alternative to the all-inclusive resorts in Mexico, if one prefers the laid-back atmosphere of an island setting reminiscent of those tropical-island posters. The hotel is situated on an isolated region of an isolated island in the Caribbean Sea, requiring a plane ride from Managua ($80 each way), and then a boar ride to the hotel from Big Corn Island ($30 each way), but the result is an escape from the usual masses of tourists at traditional spots. Little Corn Island has no vehicles, only pedestrian walking trails. Power is supplied by a solar panel plant, and electricity is hut down for several hours each day -- but not at the Yemaya Reefs Hotel which has back-up generators. Guest are situated in separated cottages, with the fancier ones sporting a private pool adjoining their beach-front porches. Internet is provided, adequate for streaming, but strangely rooms are not outfitted with smart TVs. The staff is super friendly, and guests are offer welcome cocktails upon their arrival. The boat trip from Big Corn Island includes transfer from the airport to the docks, but the boat ride can be very bumpy (in one direction, we were holding on to our seats in the yacht providing transport as if we were riding wild broncos). Upon arriving at the beach in Little Corn Island, there is no dock, and so one must take off one's socks and wade a few feet to shore. The food and cocktails at the hotel are pricey, but of high quality. If one wants, one could walk to nearby beaches were food and drinks are cheaper -- but the quality is also diminished. If one enjoys Hyatt Global status, the breakfasts at the hotel are free, or otherwise they run around $17 for dish selections. Cocktails cost around $10 (competitor bars nearby might offer cocktails for $5-$6). No cash is transacted at the hotel, but your tab is paid for by credit card at the end of your stay. Snorkeling, kayaking, and sunbathing at the beach (with shay lounges provided by the hotel, are major activities. Other possibilities are fishing, deep sea diving. There is a village on the island, about 2 km or so from the hotel, connected by a pedestrian path. At the village, there are several cafes, bars to choose from. The massage services at the hotel are top notch, and my wife who is discerning was completely satisfied with her masseuse.
