Well, when we left 6 months earlier we said we would be back. Little did we know it would be so soon. But that's the draw for us of Castara. Simply beautiful! Once again the accommodation provided everything we required. Great location for a quick walk to a heavenly beach, great snorkelling, and when you are done in the sea,... More

My friend and I returned to Castara last month since we loved the little village, the people in it, the food, the views and of course Yvonne and Chris at Carpe Diem. We travel often and this is one of the first times we have returned to a place we have already been. We plan on making this a yearly... More

Spent a comfortable week in Carpe Diem apartment with added bonus of having Chris and Yvonne at hand to advise and recommend local places to explore and visit. They were very welcoming and we felt right at home as soon as we arrived. The apartment was well equipped and clean. Castara itself was the perfect location for getting away from... More

The apartment was bigger than we had imagined, well thought out and the location is perfect; with rainforest and beaches what more can you want! Feeding the exotic birds and fruit bats and watching the... More

Just got back to cold, wet, grey UK - a whole world away from Carpe Diem. What a great place, everyone so friendly; Chris & Yvonne were great hosts, always on hand if you wanted them and BBQ on their deck watching the sun go down. I can only echo what everyone else says and will definitely be returning. I... More
