Fodor's Expert Review Oasi

Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.

Crossing Oasi's picket fence feels like stepping into a jungle garden; just beyond, four lovely studio apartments are calming and exotic. With accents of driftwood and bamboo, petite kitchens, and Guatemalan fabrics, Oasi is designed to give you an intimate vacation. The tiny restaurant Il Baretto dishes up small-batch bruschetta and housemade pastas. Many nights, you can listen to live guitar music under the fairy lights of the thatch palapa. Though it's not on the water, you have access to a neighboring hotel's pier. Luciana Essenziale, the delightful Italian owner, is a certified dive instructor and will help you find your ideal guides. Oasi is eco-conscious and receives most power from solar panels.
