About Cala Mia

Cala Mia consists of 11 beautiful Bungalows/suites, each with its own thatched roof rancho and all within 10 meters from the Pacific Ocean or the beach/bay-side.Furniture, materials and woodwork are home designed and handcrafted by local artisans blending estetics, art, quality and functionality into a new standard!.

The bar-restaurant is built on the highest point of a small peninsula for breathtaking views of surrounding islands and bays and views of the resort’s private beach and the 180 degrees infinitive edge freshwater pool.

A small island, accessible by hanging-bridge, houses a spa, and yoga exercise area.

Cala Mia as a true Eco-Resort is also an "Escape" into nature where you will find and experience birds, monkeys, dolphins, turtles and much more.
 

An entirely solar powered resort, Cala Mia offers a truly "Green" and enviromentally friendly atmosphere.

Catering to an ecologically and socially aware clientele, we here in Cala Mia realize there are certain responsibilities towards the earth and its people. (we organize some programs to support indigenous people: 5% off your roomrate is dedicated to this!) So Cala Mia is not designed and made to become a “hot spot” for Bush-lovers!!

Bungalow Suites

The Bungalow Suites at Cala Mia are all designed as a small and elegant home; Each of the 11 Bungalow Suites has its own "rancho" seating area, with a beautiful thatched roof, handcrafted columns, large sofa and hammocks, and a nicely decorated bathroom with a large hot water shower.
 

All the Suites are less than 10 meters from the sea, with a wonderful view of the ocean and of the beautiful bays, islands, and surrounding nature. Some of them even have private access to the beaches.

Furniture, furnishings, etc. are specially designed by and for us, and made by local artists and artisans, with utmost care for detail. The airy suites are located in such a way that they take utmost advantage of the permanent fresh evening breezes, making its ceiling-fans almost superfluous.
 

All Bungalow-Suites are similar in size but vary in lay-out:

• One-bedroom with double twin-size beds.
• One-bedroom with king-size bed.
• Two-bedroom with 1 king-size bed and 2 twin-size beds.
