Best Time to Visit

I’ve found that spring months (March to May) are absolutely perfect for visiting Cabañas la Chicharra. The weather’s just right – not too hot, not too cold – and the natural pool is at its most inviting. But honestly? The place has its own special charm year-round. Summer brings vibrant energy and warmer waters, while fall offers spectacular colors in the surrounding landscape. Just try to avoid peak holiday seasons if you’re looking for a quieter experience. Trust me on this one – I learned the hard way during Christmas break!

How to Get There

Getting to Cabañas la Chicharra is part of the adventure! The resort is accessible by car, and while the last few minutes might be on a slightly bumpy road (my coffee spilled the first time – lesson learned!), it’s totally worth it. Just follow the main highway and watch for the wooden signs. And here’s a pro tip: download your GPS maps beforehand, as cell service can be a bit spotty in the area. The local shuttle service is also an option if you’re not driving.

Tips for Visiting

Alright, let me share some insider tips that’ll make your stay even better. Pack those water shoes – they’re super helpful around the natural pool area. Bringing your own groceries is a smart move since the kitchenettes are perfect for whipping up meals. Early mornings are amazing here – grab your coffee and watch the mist rise over the pool. It’s pure magic!

Don’t forget to bring biodegradable sunscreen to protect both your skin and the natural pool’s ecosystem. If you’re into photography, sunrise and sunset create incredible lighting for shots. Oh, and definitely bring a good book – there’s nothing like reading in one of those hammocks with the sound of nature around you.

The cabins can get pretty popular during weekends, so booking ahead is crucial. I’d recommend at least a two-night stay to really soak in the experience. And while the wifi works, it’s not super fast – but honestly, that’s part of the charm. This is your chance to disconnect and really enjoy the natural surroundings.

Consider bringing some board games or cards for evening entertainment – some of my best memories here are of playing games with family while listening to the evening chorus of crickets. And don’t worry if you forget something – the staff here are incredibly helpful and can point you towards nearby shops for essentials.

Remember to respect quiet hours after 10 PM – sound carries easily between cabins, and everyone’s here to enjoy some peace and tranquility. And lastly, keep some cash handy – while they accept cards, some local vendors who visit with fresh produce and artisanal goods prefer cash payments.
