Although also listed as a budget option, Hotel Belle Fleur also has some of the only luxury rooms to be found in Cahuita itself. Two suites are available here with A/C, private bathroom, and a clean kitchen with a fridge. Prices are $55 for two, or $60 including cable TV. Both have a king sized bed and hot water. Run by the friendly Mustafa, he can help with tour bookings and local information. The hotel is situated just 100m north west of the white beach, Playa Blanca.
