Detailed Reviews
We stayed here for 2 weeks as part of a 3 month trip through central America and has been the highlight. It's perfectly situated in the middle of the island with a great view, so wherever you want to go it's not far. The menu and quality of food is among the best on the island, with special menus every few days to keep things interesting! Most of all, the team running this are experienced travellers and know what's needed to help you have an enjoyable stay!

The french twins that built this unique place with nice cabanas and a laidback and cool bar combined with delicious restaurant and kitchen at the top of the island. A great place to stay with cool atmosphere. Adriane the host and the rest of the staff is creating a very nice vibe and experience .

This was a beautiful spot and the accommodations were perfect. They have spacious, clean and comfortable cabañas with stunning views and cool breezes. The walk to the beaches was easy and convenient. Naseem was an amazing hostess and masseuse, and the food was fresh and delicious. I highly recommend The Lighthouse for a relaxing getaway! So beautiful!!

The location is about 15 minutes walk from the centre and up hill, particularly the last bit which is through the grounds with blocks used as stepping stones, the lighting is very poor and in some places non-existent despite there being what appeared to be some lights, maybe saving electricity. On my way out one evening the lack of light caused me to twist my ankle, fall and bang my knee.
I stayed in the dorm, I was charged $15 per night with a 5% discount for e-mailing them. Disappointing as there website shows $14 and booking.com shows $13.5 including tax, so better to use booking.com. This was expensive given there was no wifi, no fan, no kitchen to use, no locker, a poor pressure shower, the mattress you could feel springs, the pillow was useless, and the door didn't shut properly and only had a padlock to secure it, the terrace light bulb was out so you need a light/torch to put the code in, the chap running the place said something about changing it but never happened. Generally from the dorm side of things the place is not good value for money, there are private cabins on the beach for the same price.
The positives are the elevated setting on beautiful grounds provide nice views, the bar/restaurant area is nice again with a nice terrace and views. I only ate there for taco Tuesday which appears to be the only night they are busy, the tacos were good. Looking at the menu food and drink appears slightly more than most places but not hugely different to the centre area.
The guys running the place were pleasant, and the dorm was cleaned sufficiently once a day.
But overall if I visited little corn again I'd choose a cabin on the beach.

Responded Feb 10, 2020
Hi steve81278 Thank you for your feedback, we are very sorry that you didn’t enjoy your stay as much as most of our guests, as we can see in all the positive review on trip advisor. First of all we are sorry if 0.50 usd made a huge difference on your budget,sometimes booking.com changes the prices of our accomodation so it s not under our control, we surely will be more careful in the future. Sorry if you felt that the place was to dark, we never had any complaint in the past, i’m not sure we should be responsible for your fall though.... We dont have wifi on site, neither kitchen to use, indeed everything is mentioned on our website. Maybe a little research would have been helpful to your satisfaction as well? We will have a look on the water pressure, and the locker. The outside light is working perfectly, the light was just turned off the only one night you stayed with us sorry... though we’re disappointed you weren’t able to share your concerns at the time as we were under the impression you were entirely happy during your stay Thank you for the comments about the staff and the quality of our food. We are happy that you enjoyed the personal attention the staff provided during your stay

The "comfort double" cabana was hot and cramped with no airflow. Overhead fan provides little relief, only windows on one side and no hot air vent. Restaurant was minimally functional, bar was never open. Cold water only, no internet, very expensive spa services on offer. Dangerous hike up at night, at least 100 steps and not well lit, a vicious dog or two nearby. The yoga deck was only useable for about 1 hr a day as there is no shade, and there's no meditation spot. Hosts didn't really care much about comfort, just that the place looks cute in photos.

Response from Lighthouse Hotel Spa, Owner at The Lighthouse Hotel & Spa
Responded Feb 19, 2024
Dear Daniel, Surprised by the contrast in your recent feedback compared to your positive experience during your stay, we're committed to addressing your concerns for an improved experience. Apologies for discomfort in the cabana. We're enhancing ventilation, covering the yoga deck, and providing exclusive meditation space. If you booked a smaller cabaña, our larger ones offer a more spacious retreat for two adults. Safety concerns about the hike and our neighbor's dogs are resolved. Dogs are securely fenced, never harmed guests, and barking is a normal behavior when passing by. Regarding the night hike and safety, we're enhancing path lighting and our watchman available from 7pm to 6am ensuring safety for all guests. We're actively working to improve service efficiency in our restaurant and bar, open daily from 8 am to 7 pm. Reservations are recommended for guests to enjoy popular dishes like seafood Ron Don made with fresh coconut milk and organic ingredients, delicious vegan and vegetarian options. Guests can chat around the bar and order from the menu. We are pleased to have served you during your stay and delighted to see you relishing our fresh menu. We appreciate your understanding of island norms, like the absence of Wi-Fi and cold water Showering with well water at natural temperature is recommended for wellness, especially in hot climates, as hot water can be harmful to our skin. Your enjoyment of our spa services and treatments with our experienced therapist aligns with our commitment to quality treatments at fair prices. We're disheartened by your dissatisfaction and would appreciate further details for resolution. Feel free to email us directly with additional feedback. We take pride in unique treatments like our "Take Me to Paradise" chocolate massage featuring organic cocoa from a farm in Nicaragua, ensuring a memorable and affordable experience. Hope to welcome you back and exceed expectations. Best regards, The Lighthouse Hotel and Spa Management

We stayed at the lighthouse for a weekend and had a very good time. The hostel is cheap compared to what you get. The staff are really helpful and the atmosphere is very chill. Drinks and food are also recomendable. If you go to little Corn this is the place to stay!

Our stay in the lighthouse was dubious. We WOULDN’T advise staying there. The view and the domain is very beautiful although some reparation needed on the cabins. The owner gave us a very stressed out feeling by always bragging about the same things. Although we heard a lot of good things about the other owners (the twins), the host we had right now didn’t gave us a welcoming feeling. Also it feels very lonely since there are not a lot of guests at the moment.

The Lighthouse Hotel exceeded every expectation by a mile. Sullivan and Gary, the owners, were exemplary hosts. They made us feel immediately welcome and comfortable. The views of the Caribbean are spectacular from the hammock on your cabana's deck. The location on the island is perfectly situated between the action in town and the peaceful, beautiful northern beach. Climbing the lighthouse behind the property affords unbelievable 360 degree views of the island. Very reasonably priced, this is the best choice for accommodations on the island.

We had a really good time at Corn Island and at the Lighthouse Hotel. The food and service was really excellent and the night entertainment of life music was really cool. Next time in paradise on corn island we will book the Lighthouse again! Thank you very much for such a great experience!

I originally booked for 8 nights and extended to two weeks, this speaks volumes for how truly amazing this place is.
The lighthouse Hotel is situated at the highest point on the island which gives you stunning views and a good welcoming breeze! The rooms are clean and have plenty of space to unpack your belongings. They don't have lockers but you can keep your belongings behind the hotel reception which is very secure and safe. My bed was made daily with fresh linen something I have never had before. They have a great laundry service too, my clothes where brought back fresh and ironed.
The Staff are simply amazing and what gives this beautiful hotel its heart and soul. They are very welcoming and helpful so you can have fun and get the best out of your vacation. Gary, Sully, Jimmy and Emily go above and beyond, I can't thank them enough for making my trip so great. Horse Riding was a massive highlight for me and a great way to see Little Corn. Other activities which can be organised from the hotel is a fun beach trip, fishing, snorkeling and diving. I can also recommend Jimmy's sunrise Yoga, it really wakens you up for a fun day, the view on the deck is amazing and Jimmy is a fab instructor. I hadn't done much Yoga in the past but this as inspired me to continue when I'm home. The Lighthouse Cat is also super cute and friendly.
The food at the lighthouse is a taste sensation, fresh fish, fresh lobster, succulent steak and good pasta. The breakfast are brilliant too and I can recommends Emily's burrito is a hangover saver!
I cried saying goodbye, I hope to return soon - Book the Lighthouse you won't regret it!!!!!
