“Great hotel above my expectations.”
The hotel is really nice and clean. It was maintained and the garden looked nice. So nothing like in the earlier commands. The hotel is a little remote so the best is to come by car. Save parking onside. The beach could have better maintained but is nature that's taking over, not trash. The pool was clean and really nice, pool towels are provided.

“Incredible, felt like paradise! Would stay again.”
The property was idylic, with a lovely pool and extremely helpful staff who helped us work out the next part of our trip. The property backed onto a beach which was basically private, and the food and drinks were so tasty and excellent value for money. The rooms were very comfortable and it was the best pina colada I have ever had. Juliana and Raul were fab!

“Nice staff, good location”
The staff was ok – helpful and friendly. The worst thing was the room - it stank of mildew. the bed was dirty. I had a problem to sleep. Also there was not a single thing in the kitchen. The only plus to the location and nice staff.

“So disappointing - the staff are the only thing keeping this hotel together (except the dinner cook)”
Staff were great - so lovely -and very helpful in trying to make accommodations in a hotel which owners have made little attempt to improve. Staff were the only reason we did not think to leave much earlier than after three days.

“Very pleased with our stay here. Staff was great! Beach was gorgeous! Pool was great too!”
One of the most beautiful beaches we have been to in all of Costa Rica. Private, quiet, soft, white sand!

“Good place in a pinch”
We went in the middle of an emergency monsoon. The Hotel had reliable water, internet and decent enough bfast. It even had a fairly clean pool. Not too bad for an emergency.
