This was an one of a kind experience. Lucy the hostess is very passionate about her job and really cares about her guests. You are always welcomed warmly and just feel very well here, just like in a good family. She is a very experienced cook and makes the best breakfast in Middle America, I absolutely loved it! The other guests here are also very nice and friendly so you get a second home here, very good if you plan to do daily trips to Dominical, Uvita Beach or the Corcovado or Manual Antonio Park. I want to come back. 11 out of 10 points, thank you very much!!

All meals were creative and exceptional. The flavors and combinations were exquisite. The meals were a highlight of our stay and alone worth the stay.Lucy, the hostess is a doll.
