8/10 Very good

We stayed for two nights to briefly explore the area and then head to the airport. The hotel is not new but all the amenities were exactly what we needed. A firm but comfortable bed, a good size bathroom with great soaps, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion, a fridge and coffee maker. The breakfast was amazing, and the staff very helpful. Note that your experience will depend a bit on other guests at the property. Our room was right at the pool, the windows are only single pane, so kids shouting and screaming in the pool carries straight into the room.

Such a cool place. We stayed most of a week, and since there are limited number of rooms, there aren’t many other guests, so it felt like our own little private resort. Our room opened right out to the pool and restaurant. Iguanas were hanging out, a toucan visited us on a tree near the restaurant. We really found a hidden gem.

The hotel is a gem at the central pacific of Costa Rica. We barely left the place as it is surrounded by nature and lots of birds. The staff is super polite and warm. The spa, wow, highly recommend the treat! No 4wd is needed to come here, but to explore around, a car is useful

We had a very pleasant stay overall. The location and views are beautiful, the room was comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Just a small suggestion for improvement: it would be good to keep an eye on termites in some of the wooden areas and to make sure the jacuzzi water stays hot enough. Other than that, everything was great and we really enjoyed our stay.

We loved everything about this property so much that we decided to extend our stay by another night. The staff was so generous welcoming and delightful. The pool was fabulous.
