Staff were very kind and receptive. The views from our room were incredible. We stayed with our family and the accommodations were very nice.
Meredith, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is beautiful and you feel like you’re in a lush rainforest. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. We ate breakfast at the restaurant each morning and it was very nice - local dishes, fresh fruit and an omelette station. The hotel is located near hot springs, shopping and restaurants, but also sets out far enough that it is quiet and peaceful. We had 2 adults and 2 teenage boys in our group. We all agree that this was a great stay and we will definitely return.

Wonderful

We loved our villa and Luisch the bartender was wonderful. Skip the steak at the on site restaurant.
Caitlin, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel room was dirty, moldy and anti hygienic. We only spent 7hrs in the hotel because of the hour that we got there 2:45am. The photos of the hotel are from a long time ago because the rooms definitely do not look like the pictures. Horrible would not recommend.
Lany, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent Costa Rican experience

Vey private sprawling resort with gorgeous landscaping full of huge rainforest plants and bromeliads, plenty of space between bungalows. Great volcano view and fun pool bar. Excellent staff. Extra spacious rooms. Interior was a bit dated and not the comfiest beds. No mini fridge. Loved the private jungle view outdoor porch and Jacuzzi tub
David, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Had a fun time!

We had a great time. Overall the food was pricy for the quality but not too bad. They charged $8 for water, which was ridiculous. The staff was friendly and helpful. We bought some tours at the front desk which were lots of fun and reasonably priced.
RACHEL, 5-night trip

Good option

Great service but the hotel is old and dated. The room and bathroom are huge and comfortable. Dinner was not good but there are many great restaurants in the area.
