Although this hotel is a lower price point than hotels I had stayed at in Costa Rica in the past the service and facilities were excellent. However, the star of the hotel is Paco the resident doggy. Very friendly an greeted us when we returned from every outing. Also, contact the hotel in advance and they will arrange airport transportation and tours and excursions. Our favorites were horse back riding and the night anima tour.

Great value for the price. We were highly satisfied by our 4 persons cabin, it had great view, a small balcony and good privacy. The breakfast was fantastic with 4 options cooked to order. Parking was not an issue. Would definetly go back to Don Taco if I retirn to the area.
