Our family LOVED the pools and the beautiful surroundings. The service from Oscar at the pool bar was incredible. The kids loved the FAST slides and I loved the different hot spring spas…I especially appreciated how they emptied and cleaned the most used pools each day! Though the rooms were clean, they lacked the same imagination as the rest of the resort. It’s a large space but not creatively designed with sitting spaces or for any privacy. With the large size of the room, it’s a missed opportunity. When we had a concern with check-in, the manager reached out and provided a kind gesture of wine and fruit that we appreciated. Overall service was good. Everyone enjoyed the breakfast buffet, we especially liked the omelet bar. The food and drinks at the pool bar were reasonably priced and they had decent options. We had an underwhelming dinner one night but the service was impeccable.

If I could give this place 20 stars, I would! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Valentina from the restaurant and Oscar, the bartender. You always felt warm and welcome. The food is delicious and had lots of options. The morning buffet was definitely a highlight. I think I ate my weight in plantains. We also got one of the spa packages and that was incredible. Between that and the hot springs, I was in heaven. There are also animals around the property and it was incredible to spot a family of wild boar from our hotel room. This place is very special. We can’t wait to go back!

Great resort with plenty to do

Stayed here for 6 days, rooms are spacious and nothing spectacular compared to a more modern style room but makes up for it with a balcony that faces the Volcano. There a several hot springs and one has a swim up bar that was fantastic. They also have a pool with a pretty lengthy fast slide, the breakfast here is top notch. Plenty of choices to choose from, the hotel also offers a view point, within the resort, that you can take a 5 minute drive that over sees the Volcano, amazing view!! It’s a short 10 minute drive to La Fortuna so for me it worked out perfectly as I didn’t have to worry about heavy traffic flow coming in and out of the resort. Staff helps with booking any activities you may be interested in booking. Overall I’d definitely stay here again 10/10

Althouh we only stayed for a day but i can easily say that it is one of the best location to see and explore the volcano. We had issue with the generator making noise as the lights were out and they did not take time to help us relocate to another room. Also you can drive from within the property to a point to have better view of volcano. Breakfast in morning was excellent and lot of variety. I can keep on going with pools etc etc but overall a geniune 5 star review.

Love it! Beautiful resort. Some parts are outdated but they do an amazing job to keep things looking nice. The staff is very friendly. The only time we had an issue was with room service. The guy rolled his eyes that we complained about the food being cold. Just recommend going to the on site restaurant much better there!! I would stay here again though!
