a gem

this is such a beautiful space with kind and courteous staff. The resort is so serene and beautiful, and rich with wild costa rican nature. Just the occasional inconsistencies with the cleanliness of the floors, and odors in the room, that could be resolved with more attention to cleaning and by providing air fresheners - that was my only critique. As the resort is often fully booked because it's truly a gem.

The property was beautiful, peaceful, and most hang out spots were open air style. The staff were so friendly, cute dogs on site, and the response to arriving the premises was amazing. Only thing was the first night we arrived (after a 20 hour commute) we went to use the shower and noticed the shower handle wasn’t paved flatly against the wall, to which numerous mosquitos came out to greet us. Additionally, add said the studio was sound proof and it was not in fact sound proof, could hear people walking outside and communicate through the door without having to open it. Besides that, we had an amazing time here. Close to a lot of amazing restaurants and beaches.

Beautiful place to relax near Puerto Viejo

Alessandra and her staff make for the most amazing experience at this secluded hotel. My room was very clean and beautifully styled with high-quality linens. The grounds, pool, and breakfast area provide excellent spaces to relax. I would especially recommend this place for couples looking for a nice getaway retreat. Note: the hotel is a little further outside Puerto Viejo on a quiet road, you can park your car or Alessandra has an excellent relationship with some local taxi drivers for transportation.
