This was the best hotel we stayed in during our 3 weeks travelling around Costa Rica. The reception staff were amazing, so kind, informative and welcoming. The rooms are huge and spotless, the pool is also great - we saw lots of wildlife. They even have a courtesy shower & store your luggage after check out which was a big plus!

The staff here are so friendly and accommodating. The rooms are very spacious. We really enjoyed our stay and sitting on their beautiful back porch watching the spider monkeys play. The breakfast is made to order and very good. The only down side I would say is the road they are located on is busy so you do hear traffic noise.

Pulling up to this hotel on the street you would never guess how lovely a property it is. The rooms are huge, the view from the lanai/porch in the room towards the back of the property is beautiful, and the staff, particularly the front desk staff, are extremely warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. We had a wonderful two night stay and would highly it recommend it to other travelers.
