The property was very nice and clean and the staff was very friendly helpful. I didn’t like that it was a little tricky to get to if you’re driving your own car. A lot of people could not give directions but we’re happy to recommend Waze!

Dear Traveler, Thank you so much for visiting Costa Rica and for staying at out DoubleTree hotel. We are so happy to hear that you found our facilities in good condition and that our staff made you feel welcome. Hospitality is in the Tico DNA, so we are very proud of the work everyone here does. You are right, driving around in Costa Rica is different than many other parts of the world. For those driving their own car, it is highly recommended to have a GPS device, or use the most popular mobile Apps available in the market. Thank you for staying with us and look forward to welcome you again in the future.

Our air conditioner did not work and the maintenance man just turned it down which did not fix the problem. We were really hot. We stayed overnight to catch a plane at 7 am and had to leave the hotel at 4:30 am. There was a wedding reception going on and the bass and music were really loud. The staff knew we were getting up early and should have put us in a room not facing the wedding reception.

The bathrooms are hugh. Food was great. I did not like that I had already paid for the stay on the 9th and 24th of February but when we arrived home the rooms had been charges on my Husbands Credit card. The card was taken in case of incidentals which we had none. I do hope this can be solved immediately.
