The properly was maintained very well and room service was excellent. The buffet breakfast was spacious with lots of various breads, yogurt, freshly cooked omelets to order, pancakes, waffles, pastries, and local hot traditional food. Rooms were a bit small and were not sound proof, but overall nicely decorated with a small fridge and safe. The resort has rooms on the beach and across the street next to a large pool. Nice pools on either side of the property. They even have staff stopping traffic to help guest cross the street. Only a few minutes from town, restaurants nearby and shopping. Overall excellent place to stay.

The property is a beautiful location but a little misleading says on the beach but really your rooms are across the street from the beach. The staff wasn’t welcome instead felt unwanted. Wasn’t greeted upon arrival felt more like I was out of place looked at awkwardly. The front desk wasn’t friendly either looked at me like why am I here. The scene on beach was beautiful. Breakfast was great but other then that no other real restaurants on site they call the pizzeria next door an on site restaurant. The pool across the street is beautiful but closes at 9pm on a Friday and Saturday night on Labor Day weekend was hoping at least 10/10:30pm. The rooms are decent until we checked beds they were filthy behind and underneath so much dust dead bugs so they don’t maintenance clean. The bathroom was so bad! They have a small window in show with no fan in bathroom so gets so steamy n hot and musky literally water/ sweat coming down each wall and mildew smell after taking first shower, never seen a bathroom so bad with no ventilation. Would I go back there honestly probably not as would prefer to try and different beach/ hotel in CR. Only plus side of this property was breakfast and security is great .

We had a nice time at the property. For the most part it was a very nice experience. The only drawbacks were there was no wifi/internet for the three days we were there. The front desk staff informed us it was out and they were working on it but it never came back. These things happen however, if you market wifi/internet as one of the reasons to book at this hotel and you can't provide it, the rate should be adjusted to compensate and that was never offered. the only other issues were the at the adult pool was not staffed at all at any time of the day or night, the jacuzzi is not heated so unusable, and the room could be cleaner. those are the negatives but the property is actually quite nice. The service was excellent and the breakfast buffet was really excellent! the sunsets from this hotel were incredible.

Overall, we had a good experience and really want to give this property 5/5 stars but can’t ignore some of the negative incidents causing us to only give it 4/5 stars! Staff is mostly friendly/helpful. Pros: The location is right on the beach. The beach and sand are lovely and the sunsets are even better! The breakfast was fresh and delicious with open air seating by the beach. Cons:00 Front desk staff during our check-in needs to be retrained in customer service due to how he handled our situation . He misled us to think that our rooms were in a better location only to find out that the entrance to our rooms faced the street and it was very noisy and loud from all of the honking/truck engines. We had to go back to the lobby to request different rooms and they weren’t next to one another (the hotel does not have connecting rooms in the main bldg). Sergio was very condescending and just didn’t seem empathetiabout changing rooms- even seemed Reluctant to do so but eventually did after pressing the issue. As far as cleanliness, one of our rooms had dirty sheets in the bed and the bathroom smelled terrible due to poor air circulation. Lastly, construction took place right next to our room and they left lights on, dirty floors, and open doors all night. On our last day, during the peaceful breakfast area, someone decided to perform cement grinding making a very loud noise for about 20-30 minutes! This could have waited until after the busy breakfast service ends.

The gym Smith Bar weight machine needed to be fixed. We told the concierge that the left side holding the weights needed to be fixed. Five days later nothing happened. These are new machines. Someone should have looked into this. The night-time concierge was sitting watching his phone in the back corner. When we approached him to ask something, he said, "come here", as opposed to greeting us and moving in our direction. This was quite strange and very different from any concierge I have ever met. On two occasions, the sushi chef with the black elongeted hat, next to El Pelicano was listening/watching music or videos with sound that obstructed the good restaurant choice of music. Is this in need of better management. This needs attention. The parking lot takes more cars in the back. In the back, there should be a second stair entrance with cameras and bracelet entrance. Make it nice. The hotel bracelets should not have size adjustment. The keep coming off. A lot of potential for losing them. Instead, they should be different sizes for different wrists. I write this because this hotel has a lot of potential. It looks great and it's in a great area. Most of the employees are very polite and helpful and I would like to go again.
