The rooms are not beachfront as stated but only a simple walk across the street. Resort is absolutely beautiful with abundant wildlife and jungle vibe. Some of the rooms need maintenance and better cleaning. All around great property for the most part. The beds could also use some better love as they are quite hard. We will definitely be back!
This hotel is really in the jungle and very authentic from that perspective
The beach is just across the road so it is a perfect location with little beach bars outside
We saw a sloth on the ground just outside our room, it seemed to live in the grounds
Only downside was the reception staff were a bit doppy and failed to book our rafting despite 3 attempts so just booked it myself - otherwise they were fine
This place was amazing and exactly what we wanted. Quiet, right across from the beach and fairly priced! The food was great from the breakfast buffet to dinner as well as dessert! Every single person we encountered was friendly and helpful! We will definitely stay here again if we visit the area!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Photos of the rooms make it look amazing but this property is run down. To be fair, there is considerable work being done to update several areas around the property. Unfortunately that meant a lot of construction to weave through while walking around the property. Food and pool area are good. Staff are hit or miss. Some are amazing (Francisco), and others ambivalent. One receptionist (Natalie) who was helping us book a tour through the hotel never contacted the tour company. So we didn’t get to go on the one tour we wanted before leaving. Grounds are pretty and beach area is nice. The hotel advises you not to drink the water from your room and they provide a glass container to go get water from public areas for your room, which is a bit inconvenient.
Amazing time here with family of 6. Beautiful property with everything you need around you.

We loved having the beach and good dining very close. The grounds are beautiful and we saw howler monkeys, common black hawks and sloth right on the property. Playa Cocles is across the street with some major waves! Our apartment had a kitchen which was very convenient. It is close to the street and adjacent property, so not quiet. The only inprovements we would like are a replaced shower head and mitigation of the sewage smell (brief) near the stairs.
Great stay, good selection of food for breakfast.
Could use more beach chairs at the pool. Like so often people put towels to reserve them and then aren't around for hours later. Frustrating!
We have traveled all over Central America. We are not high maintenance travelers. On arrival, they had lost our reservation and "upgraded" us to a bungalow. Staff also made the mistake of talking in front of us not realizing I speak Spanish and it was clear they were irritated to have to do something. The room we got had no functioning toilet. I went to the front desk to let them know. They reached out to move us via Whatsapp which we did not know was their means of communication, so we didn't see it until the next morning. In the morning when I turned on the shower, I was electrocuted when I stood in the water and had my hands on the faucets. That's a first for me in world travel. I was not pleased and we went to the front desk, but there is no one there until 7 am. They moved us to another bungalow. That one did have a functioning toilet and a non-electrocuting shower, but it did not have a drain stop in the sink which became a problem because at 5 am the following day, we discovered an enormous scorpion in our bathroom sink. My husband went to look for someone but there was no one there so he found the parking guy who kindly came in to look for the scorpion. The scorpion had disappeared, but they ran the water and up crawled the scorpion from the plumbing and the very nice parking attendant removed it. Then the giant cockroaches began crawling from the bathroom sink and that was it for me. We left. Wait staff is great, front desk not so much.
Beautiful jungle atmosphere. Wildlife animals observed on the property. Great drinks at the bar. Breakfast buffet and dinner was delicious. Walking distance to the beach and other restaurants. The family cabin had a wonderful patio and hammocks. I would’ve preferred adults only. It was almost impossible to be in the swimming area near the wet bar with so many kids present. Most of the vendors on the beach only accepted colones. I would suggest you get money exchanged from the airport or the national bank in Costa Rica ATM does colones. Tips are accepted for room service and meals. Laundry was outstanding! We received our laundry same day service.
Staying in the jungle with beach nearby. Dinner was excellent. Helpful staff spoke good english. Saw a sloth next to my room and some agouti. Worth the high price.
