At the hotel we had seen more wildlife than in the national Park. The layout of the hotel is excellent. It's in a great location. The rooms were clean and super comfortable and this is a place where we probably going to come back again!

What stood out to us was how clean everything was—the room, pool, and hallways were spotless. We had an amazing stay, and it’s conveniently located just a short drive from the Quepos Malecón area and Manuel Antonio National Park.

We enjoyed our stay here. Location is fantastic with lots of restaurants nearby. We found more monkeys in the resort than in the rainforest, which the kids enjoyed. Very easy to get to the town Quepos nearby to experience life like the locals do. Depending on the beach you want to go, they are within 3-5 mins drive. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend

Nice experience. Hotel is a little dated, but the value was good, the employees were friendly, and the location is great - close to restaurants, amazing sunsets, and Manuel Antonio. The pool feels super secluded, and the monkeys put on a show for us!! Definitely recommend!

Allison at the reception and Moises at La Pola went above and beyond and provided a great experience at their hotel. The place is very well maintained and the bungalows are superb! Highly recommend this if visiting this area. Capucchino monkeys were around to give us a great welcome!
