Traveled with family
Liked: Property conditions & facilities
My experience at JW was disappointing, as I did not find it to meet the standards of a five-star hotel. 1. The location is quite remote, requiring at least a 25-minute drive to reach the nearest town, and the hotel does not provide any complimentary shuttle services, even within the property. 2. Additionally, the hotel’s dining options are overpriced, and I faced excessive waiting times of over 45 minutes for food. With limited choices available, it feels as though guests are confined to the property. Overall, the services provided do not justify the HIGH rates charged per night.

Room was great. Staff were helpful but for this price we expected better communication skills. They should be better versed in English.

Dirt road to go out ; how can you build a property this good and then have a mile of dirt road to approach ? Overpriced for the facility and amenities

Shower space very small, to open the water you will get wet, can’t try it with extended hand. Breakfast buffet underwhelming, limited, no self-service of coffee/capuccino. Omeletes made to order in only one station and they are small. ‘Ocean View’ is not such, with many obstacles on the line of sight and far. No luggage rack in the room. AC control very limited on temperature selection. People are nice, so is the area surrounding it.

Yes, very clean they organized and cleaned our room multiple times a day. They could’ve had more restaurants open. Some music down at the pool would’ve been nice. Apparently we went during their lowest season and it was only about 5 to 10% occupied so it was pretty quiet. There was a minor construction that disrupted our afternoon one day with some very loud pressure washers. It’d be nice if they had a club with music and dance floor . but they did upgrade us when we got there to a better room with an ocean view. I was very appreciated of that.

We had minor issues with AC being always on, and the thermostats not kicking in. There was also a clog in the AC unit and cause leaking from the ceiling. The road to the resort needs work. There is a 10 minute stretch that’s really nerve wracking if you are coming in for the first time when it’s dark, and you worry about the damage to the vehicle. Other than that, it’s a great place and does deserve all the 5-stars.

I wouldn't go back here. If you're already in the area and looking for a place to stay for a couple nights it's probably worth it, but we did our honeymoon here for 8 nights and I wouldn't recommend staying here for that long. Pros: - The pool and property grounds are pretty awesome - Most of the staff are really nice and friendly - All of the food, although limited (see Cons section), was quite good, everything tasted great Cons: - We did the "All Inclusive" option, don't do this. There's so few restaurants and one of them isn't even included in the All Inclusive package, on top of that there are menu items/drinks that aren't included too. It was also confusing what was and wasn't included, kept getting different answers from the staff, so I was nervous that I was going to get a huge bill by the end of the trip. - The pool was quite warm for a few of the days we were there (early August), makes sense for how hot the weather was when we were there, but it wasn't very refreshing when you're looking for an escape from the heat - I see a lot of people praising the cleanliness in other reviews, but we had gross dark smudges around the bathroom and stains on sheets and the chair in the room. Nothing too crazy, but was a bit gross. - If you're looking for a nice beach, don't go here. It's very rocky, was quite choppy when we were there, and the sand isn't anything to write home about (though there are shells and things to see if that's what you're into)

The property is beautiful, the staff is fantastic, and the food is delicious. The room had a lovely view of the garden from the balcony and my children absolutely loved the pool. One downside: It is very secluded so it is a long drive to go one excursions.

I liked that the property had friendly staff and the grounds were well maintained as well as the room. It was more remote which hindered us from leaving the property except for an excursion. It was posted the beach had strong currents and swimming was ill advised which was disappointing. Also no Costa Rican food options for dinner restaurants on the property and there were limited options close to the resort. My other issue was we purchased “all inclusive “ and many times we were served drinks that were not covered but told after the fact which was irritating. Sparkling water was not included- odd. Overall it was ok, the resort shows wear. If you are looking to get out on your own and go to town- this is not the resort for you.

This property was perfect for our family! The pool was great, restaurant options were delicious, and the beach was beautiful and convenient. We watched beautiful sunsets and had a very relaxing time. There were activities available throughout the day like mixology classes, cooking classes, yoga, bike rides, etc. The staff were so friendly and helpful! We would definitely stay here again!
