Our family had an incredible stay at this hotel! The spacious apartment we were given was absolutely stunning and fit our family perfectly. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, and we really enjoyed the amazing pool area.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel that offered a peaceful escape with stunning views. The rooms were spacious and provided a lovely respite after a day of exploring. The service, especially from the restaurant staff, was attentive and friendly despite being short-staffed at times. One downside was the price of evening meals, which felt a bit high, though the convenience of not needing to travel for dinner was a plus. I'd love to return and see how busy it gets during peak season.

I had a lovely three-night stay at this hotel, enjoying a spacious room with stunning views and a large balcony where I spotted capuchin monkeys.

I had a wonderful time at this beautiful property in the heart of Costa Rica. The hotel offers stunning views and is nestled in lush surroundings, making it quite picturesque.

The hotel is a beautiful place that offers amazing wildlife encounters, with monkeys visiting daily. However, the tough trail to the beach and disappointing breakfast options detract from the overall experience. Additionally, there were some issues with service and pricing for group bookings that raised concerns. Despite these downsides, the views and unique experiences make it a memorable stay.
