The restaurant menu was very simple and just average in quality. The villa I got had no view of the ocean and when I asked for another one, they claimed there were no more and it was not true. There were several empty ones!!!!

Hard to beat
Amazing place, views, pool landscape, beautiful and first class location. Staff is extremely friendly and accommodating (shout out to Casey). Consider that car is necessary ideally 4x4 as all roads in area are dirt and not all are well maintained. Part of the beauty of the area. Restaurant at hotel is lovely with great selection. A home run!

Very nice hotel, excellent food and great staff. We very much enjoyed staying at the hotel and will definitely return. The villas are excellent with a lot of space and great views. My only recommendation would be to add air conditioning in the living room/kitchen.

Paradise overlooking the ocean!
We booked this last minute as an alternative to our more rugged lodge in the mountains. It was a perfect antidote! The staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful, the location overlooking the ocean was breathtaking. The food was probably the best we'd experienced during out 10 day Costa Rican visit! Would definitely return!
