Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The property is very average for the price paid. The location is nice and close to visit blue water park. And it has its own little hiking trail and access to the river. That is very nice. The service was average. No explanation of anything.

Lovely hotel that was really enjoyable!
We had a fantastic four night stay here. The rooms are huge but a little rustic. However, the rest was excellent. Great restaurant, awesome food, very friendly and capable staff throughout, nice spa, modern gym, lovely little coffee shop, etc. Some great wildlife around as well. An absolute gem in the middle of a rain forest.

The property and the rooms were beautiful. There was a baby sloth sleeping in a tree outside our room, and a monkey by the spa. The staff was helpful & the property well maintained. We loved eating at the swim up bar and the walk to the river was a nice treat.

Great Food and service. Close to the Park
Private individual villa rooms. Large room and love the outdoor shower. Food was awesome, and staff were very attentive, friendly and top service. There is a large balcony, but as for garden view rooms, there is nothing to see there. Thick plants were up to the balcony and nothing to see. Hotel has nice loop hiking trail behind the hotel and trail also takes you to the river, so if you want to swim there, you could. Hotel is conveniently located close to the park and other activities.
