Close to beach is about all the good things to say. Large waves not for weak swimmers so my wife would not go in. Toilets backed up repeatedly, reported it before we went out for the day, was told it was fixed and if it continued to happen they would move us to another room but by time we got back after 5pm there was no one at the office to talk too.Room also had mold on the walls in the bathroom and one morning we had no water at all for a while. We ended up leaving two days early and went elsewhere. Went to the restaurant to eat a little after 5 pm and it was closed so decided to go down the street to eat, went got ready to go out after hiking all day and as we were leaving the two workers were opening it up. We said gee we thought you were closed. They told us they were on a break which lasted for a good 1/2 hr or so. All this and you had to drive a couple miles on a dirt road to get there...never again!

We did not have long to enjoy this property due to our plans. Check in was easy. We were offered a tour of the property but we only needed our room and the restaurant so it was not needed. The property has on-site security, the restaurant was good for both dinner and breakfast, and the pool looked nice but we didn't use.

The property is very secluded on a dirt road and you have basically your own beach! The included breakfast as well as the other food we ate was fantastic! The staff was very nice and friendly. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy! Great resort and we will definitely come back!

Intermittent water supply and almost no hot water. Absurdly high restaurant and bar prices. Go to the Mar y Sol down the street (which is excellent!). We won't be back.

We stayed for 5 nights in an Ocean View Room with Balcony. I fail to understand all the recent 9+ reviews for this hotel. I have travelled extensively and I am very lenient with ratings because I want to support tourism. This hotel would earn a maximum of 7.0 rating. Pros: 1. Quite Spot 2. Great view 3. Balcon is large and furnished with rattan furniture 4. Staff all speaks English and very friendly. 5. Onsite free laudry service Cons: 1. Building and furniture are all showing age to the point of needing changes immediately. 2. Beach is very muddy and dirty. This may be caused by the rainy season. 3. Food selection is poor, quality is average and overly expensive since everything is marked in USD. 4. The hotel is located in a non-tourist town and far away from all the tour attractions. Jaconis about 1 hour away and Quepos is about 45 minutes away by car. If you don't have a vehicle, you will likely be stuck at the hotel for the entire duration. 5. Wifi signal is extremely poor in rooms and there is no cellphone signal at all. Must drive towards town for about 2km to get celll signal.

We loved it. It’s a small hotel with amazing service and extremely friendly staff that go out of their way to make you feel at home. If you want out of the way, rustic, and on the beach you’ll love this. Big shout out to Anderson, Jason, and Gabriela!! Gorgeous black sand beach with macaws and monkeys all around. What more do you need?

Loved this property! Here are some facts before staying-hotel was down a 4mile gravel road. We thought we took a wrong turn, but no. It is a bit secluded so get things before you get in and get settled. It was the most relaxed we felt in a long time and after doing adventure excursions earlier in the week it was nice to relax. The hotel handled our COVID tests before our flight and also let us know our son left his wallet there-oops. They were great and every staff member we spoke to helped us. Food was excellent and we didn’t even try anywhere else because it was well priced and delicious-plus we weren’t there long. Security guard to let you in and out warned us to be careful out and about if we left. Monkeys all around and flocks of parakeets and parrots. I would definitely go back.

The reviews made this place sound pretty amazing but we felt it’s not really worth a stop over. Yes it’s remote and off the beaten path but there are much nicer remote places to stop over and get a beach to yourselves. We would not recommend this as an amazing stop. But the hotel was nice with good ownership.

Nice place.
Trees are blocking the ocean so pictures are misleading, but beach is 120 seconds from the room. People are very nice, rooms are clean so no regrets. Ask the reception for Covid test, they arrange it for you. Food is average but pretty much same wherever you go throughout the coast.

A beautiful hotel on the best secluded beach in Costa Rica. Nice rooms and amenities. New bar and restaurant, good cocktails. Nice swimming pools. Walk out the front gate, 50 yards to the great beach. Don’t go here for crowds, you will probably be the only person on the beach.
