Very nice hospitality. Comfortable beds, great nature around the pool. Helpful hosts. If we were hungry they solved it, if it was about renting an ATV they solved it. The city is within walking distance. So you don't really need a car. We were with my mother and we were very satisfied with everything. I recommend it to everyone! Thank you very much for the hospitality : - ) Oh and the sunset on Santa Teresa beach, which is 8 minutes away, is wonderful :-)
Maybe there could be a hairdryer in the rooms and a small lamp above the mirror. But these are almost nothing :-)

The location is strategically good, and the rooms are ok. Breakfast is ok. The pool is nice and from the pool everything looks beautiful.
The place where the hotel is very well, close to many interest places but bear in mind the streets around are not paved so everything around is full of dust. It is definitely not the hotel's fault and the hotel is quite protected by vegetation around. The room is fairly simple and some cups and eventually a kettle would definitely help. If you want a cup of hot water you need to go and wait at the kitchen. The hotel staff is ok and they serve you when you request it, but they don't seem particularly happy to do-it. Sometimes you have the feeling you bother them. Some smiles would definitely help.

The overall design of this small property is great where you have cute bungalows situated around a fun pool with everything nicely maintained and lots of lush vegetation! The property across the street is jungle and behind the property is jungle so it felt very out of the way but it is actually very close to the main area of Santa Teresa and down the street to the beach. We even saw howler monkeys on the property next door!!! The community area/restaurant is in the front of the property and blocks views of the main street. They have breakfast served every morning from 8:00-9:30 and the gallo pinto dish is the perfect and delicious Tican way to start the day. They have good free coffee available all day too! Breakfast was fun too because iguanas, squirrels, and magpies would visit next to the patio looking for a handout (kids loved it). The staff was very friendly and helpful and they let us keep our surfboards with the hotel surfboards so we didn't have to put them in our rooms. There is 24-hour security guard so we felt very safe as well. The bungalows were simple yet nice with comfy beds, A/C that worked great, and nice bathrooms with spacious shower. My favorite hotel we stayed at in our 4 times to Costa Rica.
It would have been nice to have TV's that had bluetooth so we could either stream from our phones or display pictures we took during the day on a bigger screen. But probably a blessing in disguise because who wants to watch TV when you are in Costa Rica?? (Although we did get to watch a futbol match)

This hotel is 5 minute walk from beach and from town. Very convenient. Good AC. Simple but filling breakfast. Nice pool. Kitchenette was useful. Surf boards for rent were in good shape and cheaper than renting in town. Soft towels.
Even though it’s just outside of town, you do hear the loud traffic passing during rush hours. Lots of trucks, ATVs and some honking. Very loud road noise in cabin 1. Cabin 1 mattress and WiFi were terrible. This was the last place we stayed at after traveling for 2 weeks. The staff here were less friendly than other places. They did not want to engage unless necessary. Elder owner seemed grumpy and put out when we requested a late check out (1hour) so my daughter could get online for school. But overall this place met our needs just didn’t have the Tico hospitality we had been given elsewhere. Ps if you want a fancy and fabulous dinner out… try Rukas. Beautiful view and beautifully plated, delicious food.

Great pool, helpful staff, good breakfast every morning. Room was spacious and private, great for our family of 5. Room was cleaned every day. Close to beach and amenities.
Surrounding area was very busy, easy walking distance to stores and restaurants but busy streets, sketchy on foot with small children. The beach access to the left as you leave the hotel was beautiful and much less busy.

Good location, only a few minute walk from the beach. We loved that breakfast was included. And we were able to book a day trip to Isla Tortuga with the hotel which was great.
We would have appreciated a little more attention to detail when it comes to hosting and taking care of the property. We could feel that we were there during low season.

The room was nice, comfortable, and all the environment. Breakfast was ok but could also improved a bit.
Small things/ objects need to be added in the rooms to make it even more comfortable like a night table for example. Also the floor of the room is not the most appropriated one when you have your feet wet because as the floor is very slippery surface
