Room was very comfortable, good AC, very clean and updated. Terrace was great. All staff was very helpful, educated and nice, Housekeeping, Restaurant waiters and Front Desk. Beautiful gardens and lighting. Big and clean bathrooms.

The pool!!! It definitely needs an update! It is the same old pool as when the property was called Luz de Vida. Although there are nice chaise lounges, the pool looks old and water seems dirty and foggy. I did not use the pool because of this reason, and apparently nobody did.

Breakfast was really good, even when it wasn´t a Costa Rican typical breakfast. Restaurant is in front of the beach, with cool music and very nice environment (and the sunsets), beach with great waves for surfers and quite places for kids. Supermarket is relatively close, so you can buy anything you need.

Only weird thing was some uncomfortable moments with the receptionist (Tiffany I guess), we asked for an additional space before we arrive and never get a response, so our friend didn't go with us, but when we were doing the check out she doubt that we bring and additional person with us and she told us "I don't know if I believe you". And then we never did that kind of military check out process, she even check for the tv remote control batteries. Maybe because we are Costa Rican?? Don´t know, just uncomfortable and weird. All the other persons were really kind and helpfull.

Excellent location on the beach, walking distance to a lot of restaurants. We loved our little bungalow, it was clean, comfortable and private. The breakfast was delicious and right on the beach. Feet in the sand, coffee in hand!

The pool could use a little updating, but nothing to complain about. We used it everyday.

Amazing location right on the beach. Big restaurant, bar and sunchairs right on the beach. Food and drinks were great for decent prices. Loved the easy access between our bungalow and the beach area.

Sometimes the service wasn't great at the restaurant. Mainly a bit hard to get the waitresses attention and some of them had a bit of attitude. But overall not a big problem.

the bungalow was fantastic, so much space, it was clean and comfortable. great location, practically on the beach, with lots of restaurants a short walk from the hotel - the Asian sushi restaurant was our favourite! the staff were great, best to get the managers phone number and WhatsApp her if you want info on tours or transfers. the pool area was a lovely space to relax, although sun loungers could do with an update. the breakfast included was delicious, the beach bar was a fabulous place to watch the sun set too!

A lovely little villa with a outdoor kitchen, next to the beach. You can chill in the banana restaurant, use the beds and enjoy perfect atmosphere and super good food. Everybody is so friendly and nice. Especially Sophia, the receptionist is a super kind person, helping with everything what’s coming up. Thank you so much! I would always come back to that paradise place

Amazing location The bungalows are amazing, you feel in the jungle Great breakfast (a la carte, not buffet, which is a big extra point)

Not good value for money -- it is expensive for what you get

The privacy of the bungalows was very nice. The outside living of the bungalows was a great experience.

The pool could have been cleaner. A microwave would have been nice.
