The property was veey nice, the exterior needed much needed updating as mold was all over the staircase clear wall. The room was nice, minus fact shower didnt get hot. But the hot tub watwr and sink water was scolding hot just as i like it. But yhe tub/jacuzzi didnt work there were never any bubbles. We called it in but in 6 days never got fixed. All in all i liked the hotel, but it wasnt a 9.6 rating. I woukd say 8.7

Our stay was amazing. We stayed for a week and we had an activity everyday and was very good for proximity- the most far away activity was 30 minutes for the hanging bridges. Overall an excellent stay for a family of 4 and 2 kids under 10. Would come back here again but there are others areas of Cista Rica we would explore.

Honesto pelo preço, mas NÃO recomendo

Tivemos um problema antes da chegada e entramos em contato com a hospedagem, que de nada ajudou. Tivemos que pegar a estrada a noite, uma estrada super complicada, mão unica, sem acostamento e uma subida cheia de curvas. A vista do hotel é linda, de frente para o vulcao Arenal. Mas o hotel parece ja ter tido dias melhores. Baratas pelo corredor, ficamos sem agua no hotel inteiro, tv mal funciona (nem pense em assistir nenhum streaming, a tv nao é smart e os canais todos tem chiado). O café da manhã é ok, mas em um sistema muito esquisito em que o atendente serve ós hóspedes num buffet. Enfim, custo beneficio ok, mas nada que valha a recomendação. Eu escolheria outro hotel.

I loved the view of Arenal and it was peaceful. The staff was not very friendly and everything seemed tip oriented and we didn't need help so shouldn't have to tip. I get that someone visiting that speaks English can be intimidating but we are more out of place and scared than anything so when staff is rude it can ruin a trip.
