Little oasis

What a gorgeous hotel! The pool was so perfect and clean and the food service was delicious. The rooms were so comfy and cozy and air conditioned!! I do wish I had more than a sheet to cover up with (unless I missed it). It’s right on the beach with no crowds whatsoever and the hotel is surrounded by lush greenery. And just 10min from limon airport. Highly recommend

I felt safe staying here. The property could use some updating, the water pressure was very low at the sink and shower. The room was cozy, the bathroom had plenty of space. The staff was great, very friendly and accommodating.

What a great surprise! Orbitz had to relocation us because the first hotel had a problem with our reservation. The hotel was right in the jungle with access to the beach a few feet away. Very clean and comfortable property without the craziness of Limon or Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica. Very Private and safe. Also, Julian and Javier (hotel staff) were very welcoming.

Property is beautiful but ocean wasnt friendly to swim in. The pool is nice with a waterfall. Breakfast was basic and one morning weiners were offered as the only meat option. Next morning only eggs bun and juice. We left a day early due to all the rain and we stayed end of Jan beginning of feb (dry season).

Overall a great out of the way place right on the ocean, if you like crashing waves and long beaches even better. You need a car to take advantage of the rural location and the nice drive down the coast. The staff were good with some English. The down side to my room which was very clean and spacious for Costa Rica was, they have taken out the fridge, microwave and no coffee pot! The restaurant there does have good food but after breakfast you are paying.
