The room was very clean. The location was excellent. Our only gripe is that ground floor bedroom as soon as it got dark we had to close all the curtains because anybody walking by could look in. The living area had a big glass window next to the front door with no shade. Expensive restaurant. Could not ask for a better location

Let me start by saying that the service was wonderful. Hotel is exceptional. Would’ve loved to stay my entire time at Costa Rica at this cozy private beach hotel if I come back, definitely will be staying there again.

Stayed just one night before flying out of Liberia. Feels like a treehouse in the rainforest but directly beachfront on lovely Playa Hermosa, Guanacaste. Our beachfront room was clean, spacious and comfortable with refrigerator, coffee maker, indoor shower and private outdoor bath. Family of howler monkeys in the trees over the pool area were cool to see. Did not eat at the restaurant except for take out American style breakfast. Many restaurants a quick walk down the beach. Definitely would stay here again, especially for the beach and a quick ride to the airport.

Our room and view were beautiful. Property is nestled between residential homes. Beach is very nice, but not too clean. Lovely sunsets and food/drinks were fabulous. Every meal is served in an open air restaurant. Front desk was very helpful with everything. Hotel staff was always available to offer whatever you needed. Tip: Use Uber because hotel transportation is overpriced.

The property was beautiful. It's right on the beach with the rain forest all around you. Every morning, we enjoyed walks along the beach and picked up brunch or lunch from restaurants along the beach. Very peaceful and family friendly.

I like that the bedroom and bathroom is spacious, feels like you are close to nature, downside is the restaurant is too pricy and that it’s not convenient to go to other restaurants or eatery.

We had a wonderful stay at this property but the Ac went out on our last night and I don’t think we were compensated enough considering they could not move us and we had to pack with no Ac.

We enjoyed our stay and the staff are wonderful. The grounds are stunning and the proximity to the beach is wonderful. My only gripe is the food. It’s just not that great but it is quite costly and often took a long time to be prepared. We enjoyed ourselves regardless but while traveling with a family, the quality and cost of daily meals is an important factor to consider.

Beautiful place on the beach Very gorgeous As a VIP member not only did we not receive a welcoming drink but there was not even any complimentary water or tea Although it said there was complimentary things such as local chocolate there was nothing It actually looked like the room was used before us snd not resupplied and when I asked the front desk person she said this property doesn’t come with it I was not impressed with their service But the property was in a beautiful neighborhood
