BAD EXPERIENCE

Pros- *Beach front resort *friendly people *reasonable rates Cons- -no internet -no phone in room -no cable -MILDEW STAINED BEDDING and AWFUL SMELL -no power/water -hard to find on 4 mile dirt road When we arrived the "resort" was under construction and we were told that they were not expecting us. They were accomidating and prepared a room and dinner for us. We had to use a flashlight due to lack of lighting. The next day we were told by owner that the "resort" would be fully functional when we retuned that evening, not the case. Very friendly people but could not make up for disgusting conditions, lack of amenities and broken promises. bottom line- TRAVELER BEWARE!!!

Amazing & Beautiful Resort!!!

This place was absolutely beautiful! First of all, we booked a regular room, and when we got there they had upgraded us to the amazing 2 bedroom suite!! Our own huge bamboo bungalow, and then they brought us tropical frozen drinks by the pool. The beach is gorgeous and there is literally NO ONE on the beach...its like your own private dark sand beach. And on top of it being so beautiful, its completely eco-friendly! I don’t think you’ll find a better place to stay! Oh, and the staff is wonderful...the most cheerful people around!

Go for the beach, not for the amenities

The view and the access to the almost desolate beach is worth putting up with the shortcomings of the hotel.

Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks

The hotel is 40 minutes driving to Quepos. Bring your own rental car or prepare to spend a lot on hiring drivers.
