We had a wonderful stay! Jordan at the front desk was the absolute best—helpful, friendly, and full of great recommendations that made our trip even better. The grounds were beautiful, almost like staying in a jungle, and the pool was gorgeous. Just wish the bar had been opened. The location was very convenient and just a short drive to town. We also felt very safe, especially with the beautiful guard dog on the property. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Highly recommend!

It is an exclusive gated resort nestled in the stunning landscape of Jacó. The rooms are surrounded by lush greenery, creating a serene and relaxing atmosphere. The staff is exceptionally warm and welcoming, always ready to assist with a smile. The owner was truly outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and making our stay unforgettable.

We are frequent guests at this hotel, and it never fails to impress. Nestled in lush natural surroundings, it’s beautifully framed by tropical fruit trees and vibrant vegetation. The hotel’s pet-friendly policy is a big plus for us. The swimming pool is refreshingly cool, ideal for relaxing. One of the highlights is the spacious and comfortable room, which always makes us feel at home. The sounds of nature at dusk and dawn are simply spectacular, adding to the peaceful, immersive experience we keep coming back for.

Me and my friends loved our stay at this hotel. It was the best hotel we stayed at in Jaco. If you love being surrounded by nature check this one out. The pool is beautiful and the staff is very friendly, helpful & welcoming. The rooms are also spacious and they have a gated parking lot, so less worries about leaving your car parked at night.

Relaxing Stay in a Beautiful Environment

The hotel is in a beautiful setting and our suite was spacious and private. The restaurant is quiet, delicious and fairly priced. The spa and yoga area is only open on appointment, and that was a bit of a disappointment. The pool is really nice. Loaner bikes were a nice touch.

The grounds of the property are beautiful. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The pool is a good size, great jacuzzi and wild monkeys visit to eat the fruit from the trees around the pool. The rooms are clean and big - the lighting in our room wasn’t the best - but everything else was amazing. We had breakfast included, and it was very tasty. We would definitely stay here again. It’s a great deal, close to everything but feels very secluded.

I have been to Jaco in the past and typically hate it, but when staying here I enjoyed my stay in Jaco. It is located about a five minute drive from downtown Jaco, but its worth the drive because this place is set up in a heavily wooded and landscaped area. The pool was awesome, with color changing lighting and a mini waterfall. Hearing both the morning and evening sounds here was priceless. I would definitely stay here again.

The property was really nice, if you like being in the rainforest. Lots of wildlife, there were many bats that lived outside our door. We saw monkeys, cats, birds, etc. on the property. I could do without all the spiders and bugs, but I understand that the appeal of the place is to be immersed in the tropics. Just be mindful of that. But overall stay was pleasant and the staff was amazing, very friendly and accommodating.

Huge rooms ... Breakfast could be better.

The rooms are big, the bathrooms are bigger. The swimming pool is fantastic and there are plenty of trees on the property. The in-room coffee is good. Two issues I had (1) the free breakfast has very limited options. (2) we had booked two rooms and both had showers that leaked water in the bathroom. FYI there are lots of cats and a dog on the property so if you don't like cats this place is not for you.
