"Stayed in the Estrella room, it was beyond beautiful. Long scenic walk to the room, kitchenette, and filtered water in the full sized fridge. Staff was very kind and helpful, since the hotel was 6 hours from SJO we had to leave at 4 am and to our surprise there was a staff member there to assist with checkout. There are no key drop-boxes, so I was worried about how we were going to return it. Overall an amazing stay."

And even better to come back to after a day out playing in the area and relaxing on the beach for sunset while enjoying one of their many cocktails.

"Loved our stay here, beautiful view of the ocean and it was like a luxury condo in the middle of the jungle. A short ride into the town made it easy to enjoy the local vibe. My only suggestion would be to buy a new hot water (heater for coffee press) because the one there shuts off constantly (early) because the water has a lot of calcium in it and I'd like at least 2 cups (sipping with your morning wake up dip). All told this is a place you can really enjoy. "
