8.2/10 Very Good! (99 reviews)

The property was nice for a large family to stay. It fit our entire family which was nice but it’s not shiny new. Road noise at night is obnoxious but we were near the front. The photos make it look perfect but it’s not. The area around is kinda sketchy but it is Jaco Beach. The hotel is walking distance to the beach and the main strip. The staff was the best part of the property. They were super friendly and the activities director was amazing. I would stay at this property again given the cost we paid vs other name brand hotels / properties. Overall I enjoyed our stay but it was because of the people that worked there.

Was a long drive from Fiesta Resort to see volcano, three and a half hour drive. It was cloudy and could only see base of the volcano.

driving up to the lookout point(s) is hard with volcano rock. you almost need an ATV. The pricing is a bit high at $15 pp.

5/5 - Excellent

Dont forget your bug spray and good shoes to hike

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

There are no viewpoints or anything to see unless you are able to walk 1.5 miles, which i think should be posted, as people unable to walk that far will be very disappointed (literally they will only see a parking lot). Also, the "lava fields" were kind of a disappointment as there wasn't much to see.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

I expected there to be longer hiking trails. You can really hike the loop and to the lookout point in a couple of hours max. I did the loop twice and I think it only took me a couple of hours. I really wanted a solid 6-8 hour hiking day.
