The “resort” was okay. The tour thru the butterfly and frog sanctuary was nice. The food options were not the greatest; pricey and average. The hotel is clean, however, the pool, restrooms and certain areas are run down. There are certain things that could be prioritized, like a toilet seat! We made the best of it but will probably not return.

Wonderful employees-facility in need of repairs
This hotel needs a full remodel. There were several employees that were so kind. Carlos was an evening gold cart tour guide to us for birds/plant identification and he was wonderful. He also was very kind to offer us other tips of activities in the area. The room key did not work and in fact we found one of our rooms did not always even lock. We requested maintenance but we left before they showed. The doors to the balconies are difficult to open and outside metal is covered in rust. Hallway walls and carpeting need upkeep. I would not return even though we did run into several wonderful employees.

In the Rainforest
The setting is phenomenal, but the jungle conditions have clearly taken a toll on the overall condition of the property. The rooms need dehumidifiers, as the windows were foggy and it got so humid in the room that it was literally raining in the room. Weird! Absolutely great pools and user friendly hours. As weird as it was, I’d definitely stay here again.

Love the location, but it limits the food options. There's no gift shop or drink machine so if you want a coke it's $2.95 and you have to wait for it.

We left a day early it was that bad. No hot water in the room. No washclothes or hand towels in the room. The kids pool looked like it had a strange bubbly film covering it. The food was the only thing that was pretty decent. You can tell this hotel is not the hotel it once was when it was run by Radisson 10 years ago (based on the pictures). It looks run down now.

I really loved the fact that this resort was situated in a rainforest and away from the city. Beautiful golf courses and nature everywhere. The staff is really very very friendly and will give you everything you need to make your stay comfortable. The place is very safe and you have tours within the resort. It is a slighly older propert around 50 years olds but facilities are great. Kudos to the management and staff for a great experience. Highly recommend this place. Do play golf while you are here can't get any better.
