Lovely property. Awesome, kind and attentive staff. Great food. We loved our room which had a balcony with a view of the grounds and the Sea just through the trees. Comfy beach chairs kept cleaned and fresh, a bar set up and food options right on the beach. The best massage I've had maybe ever in a little secluded set up in the trees with the sound of the waves in the background. It's a very small property which was perfect and intimate.
Stunning accommodations with the truly most fabulous staff. Your every wish is met and zero details left unturned. We had the ocean villa and it was super quiet, absolutely gorgeous and had every amenity. The food was delicious, we recommend dinner on the beach. Allejandro, Milena & Elvin went above & beyond to make our stay extra special & memerable. The beach is so relaxing and sloth viewing added to our enjoyment! A must visit hotel!!
The time to take orders and deliver food is too long. The staff, mainly female, should have a better communication with customers.
On a different area, the internal parking lot is too small.
The platinum status did not offer any advantage. We were not allowed to check in earlier and we were given only one extra hour at check out.
We LOVED this hotel! So perfectly set in it's surroundings! Right on the beach...so quiet and serene. The food was delicious and the staff was great! We had a wonderful couples massage with Macaws singing overhead.
The room was beautiful and the bed was comfortable.
I just wish there was a door to the bathroom.
The hotel is spectacular. I love the area and know it well, and this hotel is top-notch. The food is delicious, the staff is extremely helpful, pleasant, and friendly. The building is in impeccable condition, and the beach is delightful. I'm sure we will return!
Our stay at Ava exceeded all expectations. The staff was so friendly, and the food was delicious at breakfast. The view at the beach bar was spectacular. The room had natural handmade products and had a great view.
One of our best stays ever!!

The food is average and the water pressure was poor.
We had an amazing stay at Awa. Keep in mind it's in a jungle setting and right on the beach, so the ocean roar is constant as is the sounds of the jungle. The room was amazing with an outdoor shower, and a very private deck to hang out in. The service was exceptional, Dinnier, Ricardo and the rest of the staff took amazing care of us, going above and beyond on a regular basis.
This beachfront property is nestled in the jungle with regular wild animal sightings like monkeys and sloths! The staff anticipated our every need and the room decor and layout was superior! This was a magical trip
The whole experience at the aWa Hotel was amazing. The only point I would make, regarding the facility, would be the Parking at the Hotel. Management had explained that they were working on trying to improve that access and ease for the customer to park their vehicles.
This was our most favorite place to stay on our trip. Every little detail was thought of. The decor is gorgeous. The staff… love them all… the food delicious and top notch! The beds a dream, the ambiance delightful… just so cool!
We saw sloths and monkeys right outside of our room. We wished we would have stayed longer. We can’t wait to go back! We felt the quality of this place is similar to what we have received at One & Only resorts but at a fraction of the price.
This place is magical. It truly is! Beautiful, quiet, best beach i’ve seen in CR. The people there are just so welcoming. The parking is the only not great part, but don’t let that stop you!! There always seems to be someone there to help you park. Wish i could give aWa 6 stars!
