We only stayed the night after our flight and left following breakfast the next day, but it was perfectly pleasant. The guys behind the bar were helpful with directions to our next destination.

Beautiful property in a gorgeous setting. However, it sits by a very loud road and the traffic noise is terrible. Other than that, the property is wonderful.

For our last night in Costa Rica this did the trick. We would not stay anymore than one night a there is NO TV, It's an older property and it showed, there was hot water when I took a shower, but when my husband went in, it was cold. It's noisy being next to the main the road. There is nothing really to do around it and no ice available. There were HUGE spiders everywhere outside. However, the people were very nice and I felt very safe with the guard there all the time. We didn't really eat dinner or breakfast as we wanted something different, but the menu was fair and so was the price for the room. My husband did not mind saving $100 for the night by Not going to a big name hotel and staying there.

Beautiful Accommodations
This place is amazing! Spacious rooms. Beautiful artwork. Ample towels accompanied by lots of towel hooks. Two balconies. Large pool. Pool tables. Chess boards strategically placed around various sitting rooms. Hot shower. Popcorn at dinner. Free breakfast. My only complaint was the server rushing us out the door last night a full 30 minutes before close.

The environment is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The staff are extremely proficient and friendly. Thre are only a couple of things that need improving invluding adding a diverse menu with great portions. For example, being a tropical country the fruit salad would be one of the best dishes but it left alot to be desired. The second thing to improve would be the bathrooms..they flood while one is taking a shower and the entire space gets wet. Apart from this I would stay here again. Its a very beautifully designed, decorated and comfortable villa.
