Room was far away from the resort and in very poor condition. I would give the resort 3-4 stars but the room 1-2 stars. All the activities cost extra money. Food was overpriced.

Rooms have place for improvement, and some rooms are better than the orhers. We were a big group and booked 5 similar rooms, one out of five had a mold-like odor. Staff were beyond nice, friendly,and helpful. amenities were great. And on top of everything else, the nature was so rich! Foods were good too. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Bad location, urban condo style, poor amenities and surroundings. Room (Bella Leona apartments) located in a condo, far from the reception and amenities, but more important the condo looks and feels like a high-density suburb in any city of south san jose, nothing like a resort or even a beach destination. Sensation is that we were in a neighborhood of san jose and not a nice one. The entrance was gated with a key that you have to get out of the car each time to go in and out, which could imply the area is not safe enough. Not a beach experience, not a comfortable one.
