The cottages were well spaced apart with plants/shubbery providing added privacy. The showers provided full size hygiene products that were better quality than what we had brought which came in handy since you end up showering more than expected with all of the expeditions available. The only thing that would be an added bonus is if this property had a laundry facility for guests.

The best parts of this property are the grounds and the friendly staff. The food in the restaurant was mediocre. The wifi is terrible everywhere. We had no water for an hour on two of the three days we stayed there and I had to call the front desk multiple times to restore water. The beds were uncomfortable and they skimped on the pillows. The rooms are damp, so nothing fully dries. There was nowhere to sit in our room except on the beds or two uncomfortable dining chairs. The bathroom was huge, and we never understood why there was an entire room within the bathroom for, well, something, not sure what. The towels were skimpy and thin. All in all, this is a two-star "resort" charging four-star prices. There have to be better options in the area.

Canadian here. They lied and deceived. They had promised by email 3 beds. After signing they then said wifi was spotty. It didnt work at all. Having to walk in the dark to use the wifi in the lobby was not an option. We needed to book tickets and find directions with wifi. Got to room and no fridge for medicine or drinks. Big gaps in doors and a beetle dropped on me from the closet. It is an unsafe, walk back to lobby, was dark and poorly lit. People complainng toilets wouldnt flush. Pool area was overgrown. Dont believe the pictures. I requested a refund and they refused. I screenshotted the communication from the mananger telling the receptionist, no refund and insulting me. Thanks google translate. I will be requesting refund through Expedia and my credit card. All this was false advertising. They probably gave my old room to the guy who needed a working toilet. Regardless, we didnt stay. Read all the reviews. All we wanted was a clean, safe place to stay and enjoy our Costa Rica vacation. Don't let this one place discourage you, everyone else have been kind and service has been exceptional everywhere we go from the parks to the restaurants. We are not at Marenaz Oceanside near Manuel Antonio. Fabulous location and staff amazing. Beautiful beach location and great value. Safe and clean!
