Booked through Expedia and property was closed. Closes at 9pm and didn't answer their phone between 830-9pm. Charged for a room that we couldn't use. Zero communication from this place. They don't care and Expedia doesn't care.

Rooms were clean and modern, good shower and bathroom facilities, with a view for sunrise and wonderful terrace for sunset viewing over pacific. Staff were friendly courteous and helpful, breakfast was delicious and the pool overlooking valleys on both pacific and mountain sides was an incredible place to rest and relax! All for an excellent deal as well!

No shower, good view

Bed was comfortable, view was great, but stay was unpleasant overall. For the considerable price, no help with luggage. Remote location on dirt road. Mosquitos in room. Loud groaning air conditioner. Weak breakfast of fruit, bottled juice, unseasoned eggs and plain toast woth no butter or jam. They could not break a $100 bill. Worst, we got no shower but a trickle of cold water. No apology or compensation. Don't come here.

Terrific staff and a stunning location made for a relaxing stay at this 5 room hotel. Their fish tacos washed down with a Ginger Zinger are a must try!

Wonderful Hotel! Loved staying there!

This was one of the best hotels we've stayed while visiting Costa Rica. This hotel is privately owned by John & Janet and they were amazing hosts. The breakfast in the morning was incredible. The on-site resturant was amazing. Shout out to both Geiner and Yuly who made our stay great. We loved our room and watching the wildlife every morning right outside our balcony. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Three Night Stay

Beautiful spot with nice, comfortable rooms. There was a sloth hanging out the first day. Nice pool! AC! The owner John is a really good and cool guy, I liked his company. The only negative- I booked a three night stay and came to find out the second day, the kitchen was closed. The property is remote and not easy to access food. I was aggravated enough by it where I booked transportation the for next day and left early.
