8/10 Very good

The property is a good value for the money. They are obviously working on bringing up the maintenance, security, and general condition of the property, but their brand new management is dedicated and hospitable. If you are not too picky, you can have a good stay right next to 2 beautiful beaches (with a kitchen) at a great value!

2/10 Poor

This property is in really bad condition. Expedia shouldn’t have listed. Broken furniture, dirty and is in really bad conditions
Aliah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Rooms need a major update. Dripping faucets, knobs not functioning, noisy appliances, stained commode, tub stained and chipped glazing.

4/10 Fair

Check in was easy. Pool was nice. Staff was attentive with minimal resources. The room was substandard; beds, cooking utensils, lights and fans not working, dirty old fridge, air conditioning that could not keep up with the heat, no decking furniture ( we had to ask), bathroom had missing tiles, screen not secured and was disgusting We had payed for 5 nights and left after the second night even though it was not- refundable by the Expedia. To top it off our neighbors who were local paid 1/4 of the price which we were charge by Expedia. They actually laughed at us. We believe Expedia mislead us or they were mislead. We use Expedia regularly and did not anticipate they would lead us that way according to the posting. Stay away!!

Beautiful property. The people are amazing there and very hospitable. The rooms are large and traditional costarican rooms. The beach access is steep, but the beach is beautiful. Lovely fish to see while snorkeling. Would stay again.

Muy buena vista del mar desde las habitaciones, habitaciones espaciosas, buen desayuno. Lugar muy silencioso y tranquilo.

6/10 Good

This property needs major work. Staff very friendly but no internet, wifi in the rooms. Air conditioner was to small for the room. Patio door the latch was broken. At one time this was a beautiful property but over time has been neglected. Apparently the owner lives in Texas and has let his properties really be neglected.

I do not recommend this property.

Our room what extremely hot, 81 degrees. Two towels provided for a family of four. No exaggeration there were spiders and ants everywhere, coming out of electrical sockets and wall trim. Shower knobs broken. No soap, no wash clothes, no paper towels
Stacey, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not 4 stars and horrible place to stay

Extremely disappointing stay. Although this hotel claims to be 4 stars, the amenities were barely 2 stars. The cold water in the kitchen didn’t work at all, and there was no hot water in the bathroom faucet. The faucet itself was loose and wobbly, with broken plugs in the bathroom and kitchen . The shower was absolutely filthy—rusty and unpleasant to use. To top it all off, the bed had the cheapest mattress that made it impossible to get a good night’s sleep, squeaky bed. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone expecting a decent standard of accommodation.

Everyone we talked to was extremely friendly and helpful. There was supposed to be WiFi but it only worked in the lobby.

Bonita propiedad falta mantenimiento

El lugar es un hotel con unidades de condominio. Tiene vista al mar y es muy tranquilo y la propiedad como tal tiene mucho potencial y es bonita.. No obstante al parecer el lugar estuvo cerrado por un tiempo y están reabriendo. Requiere pintura en techos y cielo razo así como mayor atención a los detalles en la limpieza. Con el mantenimiento adecuado podría ser un excelente lugar. Como un lugar para dormir una noche pasa, pero no espere ver lujos, es básico y en nuestro caso no había jabón en la habitación.
Erick, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

My only complaint is that there is no internet in the rooms, there is no hot water, and the bathroom and kitchen are dirty. The people who work there are very friendly.
Vanesa, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

No volvería

No funciona el teléfono que brindan para información y nunca respondieron el mensaje de la plataforma. No entregan paños. No todas las habitaciones tienen parqueo por lo que hay que dejarlo afuera de la habitación peligrando ser golpeado. No hay rotulación de nada. En la piscina no se puede hacer ruido ya que queda al lado de la recepción e indican que están trabajando. Otros huéspedes nos comentaron que el inodoro no funcionaba y no les resolvieron En general la limpieza del baño estaba descuidada La ducha fatal y nunca salió agua caliente.
Gabriela, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The staff was helpful and friendly but didn’t have the key for us, we had to ask for towels and sheets which were stained and torn when we finally retrieved them ourselves in the rain. The shower was filthy and stained, I don’t think it could have appeared clean even if scrubbed. There was a gap in the wooden front door and the glass slider wouldn’t close completely, gapped between panels- also if tugged on, it would come away from the door frame- could have been broken easily to gain entry. There was giant ants crawling all over. The walls and window covers were faded and stained - the whole place seemed unclean and was uncomfortable to be in.

PAULA, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

So disappointed! We arrived after dark. Check in was quick but the room we were given was so disgusting. Lights falling out the ceiling, fridge didn't keep items cold, the toilet didn't flush, the ac filters were so dirty and clogged, the cobwebs in the windows, dirty drawers in the kitchen, just to name a few. We survived the night and asked for a new room. The new room was mariginally better but the moldy grounds left in the coffee pot pushed me over the edge. We booked 3 nights but left after 2. This place has the potential but the owners need to invest in repairs and maintenance.

4/10 Fair

This property is poorly maintained and managed. Missing light bulbs dirty shower , mismatched sheets on beds . Terrible mattress, poorly marked units . Very rural and not a good value for the money.

Its nice up on the hill but secluded, they had NO fresh water. NO AC , and the restaurant was closed so NO food. The nearest place was a $ 50 usd ride away . AND they double charged us.

Shampoo no jabón de manos es la peor hospedaje solo si estaba bien pintada paredes no funcionaba el aire el abanico sonaba y para terminar de hacerla se fue el agua desde el día anterior no tuvimos que venir sin bañarnos

Pésimo

El servicio al cliente, pésimo, no le dan importancia al cliente y sus necesidades Las puertas de vidrio sin seguridad se puedes abrir desde afuera. Llegamos y el lugar no tenía electricidad Duran demasiado en contestar los mensajes y para solucionar problemas del hotel. No se los recomiendo Se pueden encontrar mejores lugares

2/10 Poor

Great location, they appear to be trying to fix the place up. But the room was far from acceptable. It appears no one has cleaned the rooms in months. Upon arrival we were missing towels for the bathroom, and it was odd that they left the key just hanging in the lock for us to just "let ourselves in". I thought my 11 y.o. daughter was exaggerating when she told me it looked like a scary movie in the bathroom. She would not shower without my wife right outside the door. And to my dismay, she was right on. The soap scum and mold in the shower was unacceptable. Then to find out it was a cold shower because she didn't have any hot water. It didn't appear to have been swept in weeks with all of the bugs and dust under the bed. These are the big items of my nit picking. The small items, beach access? Kind of. It is shared with the hotel next door that you have to cross a trench to get to. Sliding glass door to the balcony didn't lock. This place has some very serious potential, and I did see people working to fix it up. Just would have been nice to know these things before we were there.

No nos dieron habitación ni reembolso de la resrva

PESIMO . Rerservamos y pagamos de antelación dos habitaciones. Cuando llegamos al hotel nos dijeron que sólo teníasn una y que se tenían que acomodar todos en ella. Luego nos dijeron que no tenían ninguna y que escribieramos a HOTELS.COM para el reembolso que no hemos recibido todavía. Tuvimos que buscar una habitación en otra aplicación y pagar doble.
