Beautiful beach!
We got married on the peaceful quiet beautiful beach here. It was in October and there was one other family staying at the property so it was like we’d rented out the whole place. It is very basic and not easy to get to, but once you arrive, they’ve got a nice pool and restaurant to enjoy yourself and your family.

Really worth the price
We really liked our night at the hotel. We were staying during rain season and the roof of our room started to leak. I contacted the front desk via WhatsApp and they immediately moved us to another room with no issue. It is worth the price, and it was really clean. The restaurant was really good, much more than what we were expecting. Local traditional food, not extraordinary but very tasty and pleasant. It was perfect for a short stay!

It was a nice family spot and food was great. Beach needed more care to entice people.
CALEEN, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed a night here before shifting to Dreams Las Mareyas, the site of the wedding event we attended. We hoped to have a nice comfortable night for significantly less cost and we were pleasantly surprised. Our room was neat and clean, the bed was comfortable with decent pillows and the air condition blew nice and cold. Dinner at the restaurant was good. I had an excellent steak. Beach was quiet and pleasant. We also enjoyed seeing the wild cows that roamed on the premises.

Beutiful place!
Absolutly tranquil place, the workers are very friendly, and its a hidden gem thats near the border of nicaragua. Bluest waters ive ever seen.
Saul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Food was incredible! Amazing! So delicious and fresh!! Staff was beyond incredible with great service. Only downfall was we didn’t have hot water — they tried to fix it, we thought it was working but when we took a shower it was cold. We were only there for 2 nights and didn’t realize the fix they did still didn’t work until almost bedtime the night before we left, no big deal. We would totally go back!!

The staff was super nice and the room was very clean. We were the only people staying at the resort for the first two nights. There was a leak in our roof as well, but the price was amazing.. breakfast included.

It was a awesome time spent in this Hotel, located in a beautiful area. Property needs a few improvements as a new painting, the rest was fine.
Jorge, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The area of Guanacaste is beautifully wild and this is a comfortable place to enjoy it. It is fun to watch the kite surfers on the beach and the whole place feels clean, safe and family friendly. I wish the room had a couch or table and a microwave or stove. I really loved how we were in the Costa Rica wilderness yet enjoying a nice place to stay.

Karin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice views, large rooms, good breakfast. No wifi in rooms, safes in rooms donnt work, balcony door lock didnt work. Very windy area.

10/10 Exceptional

Probably one of the nicest, if not THE nicest in the area. But be aware that it can be very windy day after day, which is why this area is a Mecca for kiteboarders (I am, wife is not). Otherwise, super great complimentary full breakfast , and lunch and dinners were very affordable. One suggestion: have coffee available for guests before 7 am. Seems to be common in CR, but waiting that hour between sunrise and your first cup of java is rough!
George, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I did like the quiet at night and the food at the restaurant, good balance between price and quality. Rooms were clean and comfortable (we stayed at a family one). The hotel could improve the "gaming" area next to to the restaurant because it was messy and full with rooms furniture. From November unitl April is a windy place and the sea is cold so, be careful on how to arrange your travel plans.
