Prachtig resort dichtbij de luchthaven met ruime kamers en heerlijke bedden
Pros:

Prachtig resort dichtbij de luchthaven, met ruime kamers, heerlijke bedden en een schitterende groene omgeving vol dieren; een fijne plek om te ontspannen en tot rust te komen.

Cons:

helaas hadden we te weinig tijd om optimaal te genieten van de zwembaden en het hele resort met de prachtige natuur en watervallen te verkennen.

Family-Friendly Authentic and Refined Stay
Pros:

My family with kids age 8 and 10 had such an awesome time at this hotel. There are miles of walking trails right on property as well as five waterfalls! In addition there are three pools and two Jacuzzis. Gardens are beautiful - we even say a Capybara - a real treat for my daughter. We had a generous breakfast included in our stay and we chose to eat dinner at the hotel each night as the food was good and reasonably priced. Lots of vegetarian options as well. The staff is so kind. We participated in a night walk with Carlos and a farm tour with Luis and Guillermo. Carla at the front desk was a real joy to deal with. We would come back again to this hotel. It is 15 minutes from the airport with easy parking. A great day to start or end a trip in Costa Rica as you are close to SJO without having to book a commercial hotel. This place is an artist’s delight!
