Endroit idyllique mais chambre peu attrayante !
Pros:

Le cadre idyllique, la possibilité de manger sur place car la restauration et le service sont excellents! La mise à disposition de chaises de plage, un endroit idéal pour décompresser.

Cons:

La chambre bien que confortable était bruyante et avec vue sur le couloir de passage, donc la seule fenêtre devait être occultée par un store. Il est dommage d'avoir un si beau site et de se sentir calfeutré dans une chambre. Mise à disposition de café peu pratique dans la chambre. Beaucoup de chiens adorables dans l'hotel mais un peu bruyants au réveil.

Restaurant TOP Hotel FLOP
Pros:

Das Essen im Restaurant war TOP, sowohl geschmacklich als auch mengenmässig, sowohl beim Abendessen als auch beim Frühstück. Die Lage direkt am Meer ist aussergewöhnlich, man sitzt quasi am Strand.

Cons:

Das Hotel bietet unter der Zimmerkategorie Standardzimmer unterschiedliche Qualitäten an. Auf den Bildern werden normale Hotelzimmer präsentiert wie man sie gewöhnlich kennt. Es sind auch zwei Bilder des Zimmers dabei das wir bekommen hatten - es lag nur wenige Meter hinter der Rezeption direkt am Gang mit Blick auf die Rückseite einer Treppe. Wir haben das Zimmer dann das „Harry Potter Zimmer“ genannt, der ja auch unter der Treppe geschlafen hat.
Am Abend - wie oben erwähnt - war das Essen Top, der Service grauenhaft. Die Bedienung war unfreundlich und abwesend, hat das falsche Getränk gebracht und war sehr unmotiviert uns zu erläutern welche Beilagen wir zum Gericht auswählen können - sehr schade!
Obwohl wir Hausgäste waren sagte man uns im Restaurant hätte man keinen Platz mehr da alles reserviert sei, wir könnten uns aber an den Bartisch setzten, was wir auch taten. Nachdem wir mit dem Essen fertig waren gab es immer noch etliche Tische die reserviert waren wo aber keine Gäste sassen. Mit ein wenig mehr Erfahrung in der Gastronomie hätte man das besser regeln können. Am Abend bestand die komplette Mannschaft nur aus sehr jungen Personen, einige davon vermutlich Studenten.
Noch ein Hinweis zur Zufahrt von der Strasse, keinerlei Schilder. Man fährt einen sehr steinigen Weg und man denkt je länger man fährt dass msn falsch ist. Ein paar Hinweisschilder würden definitiv helfen.

Pros:

1. Overall Good/tasty Food dinner
2. Quieter beach
3. Cocktail coupons
4. Mom pop Hotel/supporting small business
5. Some of the servers were friendly

Cons:

HUGE NEGATIVE:The room was not just not great, or good. IT WAS BAD. I am talking about the ground floor apartment for 4 people. The room we got gave me an allergic reaction. It was the ground floor apartment for 4 people, facing the parking lot in the back. It was a really good parking lot full of beautiful trees but also all the trash was dumped at the end of this parking lot. There was something in the room besides having no ventilation, and being damp. I started sniffling which turned into a full-blown allergic reaction within a day of being in the room and I spent most of the day outside on the beach. I spent the whole night sneezing and blowing my nose. Had to go to the department store twice to buy two six packs of tissue papers and used up a roll and a half of toilet paper. DO NOT STAY IN THIS ROOM if you can avoid it. Not to mention the army of crabs big and small every night outside the door through which we needed to enter, which is I suppose acceptable and unavoidable given that we were right on the beach. But these crabs made their way inside also.

None of this would have been a problem if it was not for the room making me so unwell I wanted to leave Samara. Luckily, we were able to relocate to another hotel down the beach for the remainder of the days. Within 10 minutes of being at the room in other hotel, my nose stopped running and my sneezing stopped completely.

The only positives I can report on this place was their restaurant and location, quiet beach. 3 out of 5 times, our meals were delicious and the portions were big enough to share. Once when I ordered the taco, the beef was too salty and they completely messed up our to-go order for a sandwich. (More details provided below, along with bulleted list of pro and cons:

CONS
1. Cheap on dinner napkins. Only one napkin per person regardless of dish, burgers, mussels and pasta, soupy dish or even fish. Not sure why that's their policy.

Pros:

Het was een zalig verblijf! Alles was top! Fantastische locatie, rustig aan de zee. Propere verzorgde kamer die dagelijks werd gepoetst tijdens het ontbijt. Het eten was overheerlijk, een uitgebreide kaart. Het personeel stond altijd klaar om je te bedienen of te helpen met een grote glimlach. We hebben echt genoten van de gezellige sfeer en rust. Het echte "PURA VIDA" gevoel! Dankjewel allemaal!

Cons:

Niets viel tegen!
Een wasdraad in de zon om de natte spullen te kunnen drogen was nog handig geweest.
Het fruit bij het ontbijt was zeer lekker , maar smaakt nog beter als het kouder zou zijn. Dit zijn uiteraard details! Verder was alles prima!!!

Pros:

Belle emplacement sur le bord de la mer. Chambre propre et jolie. Très bon déjeuner, beaucoup de choix ! Belle ambiance du Costa Rica. Parfait pour un court séjour.

Cons:

Notre chambre était au rez de chaussée, c'était quand même assez bruyant le soir et le matin. Les chiens qui jappent, les employés, les gens à l'étage du haut. Demandez d'être au 2e étage.

Pros:

Apartment with own little terrace facing the ocean. Kitchenette with all necessary appliances. Staff was helpful, restaurant was really good. But the by far best aspect was the excellent breakfast (you could choose from 4 options) directly at the beach with stunning ocean view. Absolutely recommended.

Cons:

Slight odour in the apartment.
