A beautiful hotel, with a stunning small and heated pool area which had the vibe/feel of a wellness.
Pros:

A beautiful hotel, with a stunning small and heated pool area which had the vibe/feel of a wellness. We loved the atmosphere the interior designer created!
The grounds and garden were perfectly maintained!
We really liked our spacious garden room and bathroom. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the view into the garden from the breakfast buffet.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing...

Dont get your expectations hight
Pros:

Heated pool. Friendly staff. Very clean and neat. Breakfast variety. Good location

Cons:

Not worth the money! I was expecting a better takeaway compared to the price I have paid. The rooms are very noisy at night, my room was facing the main street, every passing car sounded like it was walking through my room, window insulation is very poor, the first night was windy I could hear the ceiling (or some metals close by) hitting and the noise was annoying.The room was very small not really family friendly. During breakfast it took them a long time to refill the glass cups when none are left to use. and the fruit trays when emptied took too long to get it back. The first day I waited to get some but did not see it coming after I have waited some time then had to leave without eating it.. simply, I had a better experience in other costa rican hotels. I'm pissed I went on blind with this reservation.
Better also to dine in the restaurants across the street for better food portions and value of money

It was a pleasant stay and we would return for additional stays.
Pros:

The nature trail was like being in the rainforest. The staff were all very attentive and helpful. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Two days of our four day stay was without hot water. The shower was a walk in shower allowing the bathroom floor to also get wet and slippery.

Excellent hotel made even better by helpful and friendly staff.
Pros:

Its location is excellent with fabulous views of the sunset. A good range of facilities. Well designed and able to cope with all weathers (it was rainy, windy and sunny all at the same time!) Staff were incredibly helpful and arranged great excursions/guides for us before we arrived. Good breakfast. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others. We made use of the reasonably priced laundry service - very efficient.

Cons:

Minor point - the shampoo and conditioner were not great - suggest you take you own.

A beautiful hotel in a great location with great staff, if you have children best to eat at the restaurant across the ro
Pros:

The hotel is beautiful, we were blown away on arrival. The outside areas + fire pits and the pool are lovely as was the jacuzzi. The sunset views from the terrace were stunning and most mornings we were greeted by rainbows. It’s located directly across the road from a good supermarket, and a couple of decent restaurants.
The bar staff do a great Negroni and all the staff (as with almost everywhere in Costa Rica) were exceptionally helpful and friendly.

Cons:

The restaurant was a bit of a let down on the first night, we waited over 10 minutes before having to ask for menus then were served by three different members of staff, possibly because we ate early with our two children. The steaks both came medium rather than as requested although the food generally was good.
The jacuzzi could have been warmer on occasion.
