A place with lot of potential, if management would pay more attention to details.
Pros:

It has a lot of potential and is close to one of the best beaches - Flamenco. You can hear and see monkeys and birds and stuff is quite nice. Beds were comfortable.

Cons:

Unfortunately they dont pay attention to details. Pool and area around was always full of leaves and seemed dirty, same as for our private little backyard. Room
photos are much better as the real rooms. Couldnt sleep well at night since palm leaves would make
A LOT of noise on the metal roof. Breakfast was too simple - I assume there is much more fruits in Costa Rica than watermelon? Also there is such good coffee in Costa Rica, but the one they serve for breakfast was horrible. Had to order a capuchino which would cost 8USD extra.

Schöne, aber teure Unterkunft
Pros:

- schönes Zimmer mit Bad im Freien
- Pool ubd gemütliche Sofas draußen
- Parkplätze verfügbar

Cons:

- das Frühstück ist sehr simpel
- das Personal steht meist gelangweilt rum und schaut aufs Handy, während man am Frühstück wartet bedient zu werden, oder der Pool schmutzig ist
- wenn am frühen Abend nur noch zwei draußen saßen, wurde teilweise ab 20:30 die Musik ausgemacht oder die Lichter sehr früh ausgeschalten, weil es sich scheinbar nicht mehr „gelohnt hat“.
- alles in Allem daher viel zu teuer

Pros:

Staff were really friendly and helpful. The pool was lovely.

Cons:

Due to the layout of the hotel, it was quite noisy at night and hard to get a good night's sleep. Food was very expensive. It was also not possible to flush toilet paper (but this is standard across the region, so not the hotel's fault).

Tolle Anlage, die an Punkten heruntergekommen wirkt und ihr Potenzial besser ausschöpfen könnte.
Pros:

- sehr schöne Anlage mit viel grün und Wildlife
- großer und tiefer Pool
- auf Anfragen (z. B. defekte Klimaanlage) wurde sofort reagiert

Cons:

Wir würden gern eine bessere Bewertung geben, aber grundlegend gab es zu viele Kleinigkeiten unserer „Suite“ und der Anlage, die enttäuscht haben:
- aus unserer Klimaanlage tropfte Wasser, die Badtür ließ sich nicht schließen, das Waschbecken und die Dusche erinnern an ein Baustelle. Die Stühle am Pool sind kaputt.
- das Frühstück: nichts besonderes, einfachstes Touri-Essen, selbst das Tipico war fad
- Anfragen in der Buchung wurden bestätigt, mussten aber trotzdem nochmal vor Ort erfragt werden

Pros:

Zarezerwowaliśmy willę. Czuliśmy się tam jak w domu. Przepiękna i przestronna, bardzo komfortowa. Samo miejsce bardzo urokliwe i przyjemne. Właściciele niezwykle sympatyczni, dbający o to miejsce .
Basen, lobby i restauracja urządzone z gustem, chce się tu być.
Bardzo sympatyczny młody pan kelner podający śniadania, pracujący na barze.

Cons:

Szkoda, że wybór śniadań był niewielki : tylko 4 śniadania do wyboru.
W willi spodziewaliśmy się, że będzie dostępne żelazko, aby wyprasować nasze letnie sukienki i lniane koszule. Brak. Niestety nie było też możliwości jego wypożyczenia.

Hôtel médiocre sans possibilité de se laver dans la douche
Cons:

Le lit de nos enfants était dur comme du béton, bancal avec une barre métallique au milieu du lit. Ils n’ont pas pu dormir.
Impossible de se laver dans la douche car il y avait juste un petit filet d’eau. Si vous avez les cheveux longs vous les laverez ailleurs mais certainement pas dans cet hôtel.
Le petit déjeuner était médiocre.
La piscine était sale et
Si trouble qu’on n’en voyait pas le fond
Nous avons donc été arnaqués vu le tarif!!

Pros:

Good location and breakfast options were good as well.

Cons:

We had a swarm of bees in our bathroom an so couldn’t use the bathroom that night and the next day before we left. That was a bit dangerous, especially if you are allergic to bees. I was stung a couple times.

Nice looking hotel
Pros:

The room was great, great size, great bed, fantastic music from bar!.. private area by room, good bathroom but open air, fridge

Cons:

Breakfast, you should be able to choose what egg, serve atleast 2 toast with butter and jam, but all of costa rica doesn't get European breakfast. Organisation needs some work, training staff to smile and atleast to say welcome when you are the only person coming to the bar, cleaning poolarea every day instead of only when a big table arrives for superbowl... but still enjoyed our stay because of the great room and the great decor all over the accommodation that is small ride to the beach

Relaxing and comfortable. The hosts at the hotel were great.
Pros:

Quiet, quick walk to the beach.

Cons:

If you are easily scared by bugs you might want to book somewhere else.
