Nahe zum Flughafen und trotzdem in der Natur
Pros:

Sehr schöne Anlage mit kleinem Trail. Nahe gelegen zum Flughafen. Gratis Parken. Gutes Frühstück und auch viel vegetarisches Angebot. Sehr nettes Personal.

Cons:

Das Bett ist eher unbequem (durchgelegen Matratze) und die Lautstärke zur Straße unangenehm (auch nachts sehr laut)

Einfach wundervoll
Pros:

Hier wird immer sofort nach jeder Kleinigkeit geschaut, alles wird repariert oder ersetzt und sauber gehalten. Das Restaurant hat eine kleine aber feine Auswahl und es gibt sehr leckere Cocktails, Weine und exotische Säfte. Das Personal ist super lieb und aufmerksam, wie eine Familie. Wir kommen seit ein paar Jahren immer wieder gerne.

Cons:

Hier gibt es nichts zu meckern.

Perfect place to start your Costa Rican adventure!
Pros:

The room and the view were great, friendly staff, great breakfast (also for take away), close to the airport, they even have small rainforest trails on the grounds to get a glimpse of what to expect on your travels throughout the country.

Great stay, nice room and lovely hotel areal.
Pros:

Our first and last stop on our trip through Costa Rica. Would book again, everything was great.

Cons:

For 2 hours there were children occupying the pool, jumping, shouting and throwing a ball. I wish one of the staff would have said something - there were several other guests wanting to swim at the pool.

Gutes erstes Hotel nach Ankunft am Flughafen, wenn man mit sehr lauten Straßenlärm klar kommt.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war super. Der kleine Trail durch den Dschungel war auch toll. Das Personal war sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Der extreme Straßenlärm. Trotz Ohrstöpsel sehr laut. Fahrer zum Abholen am Flughafen über das Hotel organisiert - gab einige Komplikationen - angegebene Handy nr des Fahrers war aus. Es wurde ein anderer Fahrer geschickt, dem ein völlig falscher Name gegeben wurde. Am Ende haben wir uns durch Zufall gefunden. Hat die Anreise um einiges verlängert.
