Pros:

Staff are very friendly and accomodating. Very nice atmosphere. If you are used to 4 or 5 star accomodationd you may be dissapointed. The accomodations look nicer on photos than in real life. Having said this if you are ok with a 3star level than this is a nice place. We were upgraded from our room which was described as a bungalow (single room of a restaurant) to a tent so we ended up glamping. Over all a fun different experience just not at 4/5 star level. Loved the staff!!!

AVOID THIS HOTEL AND RESTAURANT AT ALL COSTS
Pros:

We stayed in the honeymoon suite and booked a beach picnic for our special proposal. Lamia the owner was onsite and APPEARED TO BE very helpful.

The hotel was nice until the first of many power outages occurred. On our first day there the power went out 6 times. Additionally, the shower was not working and also had a broken lighting fixture. When the shower did work it was basically a trickle. The owner let me use another room to shower but once again the water pressure was only a trickle.

Now the bad: The picnic was nice and had some food and nice arrangements. The owner personally drove down to the beach in a separate car and told us exactly where to park. After our picnic we realized our rental had a ticket and the plates were missing (standard practice in CR). Lamia promised she would take care of the charge in-person and flipped as soon as she heard that charge the from Dollar Rental was $400. She advised us to commit credit card fraud and charge back the rental car agency. Now a week later after she has been avoiding calls or texts she has confirmed that she will not be paying anything. So basically the $295 picnic ended up being $695.

I advise you to avoid any of her businesses at any cost.
