The property was located on a mountain overlooking the ocean. The room was nice and the staff friendly. The food was terrible and quite pricey. There was at least one mistake with every order except for sushi dinning. For a $400.00 a night vista suite room the place was underwhelming and there were other properties which we would have been happier at.

I absolutely loved this stay. The amenities were fantastic, service was great, and the resort grounds were lovely. The only con was that the room was dated and the “jungle view” was just a chain link fence with jungle behind it.

Lovely pool areas
Stayed here for 2 comfortable nights. We had hoped to go to the Manuel Antonio National Park, but both of the days we were in the area were fully booked. Warmly greeted by Reception staff and taken to our room on a golf cart. Luckily our cases were taken to our room as we were on the top floor. Our balcony over looked the garden but beware, I only turned my back for a second and we had 2 monkeys just coming through the patio doors! The pools and surrounding areas were very clean but a regular visit from the barman to the adults only pool would have been appreciated. Happy hour was enjoyable with live music. We only ate at the restaurant during our stay. Most of the food was good, but I wouldn’t recommend the “tapas”. It was expensive and mine was tasteless. Much better experience in the main restaurant. Also enjoyed a very pleasant walk on the hotel trail. The hotel feels very American.
