Parking was secure in a locked gate. We didn’t have a key to our gate as we were in overflow. We found the attendant to get out. Backing out was very tight but most places are in Costa Rica. Nice location. You can walk everywhere. The grounds are nice. Lots of iguanas and and birds. Loud fire works late and into the morning on Saturday. Sunday was a quieter sleep. Beds were comfortable.

I booked a hotel onhotel.com and when we got to the hotel to check in, there was no one there. The office was closed and there was no way to contact anybody to get our room. I’m also deeply aggravated with hotels.com. They did not help me out with refunding my money.

The people who work here are wonderful and helpful. Today as I was leaving, a workman there helped me by taking my walker down two treacherous steps and loading my junk in the rental car. The two steep steps leading into the unit need a ramp that can be put over the steps for walkers or wheelchairs. This is true for the steps to the pool, as well. Car parking is behind locked gates and beach access is too. Keys are given to clientele so there is no problem with safety or egress. This is a great site! The tropical birds are not shy in the morning and their songs can either gently wake you up or soothe you right back to sleep!

good property, BUT check the pricing details

Challenges for prospective visitors: There are probably good reasons for no-cancel and extra person charge policies in a "party town", but for a family with adult kids, having booked in a hurry based on the displayed daily rate, getting charged extra for a fourth person on a room that sleeps 6 felt like we'd been misled. Check-in: pre-arrival comms on timing had us a little concerned we wouldn't have someone to check us in. We did not get any response to our outreach to confirm that someone would be there to receive us later than the office was open, but the custodian did meet us when we arrived. The property is on an alley that has a surprising amount of foot and vehicle of traffic, some noise early to late, more on the weekends. There is a gate to the beach at the end of the alley that is unlocked during the day, another hotel and a busy restaurant between the property and the beach. One area between cabanas, on the alley, seemed be being used for work: tree wreckage, several garbage bags piled up. Workmanship of the updates is rough --one ceiling fan/light did not work (we were told on check in), loose outlet mountings-- safety worries. Just one working burner on stovetop, pots and pans were in rough shape -- hard to use. Good: rooms nicely re-designed. Overall, garden grounds, pool area beautiful, some, wildlife, secure compound, parking inside gates, locked after 6. The only place we found that had separate rooms for the beds, a 300 yrd walk to beach.

This was a nice and affordable place to stay in Jaco. There is a security gate that locks for entry into the parking area and hotel compound, so you can rest assured that your vehicle will not be tampered with. The location was convenient, about a half block from the main strip of the city and also the beach. Comfortable bed, nice appliances and shower. I would stay there agin.
