This facility was very well built many years ago but is so so maintained. Everything is the bare minimum in terms of linens and bedding. The furniture in room and around the pool are cheap and flimsy. Staff is underwhelming. On the other hand, it has very nice beach frontage and a very large pool.

Little oasis

What a gorgeous hotel! The pool was so perfect and clean and the food service was delicious. The rooms were so comfy and cozy and air conditioned!! I do wish I had more than a sheet to cover up with (unless I missed it). It’s right on the beach with no crowds whatsoever and the hotel is surrounded by lush greenery. And just 10min from limon airport. Highly recommend

What a great surprise! Orbitz had to relocation us because the first hotel had a problem with our reservation. The hotel was right in the jungle with access to the beach a few feet away. Very clean and comfortable property without the craziness of Limon or Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica. Very Private and safe. Also, Julian and Javier (hotel staff) were very welcoming.
