Nice, clean quiet place
Very clean. Has its own beach connected to Playa Panama. Very quiet, older property with huge trees.Food is OK. Nice place to stay for solitude & for single women wishing to be unbothered. Off the beaten path, food is OK, menu is limited here, but can take an Uber to Playa Hermosa for great food.

Nice hotel right on the beach
This hotel feels a bit dated but it's clean, comfortable, and nicely situated on the water. You won't see the beach from your rooms but it's right on the other side of the pool. The beach is very easy to access and the hotel provides some lounge chairs and hammocks on a grassy area adjacent to the beach. The waterfront is rocky in one direction and sandy in the other direction. It is not private to the hotel but it wasn't at all crowded when we were there during peak season. Breakfast is included and quite good for a free breakfast (eggs, meat, pancakes, Costa Rica dishes, cereals...). Dinner on the other hand was not worth it. Everything had potential but everything was a miss. Overcooked fish, overcooked steak that was missing chimichurri, dry sauceless ravioli, poorly done soup. Out of 10 dinners we had while in Costa Rica this was the only one that I wished I had gone elsewhere for (elsewhere = Ginger in this case. Wonderful restaurant). But the hotel is nice if you can get a decent deal on rooms. Access to the beach and clean comfortable air-conditioned rooms are the highlights.
