Staff And entertainment was excellent. No included wifi and beach equipment sucked
This was my first time staying at a resort so I have little to compare too. but it was very nice
I liked everything. May be management can do something with evening activities, do more entertaining.
Beautiful property! Well kept! Difficult to find. No noticeable sign to get you to the property. Never had hot water in the shower i our entire stay
Very clean and beautiful property. staff is very pleasant and helpful. All of them understood english for those like me who dont speak spanish. Rooms are clean and beautiful. tons of stuff to do to keep your day jam packed of fun. Food is buffet style so dont be afraid of getting plate number 2 or 3 even 4. The wifi is trash and you have to pay for it but you're on vacation social media can wait. The drinks are grossly watered down and i was disappointed. They tasted like i was drinking juice stick to the can beers and wines to get your tipsy on or byob. Overall its a must visit. Also if you fly into san jose airport its a 3 and a half hour drive to the resort or a $180 taxi ride. The Liberia airport is closer. Just food for thought
The staff was very friendly and the food at all of the restaurants was very good. The grounds could have used some up keep as well as the hotel room floors. Waiting in line to make restaurant reservations every day was a pain in the butt.
Adult only need more liquor brand the pool close too early
Very good staff premium bar is excellent. Good in specialty restraints very good
Very nice, cozy resort. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The pool area, grounds and views amazing. Will definitely go back.
Hotel was very nice and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. All the steps was a good way to get your cardio in for the day. Wildlife on the property was nice to see. The only complaint would be the air conditioner in the room was extremely noisy. The Ala Carte restaurants added some variety to the menu.
Nice place to stay. There is a beach, just don't go at high tide. Food was great especially the Italian a la carte. Breakfast got a little old though, would have liked some bacon on buffet. All the workers were nice and eager to help. Don't get suckered into a time share visit with a guy named Junior on the beach. He will tell you it isn't a time share, it is!!! Spa was amazing. Would definitely return!
Beautiful resort , nice beach and friendly staff . Lots to do just around the resort.
Fridge wasn’t working, the air wasn’t working. The power kept cutting off. And then the shower was plugged up. We ended up leaving for another hotel and now I’m fighting for a refund from orbitz
Beautiful place and beach . To many steps and long walk to the beach.
Was a nice resort. Special Resturants were very good. Buffets were ok. Most of the staff really nice and helpful. Swim up bar staff were grumpy
THIS WAS A GIRLS TRIP AND WE PUT UP WITH TERRIBLE SERVICE AND FOOD. THE FOOD WAS FAIR AT BEST. NOT A LOT OF CHOICES. RESERVATIONS FOR DINNER HAD TO BE MADE EACH DAY STARTING AT 8AM, BUT NO ONE WOULD BE AT THE DESK FOR RESERVATIONS. ROOM SERVICE WAS BEYOND SLOW. I REQUESTED WATER AND ICE (NO ICE MACHINE IN OUR BUILDING) AT 3PM IT ARRIVED AT 5PM. THE "FREE" WIFI WAS A BITTER DISAPPOINTMENT. WE HAD TO SIGN IN OVER AND OVER AGAIN WHILE IN THE ROOM!!! ACTIVITIES WERE SCHEDULED, BUT STAFF WAS NOT AVAILABLE TO CONDUCT CLASSES. ROOMS WERE OLD, NEEDS UPDATING, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE UPDATING WAS ATTEMPTED. BATHROOM IS SMALL AND NO VENTILATION ACCEPT FOR A WINDOW THAT IS IN THE SHOWER. SPEAKING OF THE SHOWER, IT WAS A LITTLE MORE THAN A TRICKLE. HOWEVER, THE WATER SUDDENLY TURNING TO SCALDING WAS AN EYE OPENER!!! THERE WASN'T ENOUGH CLEAN TOWELS HAD TO WAIT FOR LAUNDRY. NO ASSISTANCE ON THE BEACH WITH CHAIRS OR DRINKS. NO DRINKS UNLESS YOU BRING YOUR OWN TO THE BEACH. OH AND THE BEACH WASN'T PRIVATE. ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY INCLUDING THE PIT BULL DOGS WERE ON THE BEACH *THE BEST THING ON THEIR PUBLIC BEACH WAS THE MASSAGE BY SOME LOCALS
The resort is too spread out and inconvenient. Not a place for fun and excitement. Pretty much closes down at 8 p.m.. Food choices were very limited. Very costly to get around to other places.
Hotel is close to beach, food at Italian restaurant and buffet was amazing, staff was helpful and friendly, rooms and view were beautiful. Will definitely recommend and visit again!
