Absolutely stunning property! The infinity pool was amazing with its view of the Pacific Ocean. We are so thrilled to have found this location. The staff were friendly and attentive. We had a rattling AC in our room. We called up as we were heading out to dinner and by the time we got back it was all fixed. Every room has an ocean front balcony. This really made our trip great.

Beautiful view. Pool is awesome! Shuttle service every hr down the hill and back. Hotel guests get Access to the Beach club/bar was awesome! Langusta I think it's called. Very clean. Friendly staff. The restaurant was great and had live music for dinner. Can connect your prime or Netflix to watch before bed on the TV. The only thing I could say negative is for the price of the stay there should be a hotel shuttle service to and from the airport. If you don't book ahead you will pay 150 USD for a ride to the hotel..... Luckily I found another group going to tamarindo and we split the bill. So book ahead or ask people at baggage claim to split a ride with you. Great hotel

The hotel did not return our deposit. There is a separate room credit one can open if one wants to charge the expenses from restaurants or bar to the room, we did that and paid the balance at the checkout but they did not return the initial deposit. After contacting the front desk they apologized and said it is now refunded but unfortunately it is not the case. For anyone booking a room at this hotel, keep your receipts, you may need them in case of doing a chargeback with your bank.

This was our second stay at the hotel, and while the views remain absolutely amazing, there are some areas that require attention. The front desk staff, tour staff, and shuttle service were all very approachable, pleasant, and courteous, which made a positive impression throughout our stay. Unfortunately, cleanliness and service consistency were lacking. Room cleaning was sub-par and needs to be addressed, as greater attention to detail is clearly required. The pool area also requires maintenance—several tiles are broken or falling off, and we witnessed multiple children getting minor cuts, which is concerning. Breakfast was the most disappointing aspect of the stay. The quality, variety, and overall service need improvement. While the manager was pleasant and receptive, the hostess was not welcoming initially, and the breakfast service overall requires a thorough review. This hotel has great potential and an incredible location, but improved attention to cleanliness, maintenance, and breakfast service is essential to meet expectations.

There are a lot of hidden fees you need to be aware of with this hotel. Each transaction had a 13% credit card fee and then a 10% service fee and then VAT. Prices shown are not including all these extra fees so makes it a surprise on check-out.

Jairo the concierge was amazingly helpful and hooked us up with two of the best meals we’ve ever had! Bryan at the front desk and the rest of the front desk. Staff spoke perfect English. The structure itself is Glow Ing white and stunning. Everybody is so accommodating. The rooms are wonderful. The breakfast buffet is out of this world.

The only good thing about this hotel was the infinity pool. The food was limited and bland. I was shocked by the quality of food for a tourist spot. They had a Christmas buffet for $85 that was so limited and unimpressive. I just decided on room service. The breakfast had one breakfast meat and few options.The hotel needs upgrades. My bathroom shower was broken. The rooms are incredibly small with very few amenities. The staff was not friendly except for the cleaning lady. Check in was crowded un unorganized. This hotel was definitely not worth the price. I should have chose better!

Hotel was nice, clean. We didn’t stay at the pool there much but it was beautiful. The views from the rooms are gorgeous. The best benefit is the affiliation with Langosta Beach Club. We spent most our time there and it is very nice, just a couple mins walk away from the busier Tamarindo beach.
