Best stay ever in Costa Rica’

Amazing place! A very romantic place with a great family atmosphere. Much love has gone into this place to make it special! Perfectly manicured gardens with hand tools. Perfect in every way. Prettiest beach along the Southern Pacific coast and I’ve stayed at them all. The food was great and the hospitality was a 10plus. Loved the indoor/outdoor shower. Truly a dream and can’t wait to return.

My family stayed at Alma Del Pacífico for four nights during the “rainy season” after driving from our stay in La Fortuna. We didn’t mind the late day rain at all. We were able to get all the daily activities in before it started. The beach is as everyone has described, flat and walkable. We were able to swim with the waves, even our seven year old. Perfect for surfing, and our oldest took the opportunity with Brett’s Boards. There are more sand dollars than we have ever seen! Breakfast options were filling, and everyone was so nice! Our room faced the ocean with a small wading pool. Each villa has its own outdoor privacy wall with small garden area. Seriously perfect and exactly what we envisioned with no crowds. I would stay again in a heartbeat!

The most incredible perfect stay! Staff is amazing! Attention to all details! Grounds are immaculate! Rooms are huge and even have a water bottle in the fridge that you can refill because the water is filtered! The breakfast is amazing! I have nothing but praise for this place! I’ve travelled a lot!! But this is the best stay I’ve ever had! The location is a perfect jump spot to access all the activities in this area! Zip lining, Nauyaka waterfalls, Manuel Antonio national park, Quepos! And there are many restaurants less than one kilometer away at the plaza! I will definitely tell everyone about this place! And I’ll be back!
