"Stayed in the Estrella room, it was beyond beautiful. Long scenic walk to the room, kitchenette, and filtered water in the full sized fridge. Staff was very kind and helpful, since the hotel was 6 hours from SJO we had to leave at 4 am and to our surprise there was a staff member there to assist with checkout. There are no key drop-boxes, so I was worried about how we were going to return it. Overall an amazing stay."

"Always my go to place to stay if it’s available. Wonderful staff, food and location! I love that I can never leave the resort but still have an amazing time after it rained the entire time my previous visit. And even better to come back to after a day out playing in the area and relaxing on the beach for sunset while enjoying one of their many cocktails. It is also reassuring to see the same people working there year after year."

I took advantage of the spa and had an incredible massage. Gorgeous views of the ocean right out your window and the multiple pools to cool off in with the heat. Swimming beaches were a short drive away if you wanted to swim in the ocean."

"We had an amazing 5 night stay at Sea Wing. It was in a perfect location, beachfront, on the main street but far enough away no noise other than the waves crashing nearby.The property is well maintained and we felt very secure, night and day. The house staff were friendly and available for assistance, and helped to coordinate groceries, excursionw, and a private chef for breakfast/lunch which was also fantastic and a great way to really unwind and relax while enjoying the house.We would absolutely stay again, and it has definitely spoiled our family and expectations for any future VRBO stay!"
