The little cabin was air conditioned, had a fully stocked outside kitchen and the pool was lovely. Parking was under roof.

We were looking for a rental near family. The grounds are nice, pool clean, sweet patio area, nice people. The room was comfortable and the AC worked well. There was a nice outdoor kitchen/refrigerator. It’s simple but served our needs just fine. However there was no hot water which for us was ok because it was so hot.

This property is still recovering from Covid closures. The restaurant and bar are not open but it is less than a 5 minute drive to some of the best restaurants in Ojochal. However, The room was nice, the bed comfortable, and the pool was delightful. Overall, the property needs a little TLC but it was fine for the couple of days we were there.

Unlike many accommodations near the Pacific Ocean, Diquis De Sur has spacious grounds, which are beautifully landscaped, as well as fascinating flora and fauna. Both the owner and host were friendly and literally went the extra mile to meet our needs. We arrived with no car. So they drove us to local spots in the area.

The property still has a nice setting but the owner has let it degrade. Despite saying on your site that it offers a continental breakfast, it no longer does. The toilet seat was broken. The shower is slippery and dangerous with no hand rails. The cabin was not equipped with a stove or even a coffee maker and it took two days of asking to get one. The pool was dirty. The workers were on-existant.

Stay longer next time!
Beautiful pool and grounds, charmingly rustic cabin with wifi and kitchen, and personable, helpful staff. Luis served us drinks poolside and pointed out howler monkeys and various fruits and plants. Wilmer traded language tips and steered us to pre-Columbian stone spheres and museum. Included breakfast was lovely and decorated with flowers. We had a great meal just down the road at Exotica. Guests: Pack an extension cord and/or headlamp for better vision at night. Staff: Foreign guests are sure to expect prompt daily removal of used TP. We added a night to our stay after the first, and we will return to further explore the area.

Run down and not clean
No power, thus no a/c, fan, or internet upon arrival. Mold on the corner of the bed closest to the window. Owner not on-site, staff tried to be accommodating, but I would rather sleep in my car than spend the money to sleep here, enough said.

Ajado, no vale el dinero que cobran.
El lugar está ajado y destartalado, no vale el precio de U$100 que pagamos por la cabaña con cocina y aire acondicionado. El baño estaba limpio, la cocina y el dormitorio también. Pero todo muy antiguo, la llave del lavamanos se desarmaba, la ducha es eléctrica y la cama con un colchón muy blando y usado. En la cocina ninguna puerta ni cajón cerraban y en alguna de las ventanas faltaban vidrios. El refrigerador y el aire acondicionado funcionaban muy bien. La piscina también estaba bien. La recepcionista muy bien, muy amable y atenta, si no es por ella nuestra evaluación seria peor, fue muy amable y nos dejó hacer un check out mas tarde. El wifi funcionaba bien.

Situé au milieu de la nature parfait pour observation des animaux. Internet très efficace. Belle piscine et personnel accueillant. Points faibles:le frigo coulait et un des 3 lits était défoncé. Apportez votre shampooing. Mais, globalement, nous avons beaucoup aimé cet endroit!
