Check in was delayed because they couldn’t find our Expedia reservation. Never really got a nice and hot shower, which was odd for a luxury hotel. Now the good… everything else was simply divine and we’d return in a heartbeat 💗 Thank you Namu and shout out to restaurant staff. Delightful!

We had an incredible stay! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and safe. (They go the extra mile by calling you by name anytime you interact with them.) The rooms were spotless, spacious, and so comfortable, with thoughtful touches like espresso machines and a personalized selection of toiletries. Amenities were top-notch, including the 24-hour golf cart service, a beautiful pool with excellent swim-up bar service, and a relaxing spa experience. The concierge, Gary, was fantastic—always quick to respond and genuinely helpful. La Luna was a highlight as well, with delicious food, a wonderful atmosphere, and attentive staff. The hotel also offers a shuttle to Manuel Antonio National Park, which is such a nice convenience—after driving ourselves this time, we’ll definitely take the van on our next visit. Truly a memorable experience—we can’t wait to come back!
