"It was a nice quiet and clean area. I didn’t like that I could hear all the noise from the other people also staying at the resort but other than the staff was really sweet and I enjoyed my stay."
"Small little hotel where everyone works hard to make things right
Great food, great staff, nice beach to walk on and enjoy sunsets.
Conveniently located near Jaco beach, but away from all the hustle and bustle. 100% Thumbs up! "
"Great stay here. All the staff and the owner himself are lovely. We absolutely loved the area and would definately return. The room was basic but had everything we needed. Nice comfy beds and decent pillows. WiFi was good, pool area was lovely and clean and had outdoor kitchen facilities next to it. Was fab. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely stay and we wish we’d stayed longer. "
"Excellent condo right on the beach. Best view from the room's balcony in all of Playa Hermosa. Staff are super friendly and helpful, especial thanks to Javier, Cecilia, and Susanna!"
"I reserved and they said that expedia booked the room but they didnt have availability. Terrible customer servuce. They took the payment without honoring the booking. We could not stay there"
"I'm sorry to say but be careful booking here. They did not honor our Expedia reservation and turned us away. We Just flew in and drove from San Jose then had to find another place. Everyone was booked and drove 30 min out of town to find another place. Then Expedia tried to contact them to obtain the refund and they are not communicating with Expedia and now Expedia is not refunding me. "
"Hotel is near the beach, we went walking to many areas of the beach, pool is very well, clean and nice, buildings is very comfortable, the staff incredible friendly.
Food in the restaurant is really good."
