Room and grounds very clean. The access road to the hotel is very rough, my only complaint but obviously not their doing nor responsibly. ##### Gene Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John 25 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Yes, The room was clean. There was a refrigerator, small one and a nice working air conditioning unit with a fan overhead. I read other reviews about roosters crowing near this hotel. And I thought well roosters get up and start crawling about 5:00 6:00 a.m. and I'm going to be out of the room by that time so I don't care. Wrong! The roosters started crowing at 11:00 p.m. and didn't stop all day and night. I don't know what they can do about it because as you may or may not know, Costa Ricans are kind of loose about approaching people about touchy subjects. So be prepared is all I'm saying. Maybe bring some earmuffs? It's a value and it's a good value. The breakfast was excellent. The food was very, very good and you can choose from a menu which means you, you have yours. Your choice of a vegan or going typical tico. Also, the fruits and vegetables are really nice and added feature. ##### John Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rob 5 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We enjoyed the hotel, and that it’s family run. Attentive staff very friendly and helpful. A little sketchy getting in and out off the main road because of the low riding Toyota Yaris we rented and had to be careful driving up to the paved road to town. Beautiful grounds lots of flowers and landscapes room was pretty good size and breakfast was always tasty with great coffee. Nearby beach was quiet and sandy. Great location ##### Rob Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Amy 24 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lots of nature Wonderful place to stay. Just be aware there are neighborhood roosters that are very vocal all day and very early in the morning. Ear plugs are the way to stay at this place. Staff is very friendly and the room was very comfortable and large. A short walk down an alley to the beach. Enjoyed my stay and would go back. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A91E3CDA87BEA092435947DCA29722E4C17CEED51706116230335.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4DAD31389A0D049B68AC0AAEDC0FC64BB401150C1706116224653.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Amy Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Stefan 13 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very small room with air conditioning and a rusty fridge. We paid $50 US for two virgin pina coladas and 6 little bottles of soda! We will never return to this hotel since the road that leads from the hotel to the beach is very uncomfortable and dirty in a run down neighbourhood, locals burning garbage on the street and urinating there. Staff were friendly and great. You couldn't enjoy the beach since you had to walk by that neighbourhood. ##### Stefan Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gerard 31 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Very clean comfortable hotel.

Området intill är ganska " slummigt" och strandremsan direkt nedanför är inte den bästa. Men det är gångavstånd till vackra Playa Carrillo. Och längre bort på stranden = närmare samhället Samaea är stranden ok Samara ##### Stefan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [The Tranquilo Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-The-Tranquilo-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36517873.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Amavi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Hotel-Amavi.h103597450.Hotel-Information) > - [La Quinta Sarapiqui Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarapiqui-Hotels-La-Quinta-Sarapiqui-Lodge.h18261717.Hotel-Information) > - [Oxygen Jungle Villas & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Oxygen-Jungle-Villas.h6042557.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > - [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > - [Selva Verde Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarapiqui-Hotels-Selva-Verde-Lodge.h4139642.Hotel-Information) > - [Toad Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arenal-Hotels-Toad-Hall-Hotel.h11685037.Hotel-Information) > - [Natural Drake Bay Hotel Boutique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-Natural-Drake-Bay-Boutique-Hotel.h100431716.Hotel-Information) > - [Costa Paraiso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Costa-Paraiso.h38744058.Hotel-Information) > - [Kura Boutique Hotel Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Kura-Boutique-Hotel.h5637504.Hotel-Information) > - [Arenal Waterfall Lodge Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-GreenLagoon-Arenal-Waterfall-Villas.h1823811.Hotel-Information) > - [La Cusinga Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-La-Cusinga-Lodge.h9711849.Hotel-Information) > - [Lapa Rios Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Lapa-Rios-Lodge.h1447895.Hotel-Information) > - [Ecolirios Boutique Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Guacimo-Hotels-Ecolirios-Boutique-Hotel-And-Spa.h32864539.Hotel-Information) > - [Costa Rica Surf Camp by SUPERbrand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Costa-Rica-Surf-Camp-By-SUPERbrand.h17702230.Hotel-Information) > - [Tiki Villas Rainforest Lodge & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Tiki-Villas-Rainforest-Lodge-Spa.h8126251.Hotel-Information) > - [Macaw Lodge ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carara-Hotels-Macaw-Lodge-An-Authentic-Ecolodge.h6778240.Hotel-Information) > - [Santa Juana Lodge and Nature Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Santa-Juana-Lodge-And-Nature-Reserve.h10501821.Hotel-Information) > - [Iguana Lodge Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Iguana-Lodge-Spa-Beach-Resort.h6882446.Hotel-Information) > - [Chayote Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naranjo-Hotels-Chayote-Lodge.h9716642.Hotel-Information) > - [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > - [Koora Hotel by Sandglass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Aguti-Lodge-Reserve.h33594530.Hotel-Information) > - [Casa Luna Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Luna-Hotel-Spa.h2305532.Hotel-Information) > - [Hideaway Rio Celeste](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Katira-Hotels-Hotel-Rio-Celeste-Hideaway.h3858533.Hotel-Information) > - [Cristal Ballena Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Cristal-Ballena-Boutique-Hotel-Spa.h1386896.Hotel-Information) > - [Maquenque Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boca-Arenal-Hotels-Maquenque-Eco-Lodge.h4147006.Hotel-Information) > - [Vista Ballena](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Vista-Ballena.h10617842.Hotel-Information) > - [Villas Rio Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Villas-Rio-Mar.h66109.Hotel-Information) ---
