San Miguel Holidays from £1,497

The resort offers beautiful ocean views, several pool options, and great trails for exploring nature, where you may see monkeys and other beautiful sights. Overall, I had a great experience at the hotel. The only downside was a strange musty or mold-like smell in my room, which was a bit off-putting despite the room being very clean. A friend of mine had a similar issue in his room, and the hotel promptly moved him to another room, which he appreciated. While it did not ruin my stay, it may be something the hotel should look into, as other guests may be more sensitive to it.

This property was absolutely amazing. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. The property was stunning. The room was fantastic. This place is paradise.

The hotel was nice enough and we enjoyed walking the trails to the waterfall. However, I would NOT recommend this hotel, particularly the Villa Prima Mountain View suite. We were kept awake by multiple dogs barking nearby for several hours and spoke to the front desk about the problem twice before being given a different room to sleep in. There were no fans available in the room for white noise and despite the windows being closed, we could hear sounds from outside very loudly. This was a big disruption to our stay as we were just there for one night before our flight out of San Jose. Staff were apologetic but not proactive. We were also charged $72 for three margaritas at dinner, $10/drink for the margarita mix plus $14/drink for Don Julio tequila.

Excellent lodge allowing the guest to connect with nature. Dining was excellent. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely recommend to anyone who loves the outdoors.
