    We used the laundry service provided by the hotel. Four pieces of our clothes were returned with heavy bleach stains, thus ruining them. The staff tried to somehow blame us for the bleach stains. We are still waiting to hear back from management about getting compensation for our ruined clothes.

    Lovely hotel in a great location. The room was modern and clean. The jungle area right outside the room and pool was fabulous for watching all sorts of wildlife. The included breakfast was tasty.

    Food was substandard. Seemed to be precooked and just warmed up in a microwave. No flavor. Not the staffs fault, just likely lower quality equivalent to fast food.

    Clean and safe. Helpful staff.

    Just a small advice, they should have a vent in the bathroom

    Beautiful hotel literally in the jungle. We saw monkeys and parrots sitting in our balcony. Very modern and clean. Walking distance to a nice beach and to the town. The staff was super helpful

    Nothing

    The room was really nice but the best thing was all of the wildlife that visited a tree a meter from our balcony we saw squirrel monkeys, a howler monkey and toucans every day The location is also good with a 10 minute walk uphill to all the restaurants in town and 15 downhill to the beach

    The hotel is beautiful, the staff is very friendly and helpful, the restaurant great. Our favorite part of the hotel was the pool. Also, it feels very private and relaxing. We felt very safe. It was cool that we saw a sloth on a bamboo by the pool! You feel close to nature but really comfortable at the same time.

    Nothing really. People mention the road. It is on a steep road so vehicles strain going up. We were worried about sleeping. However the traffic seems to disappear around 10pm and start again around 7am. So we had no problems and with the very comfy beds we had a great sleep.

    This was a lovely kitted out modern hotel. The room and facilities were really great. The design ensured the balconies faced the forest and there was always activity going with animals. The pools, lounge areas and restaurant were really good. Best breakfast of the holiday. Staff were fantastic and helpful. the hotel is on a steep hill so walking down was easy and we always managed to get a taxi or local bus back to avoid the walk uphill. There are good number of bars. restaurants, supermarkets, ATMs around. The beaches are stunning. The National Park is so busy but worth it. We had a guide.

    Roadside traffic noise. No lift to our block so if you need one ensure you request room in other block as has one.

    Overlooking the jungle yet good location to walk to cafes and restaurants. Spacious rooms with nice shower and microwave etc. We saw sloth monkeys and toucans from our balcony.

    Limited parking. Had to ask staff to move their car so we could park one night.

    Modern and spacious room with amazing view to the forest. Spotted several monkeys and macaws from the balcony. Few minutes drive to Manuel Antonio.

    It's not related to the property, but the way to the bus is very steep and dark during the evening, with no pedestrian sidewalk.

    The property is surrounded by trees full of animals (we were three nights and we could see a sloth, two different group of monkeys and birds). The two pools next to the restaurant are open until 11pm. Staff overall were very kind and extremely helpful. The room was quite large with a small kitchen, living room and a balcony. The hotel is 400 mts from the bus stop (c. 390 per person to Quepos or Manuel Antonio Park) and there are lots of international restaurants around the area.

    We were a little disappointed in our room as it was ground level and right in front of pool so not very private. However, we would book here again but just make sure the room is up higher level.

    The monkeys! The property is in a beautiful spot and not too large.

    Comfortable hotel, very close to the gates of Manuel Antonio Park

    The hotel is located by the street so during the day you can hear some noise. The night is quiet. It is good to know that the beach that is close to the hotel is quite far and going back you have to make steep uphills walk. If you have a car it does not make a problem.

    The hotel is quite new, all the amenities are well-maintained. Our room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and comfortable. There was a kitchen with a fridge in our apartment, which was convenient as we could prepare some fresh fruits by ourselves. Breakfast was delicious, you could choose from a few different options, and you got also some fresh fruits and juice. There was also a possibility to have coffee for takeaway. The restaurant has a short menu but the dishes that we tried were delicious and of very good quality. The staff, both at the front desk and restaurant was polite, attentive, and helpful and they all are doing an excellent job. The rooms and pool are out looking in the jungle where you easily can spot some animals (sloths, monkeys, birds). Parking in front of the hotel is small, but we never have had problems finding the place.
