This is truly a nice getaway oasis. The rooms are nicely arranged and clean. Really relaxing swimming pool. Some decent restaurants nearby and Jaco is a short taxi ride away for more shopping stores. The best is staff. They are a very dedicated staff. Shout out to Chelsea for handling some changes to my reservation by phone. She made it easy. Oh, lastly, the view is amazing and if you surf you are going to be very happy.

The staff at the welcome desk were very friendly and helpful. The property is beautiful and right off the beach where you can walk along the water to find a good meal or drink to watch the surfers. The rooms are well maintained and the ocean waves are heard from the rooms.

Our room had absolutely amazing views and was very clean and comfortable with good air conditioning. We were in one of the beach view rooms with a large patio and extra bedroom. The property was very quiet. I couldn't hear the noise from the road behind, only the ocean waves. The pool was clean and surrounded by lovely landscaping.
The nearby restaurants and bars had a relaxed vibe and plenty of food options. We enjoyed walking down the beach for breakfast and other meals. The scenery was stunning. I highly recommend it, especially if you want a quieter beach than you'll find in Jaco.

We came here because of the advertising for surfing beach. However when we arrived there was a permanent sign on the gate going to the beach with no swimming. Turns out this is for expert surfers. Not for family's. Morning staff not friendly. Had to bring a broken coffee maker to front desk because my machine was broke and she gave me another broken one. Then blamed it on me and walked me back to room to only discover it was broken. No apology. This place would be excellent for professional surfers.

First we are in mid to late 60’s age range. No breakfast was advertised and there was a great place for eating within walking distance(short). But it is very hot at Beaches now, so even for us a short walk and we were covered in sweat. Also they do have some snacks in refrigerator in room, but charge a little high for chips and candy bars.Our superior room was great with sounds and views of ocean. TV’s only with about 2 English Channels..odd in tourist location. Had Britt Keurig cup type machine in room which was great except we were told that each room got 3 kcups daily.. then you had to pay for more. Dorm sized refrigerator in room.. no microwave. When asked front desk for a washcloth were given like an American hand towel.We would stay there again only for views and it was pet friendly. Nothing else

We felt like we were in our own mini resort. The hotel only has 8 rooms (2 suites and 6 jr suites), and all with balconies & ocean views. The pool was relaxing and the ocean just steps away. Away from the chaos of Jaco. We absolutely loved our stay here.

It is apparent that the owner takes good care of the people and property. The front desk (Chelsie) went above and beyond to help schedule and navigate the area. The room and facilities were very clean. Highly recomended.
