Building, installations, service, views and environment

The fact that you need to go through a high hill

the hotel is at the top of a hill away from everything else. the views are fantastic. It is quiet and peaceful the staff were really friendly and helpful. Good food

nothing it was great.

What a magical place. We went before Easter so it was quiet but in any case it is a small hotel so I don't think it can get very busy. From all the places we stayed in Costa Rica this was the BEST. The views and the set up was breathtaking.

Roads to get there not the best but I guess that's the price to pay to be in such a beautiful place.

This place is truly a piece of paradise. The pictures don’t even do it justice. When you arrive you are greeted with a welcome drink, incredible service and a view that is truly breathtaking. The property has been thoughtfully conceived to immerse guests in luxury, whilst feeling part of nature. We saw toucans, humming birds and even the resident sloth, Lola, and her baby sloth! The food was faultless - so much choice and freshly prepared for each meal. Each of the 6 bedrooms in the main property have an incredible view over the ocean and beyond. We had plans for our time at Lapazul but decided to abandon them and just stay and appreciate what a truly exceptional place it is.

Not a dislike, but a 4x4 is recommended as it’s quite a steep journey up - but well worth it for the views!

It was all great, very new and clean. My wife loved it; great romantic sunsets for Valentine's night. Excellent friendly staff.

The road going up is steep but this is Costa Rica better get used to that.

Very good food and included breakfast. Amazing sunsets and VERY romantic rooms. The service was excellent. Very nice property with a great pool.

The concrete/dirt road up to the hotel is very steep, and 4x4 is needed, especially in the wet season, from May to Oct 31.

The best and most beautiful Hotel during roundtrip through Costa Rica. We felt in love and we will definitely come back. From the kind staff to the amazing hotel premises and the fantastic view we loved everything. The perfect place to relax.

It was excellent, and from a menu, not a buffet. I could also order smoothies, expresso, and cappuccinos.

The road up there from the highway is steep but paved. 4x4 is best and needed in the rainy season; from May to the end of November.

This hotel is a little gem, located on the side of a hill in the jungle, with a perfect view of the sunset over the ocean. There are just a few rooms and staff members, and it feels like a retreat from the busy touristic sites. The views from and of the pool are also fantastic!

Can't think of anything

Amazing boutique hotel with great view and infinity pool. staff was very friendly and rooms are specious with own patio for evenings chill out. we stayed in couple of places in Costa Rica but this is truly gem 👌 should be rated 5 ⭐️

excellent place you can blame only weather as nothing else to dislike here!

rooms are perfect food is really tasty the view is amazing the lapazul people are really kind and helpful the paradise on earth

The food is amazing, service outstanding, beautiful hotel and location

The Hotel was great, very confortable rooms with amazing views of the pacific ocean. The best thing was the staff, Esteban and David (chef) were amazing hosts. The Food was also great and overall would highly recommend it.

We live in Florida, so it's all flat land, the road to get there has some steep areas, so my wife got a bit nervous and we did get lost trying to find it, it's not bad at all, just make sure you are comfortable driving in the mountains as you go from main road up to the hotel; however, this is the case for most of Costa Rica.

Although the hotel ánd its staff are fantastic, it still has some startup issues .. if you charge prices like that, there can be no hick-ups …

Red wine from the fridge .. to much sesame (literally a mountain on the tuna), Parc Manuel Antonio is open on Monday and closed on Tuesday… if you charge at low-season what this hotel charges, there can be no room for error …, also .. this hotel is in no way “ Beachfront” which it advertises….

Outstanding/breathtaking view and nice pool. Relaxing atmosphere. Remote setting which let you feel like you are alone in the world. Beautiful sunset view. Very spacious room with nice view. Big bathroom. We did not try lunch nor dinner even tho it was looking tasty.

Breakfast choice rather limited. We were charged for the water we asked upon arrival, which for this level of hotel should be provided (like welcome drinks). By choosing Gallo Pinto, omelette and fruit platter for breakfast, we were charged an additional 14US for Gallo Pinto which is a total non sense. Fruit platter was ridiculous and should be free (was 7US on the menu). In every hotel, even on the cheapest budget, fruits were given for free... Cappuccino was also extra in the morning which is a joke. Room rather basic missing design touch. So all in all it's small details that needs to be improved and leaves a bitter taste at the end for this price category. Far from the beach and shops (so shop if you need before arrival). Waterflow from the overhead shower not working properly.
