    The hosts are the kindest, nicest, most helpful people. The breakfasts and meals at the restaurant are worthy of Michelin Five stars, the best in Costa Rica. The room was extremely comfortable and exceptionally clean. The location is astoundingly beautiful with a gorgeous private beach across the road. All tours and transportation were expertly handled. I highly recommend this hotel!

    Edwina and Jonathan the owners of the hotel were super sweet and very helpful. They really went out of their way to make sure you had a good stay. The hotel was charming and really good value. .. and we made some very interesting other guest. . Great breakfast in the morning/ in the restaurant was really good value and delicious. I would definitely go back.

    No hot water ( not as described) although the owner insisted it was- clearly not true.

    Further away from town so be prepared to eat at the on site restaurant every meal. On the most part the resturant was fine though

    Amazing private beach nearby! One the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Tours here are much more expensive than other places but you can see why. The hotel is a comfy and basic and very clean.

    The price of the food at the restaurant was quite expensive for what it was - average of 7.000 c for a dish.

    The property was well maintained and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

    Good basic lodging located in a more remote area away from town.

    The lodging is located about 2 miles from the beachhead where the boat from Sierpe drops you. Most of the businesses, restaurants, etc. are located at the beachhead. It was a long walk into town and back to the lodging.

    The staff were extremely attentive and friendly. There is a walk to the beach directly across from the lodging. The meals prepared by the chef were very good.

    The Corcovado tour was very well coordinated with the hotel so it was simple to follow. Very clean rooms, and the staff was very nice.

    The room had a strong smell of cigarette smoke which made it a bit uncomfortable and difficult to sleep.

    We booked the room with the view and the view was beautiful and we loved the location and space. The balcony and the fridge are a nice touch. The staff were all super friendly.

    The beds weren’t really comfortable and the rooms get really, really hot even when it’s not hot outside. No warm water in the shower. Nothing to put your stuff in really at least in our room.

    Very simple hotel but okay. We didn’t love it here but we liked it. Depends on what you’re looking for. The food was a little pricy but good. Beach was nice and we were almost alone there. It’s really relaxed there and quiet.

    The room was really hot with no AC (we went to a couple of places without AC and it was not a problem but here it was really uncomfortable). The owners seemed to only care that we will buy a tour through them and seemed really angry when we chose another company, and were not very accommodating. bed was uncomfortable with bad sheets that got of the bed all the time, so we did not get good night sleep. The location is very far from city center.

    The breakfast was good. There is a small private beach next to the hotel that was nice.

    A couple of times we arrived back at the property after 7pm and the gate was already locked shut, so we had to contact the owner to be let in, while waiting in the rain. Some staff weren’t as friendly as they could have been, and it was noisy at times as our bathroom backed onto a shared bathroom. One morning the cleaner walked straight into our room before 8am without knocking. Very basic rooms, with little character or bedside lamps etc.

    It’s a pretty little place to stay and family owned, nice and clean, and the dogs are lovely to have around. Near a private beach which was beautiful and great for sunset. Breakfast is good.

    Pictures didn’t fully match the actual place. A mosquito net over the bed would have been helpful.

    Helpful staff and good location with boat pickup just in front at the beach, 3km from town. Good organisation of taxi pickups. Breakfast was included, so price was good overall.

    Laundry service is way overpriced. To reach the hotel, make sure you ask your contact of the hotel which route you have to take, because the gps system tries to send you through a river, but there's another route which has a bridge. The road to it is only doable with a jeep + there's no phone connection to reach someone. So make sure you get the right directions

    The hostel is superclean, has great breakfast, and it's nice that you can book a tour through them (they also make sure you get a decent breakfast before you leave). The rooms are basic, but everything is very clean all the time! & They have cool pets 😍
