Reviews and Ratings
The resort is a hidden gem nestled in the jungle, offering peaceful and serene surroundings. The rooms are cozy, with a lovely balcony overlooking the lush greenery. While the location is ideal for nature lovers, it may require some work to access other attractions nearby. The dining options are delicious, and the facilities, including heated jacuzzis, enhance the overall stay.
The hotel room exceeded my expectations with its abundance of light switches, outdoor shower, jacuzzi tub, and natural decor. However, the dampness made bedtime uncomfortable. Overall, the room was simply amazing - huge, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and furnished.
My stay at this hotel was absolutely fantastic! The rooms were insanely clean, beautiful, and much more spacious than expected, complete with a four-poster bed, a sofa, a big wardrobe, double sinks, a large walk-in shower, an outside shower, and a large veranda decorated with rose petals for our honeymoon celebration. The terrace view was excellent, and I enjoyed the spacious showers, AC, television reception, and Wi-Fi. The location was ideal for exploring the area, particularly for visiting Tenorio National Park and being very close to Rio Celeste. The dining experience was amazing, offering a fruit buffet, fresh-squeezed juice, and a delicious menu to choose from. Overall, a truly memorable experience!
I had an amazing time at this hotel! The rooms were as nice as I've ever seen, spacious, and super comfortable. The fact that each room is like its own little bungalow made it wonderfully private. The service was top-notch, with great offerings like room service, car hire, and housekeeping. The location was perfect, with a fish pond and game room, just a short drive from Tenorio National Park. The dining experience, complete with an omelet station, was really good. Overall, a fantastic stay with just a few minor drawbacks.
