Great hotel and spot in Costa Rica. We loved the staff and activities. Ronnie the bartender at the Aqua bar makes the most amazing drinks! Our house keeper Olga was excellent. Our room always looked like we had just checked in. Great food, great drinks, great location!

We absolutely loved our stay!
The lobby was very far from our room and required transportation to reach, and with such a short stay, we didn't get back there for our VIP benefit.
In my opinion, they should have had it ready for us when we arrived so we wouldn't have to chase them for it.

I really enjoyed our week stay here. The place is very hilly, but we didn't mind so much. You have to make sure you snag chairs by the pool early because it gets HOT in the afternoon and you don't want to get stuck under the sun. The staff was all extremely friendly. I could tell some of them appreciated when you talked in Spanish, they seemed to not expect it from most people, but then got excited when you understood. The food was all great, our favorite was the Asian restaurant. The bartenders know what they are doing, we asked for random things and they always gave us something good!

Beautiful site! Wonderful experience. Some of the rooms were far away from the main area but we lucked out and were very close. Staff friendly, fun, attentive. Made so many new friends. Dining menus signified foods containing gluten or dairy which I appreciated immensely.
