The staff was incredibly friendly ! This man smiles all the time and was really helpful with our luggage since we arrived to early. The pool is great, the room was very clean and the shower even had hot water (a luxury in costa rica). We really recommend this place !!!

We loved our stay at the hotel! First of all, the design of the hotel is beautiful, not only the overall buildings, but also the details. Also, the service was very good, including the check-in process, the breakfast and the room service. We always felt very welcome thanks to the friendly staff. Lastly, the hotel is secure, with the front door being locked all day, and the beach and some restaurants can be reached by walking.

Delicious breakfast the bed is the one of the best bed we slept in during our trip in Costa Rica. Room super cute and clean. Leonardo is an amazing host. It was raining a lot when we were there and Leonardo treally ried his best to help us planing the rest of our trip by contacting friends. Unfortunatly, because of the rain we did not have the chance to enjoy the beautiful view but we are sure it is amazing !

Was only here for a night but loved it. It’s very clean and looks nice, I would say better than the photos. I stayed in the «Superior Pod in a room of 10» and it was great. Comfy, privacy, aircon, space to put your bag by your bed, big locker, lights and charging outlets by your bed. We got free towels and really good free breakfast. Friendly staff and plenty of social area. Super near the bus station. Really good pizzeria next door. Highly recommend!

It's a hidden gem. We regretted to have only stayed two nights. The view is amazing, there are tucans flying around in close proximity, the pool is large and there were only few other guests. The food is delicious, too, and the owners are very approachable. Waiters are very friendly and it's quite close to the Marino Ballena National Park. Book it, you won't regret it.

    Everything was perfect, our host was very nice and available for every questions we had. The pool and the terrace have beautiful view to the sea and you can observe lot of birds from those places. Breakfast was delicious. The hotel is very well located, close to Uvita and Park Marino Ballena.
