Great location and property. The amenities like the pool and theater were awesome. Direct access to the beach to watch the surfers and experience the volcano rocks expanded our love for the property. The shell filled beach was truly unlike other places in the world. We loved our stay. Recommend if you want a taste of the nightlife in tamarindo as well.

The property is older but very nice. It was nice and quiet and not really a party place. Just wish they had more activities to do and the biggest let down was the location of the beachfront. Not very nice looking but in town the beach was amazing. The restaurant was decent not spectacular. I just found the staff mot very attentive almost had to always go to them for something especially at dinner. Very rarely checking up on you or filling your water or offer drinks. Did I hate it? No but I didnt exactly love it. Probably won't stay again

The resort is small and located close to Tamarindo. The buffet and snacks were about as expected for an all inclusive with fountain pop and water coolers in central locations. I would not call this a 5 star if you are comparing to Mexico. Its likely a 4 at best. The restaurants on site were ok..better food in town. There seems to be alot of locals who show up for the weekend so the pool and beach becomes very busy however during the week the place was dead. The drink selection is ok with plenty of off brand liquor and some decent premium liquor included but items like spiced rum was considered for vip and the cost of that extra is not worth it. AC works great in the rooms as does the mini fridge. The same tired live band plays twice a day and seems to only have one set. The entertainment is very plain and basic but the people are very friendly and were easy to deal with. We enjoyed the stay but spent more time in town enjoying what Tamarindo had to offer for food and drinks. The beach area and estuary were the best part of this resort. Lots of sand and the water rushing in and out of the estuary made it fun to hang around in to beat the heat.

The layout of the property was nice. The food, was ok, buffet could have used some different options day to day. The cook and serving staff were awesome. Unfortunately the only thing I found that I didn’t like was the bar staff. Long waits for drinks because they were “busy” with the younger girls and they never stirred drinks after making them. Also were very stingy on the pours, I am used to free pours at an all inclusive and these staff were using jiggers to pour an ounce. Overall, the resort was what i was looking for.
