Great spot for a family vacation in Tamarindo. Good location, close to town, about 15 minute walk, but secluded from night life and noise. Staff were super friendly. We love playing beach volleyball in the evenings with the entertainment crew.

Nice all inclusive resort for the price, buffets had a good selection, drinks are made a little on the weak side and pool bar is usually short staffed. Still worth the value.

Loved the grounds, the buffet was great, and the rooms were lovely. My only complaint? Get new pillows. It was like sleeping on a bag of golf balls.

It’s a tired hotel and definitely understaffed but the food options were always great and the location is unmatched. It is located in the quieter Playa Langosta but still close enough to Tamarindo for some outings.

Great for a chill time. The basic rooms are just that…so if you are just looking for a clean comfortable place to sleep because you want to lay out by the pool/beach and not think about food, this is a perfect place. If you are super bougie, you may be disappointed if you book their standard room. The spa and staff there are fabulous and do a great job.

Poor bar service in the pool area. They could try a lot harder to serve guests easier. Edwin could have been a lot nicer to the traveling guests. He was a real peach to the locals but very rude to anyone else.

The only thing missing is a swim-up bar. Try the Piccadillo at breakfast. Leo on the beach can sign you up for FANTASTIC tours. Adina, who is part of the wait staff, is the absolute best. Always friendly and goes above and beyond.

This place is passable. It's on the beach, has a good pool, and the sunset just outside the hotel is stunning. Unfortunately, I couldn't help but feel like the hotel cut corners. The food was decent at best, the staff seemed overworked and unappreciated, And they kept running out of things at integral parts of our trip. Truthfully, I was disappointed in Expedia for listing this as a 4 star hotel. It could be, but issues need to be addressed before I would agree with them.

6/10

The property was clean and well-maintained, which we appreciated. Staff were friendly and courteous, but there’s room for improvement in overall service. The buffet experience fell short, with inconsistent water service and table settings. Towel supply also varied during our stay, with hand towels or face cloths occasionally missing. Unfortunately, the à la carte dining didn’t offer much of an upgrade, with food quality not far off from the standard buffet fare.
