This is authentic Costa Rica. Absolutely beautiful property in the world of many critters including dogs, a raccoon, crabs, and crawly critters. It's best to just embrace that factor because if you're looking for a beautiful, off the beaten path stay with the highest quality staff this is your pick. We had a wonderful stay

Great beach location, funky smell in our rooms. Pool was nice, but needed repairs on surrounding deck. Breakfast was satisfactory, but staff struggled with communication compared to our other accommodations. Beautiful room and views from room.

It's in a very layback small hotel. Just in front of a secluded beach... It had great internet, even reach the beach lounger. Simple but very filling breakfast. Also one extra good point checking is 1.30pm so perfect after check out from previous destination. This is manage by a very friendly family. If you are looking for a calm relax oasis this is for you. If you're looking for a place with a lot of people to serve you and in the middle of action is not. We just wanted to rest after very active previous days and this was perfect, truly enjoy it!!

Luxury peaceful accommodations on the beach.

Perfection on every level! Garden rooms with a pristine beach a short walk away! The most comfortable beds and welcoming atmosphere! This is our favorite place to stay in Costa Rica! The highlight is the owner who creates the best food we’ve ever had in our lives. Everything she made was so delicious. We love the rescue animals that live at the resort and look forward to returning soon.
