The place was great! The room was clean and had everything you need for a short stay. The air conditioning was a huge plus. I would not recommend the food at the restaurant, however. It is overpriced and bland. But the property grounds were beautiful and the staff were kind and helpful.

Loved the positive and unique vibe of this hotel. Beautiful pool and great restaurant. Staff was very nice as well. It was like an Oasis, and a convenient 20+ minute drive to the airport. Great value too.

This is a little hidden gem in Alajeula! The restaurant/bar staff was especially friendly, helpful and polite. The bartender/mgr. Christopher, was exemplary! drinks were excellent, breakfast was quite tasty. The grounds are so lovely, we just regret we didn’t have more time to walk the trails of the property. The road facing room we had was pretty sparse and a bit noisy. I would recommend you upgrade to at least an interior room.

The room was very basic but clean. Stayed two nights and ate at the restaurant both nights. The food was very good and the service was even better! Very friendly and helpful staff!!! I can't say enough about the staff here. Christopher made amazing cocktails! The nicest staff I have met at a hotel. Very laid back atmosphere! The walking paths were nice and the property was beautiful! We got in at 1 am the first night due to delayed flight and didnt feel unsafe at all. They helped us to our room and we were asleep for the rest of the morning! I would definitely stay here again!
