This Resort and the staff made our trip to Costa Rica a magical one! The front desk, the waiters, the Spa crew and the whole crew were so welcoming, and honestly were there to help us with anything. The resort itself is beautiful. It has hiking trails with waterfalls so much nature and such a calming and relaxing environment. The breakfast is delicious and the service is top-notch! The pools are clean and every part of that resort has a beautiful view. We want to give a special shout out to Karla at the front desk. She is the sweetest, most helpful and amazing front desk that we have ever met! Deymi and Maria in the spa were wonderful. They made our spa experience so good we are definitely visiting again!

Beautiful and quiet resort to escape a world of technology. Amazing views over the city. Wifi not so effective throughout the property but that was more time to unplug. There's only one restaurant with the same menu for Lunch and Dinner and adds up fast, so have Uber eats ready. Also bring your own snacks. Take the time and Bamboo stick to the Waterfalls and Jungle. End your last day with the Jacuzzi Massage combo. They ALL were great.

This Place delivered more than what the pictures showed. We Flew in pretty late. Staff was waiting for us to arrive. Room was spacious. Balcony had good view of the city. Comfy Bed. Breakfast was good. Also had Dinner which was delicious. The place felt private and not crowded. Staff was very friendly. A trail to walk led to several pretty waterfalls. The pool was clean and had a good view of the city. Would definitely recommend.
Typical Breakfast with fresh fruits to choose from.

The property and the grounds are beautiful! The restaurant is amazing! Kudos to the chefs! Every meal was great! Kendall and Oscar were our servers each day we were there and they were the nicest and most attentive people! Truly kind and welcoming and exceeded all expectations of a server. Note, Oscar makes the best White Russian! The pools and hot tubs are very well maintained. Hiking around their grounds, do beware! It is a lot of up and down, deep steps, and a lot more vigorous than we expected! Hiking boots are a must! No sandals or flip flops. I also suggest you let the front staff know you’re going (and when you get back) as once you are out there, you are screwed if something happens. When it’s rained, it is muddy, slippery, and can be dangerous. We are not the most physically fit people being in our late 50s but, we did it and at times it was rough. Note there are also no ATM machines at the hotel or nearby! If you don’t already have cash, there is no way to tip this well deserving staff! Plan some tours as it will get boring as there is not much to do here. The hotel will help you with that as well. We loved it there and hope to return someday.

The views from the villas, restaurants, pools anywhere you are on the property are breath taking . The spa brings tranquility with the most amazing view . The food is delicious. Breakfast is complimentary . The trails are a must that lead to a waterfall at 70 ft above. I planted a tree in memory of my late husband. This first trip to Costa Rica has been amazing and I will definitely be back again . Pura Vida !

Overall, we had a great stay. Room was very spacious and beds very comfortable. I do wish they had a TV and microwave in room! Staff very humble and helpful at all times. Also, you had to order room service by 8:30 pm. In addition, you had to make a reservation for breakfast and dinner everyday. Restaurant food needs an upgrade but gallo pinto was the best traditional food for breakfast. Also food was quite expensive, much like the US. We did much better eating off the resort at traditional Costa Rican restaurants. Soda places were the best and very inexpensive. Like three orders with drinks for $30 US or less depending on what you ordered. Foods were well seasoned and very filling. When it comes to shopping be prepared, Costa Rica is very expensive. We booked a few tours and the driver Luis Madrigal made our stay! He is a great driver and very knowledgeable about Costa Rica! We do not speak Spanish but found it very easy to communicate with Luis through the Google Translate App. If you ever visit ask for Luis, you will not regret it. We had Don Fabio one day as our driver and he was great as well. Not much English but we did okay communicating with using translation app.
