Cala Luna was a cute boutique hotel. The service was amazing, the food at the restaurant, highly recommend and the layout respected the landscape. However, for the price compared to other places we went to in Costa Rica, this property was way overpriced. First the rooms though comfy didn't have much storage space and if you had another guest next door, you can hear everything. We had one guy snoring next door to us and watching TV at 3am making it a challenge to sleep. Also, when we went it was low season with only 26 guests so they adjusted the options for breakfast, which was okay for us. If you get this place for $300 CDN then okay, but your high end experience will not be that of Tamarindo Diria or Westin. For comparison, for 4 nights it was $2000 CDN and that was down season.

- **Room Issues:** There was no hot water in my room for two days, and the air conditioning didn’t work upon my arrival, taking nearly two hours to repair. - **Mosquito Control:** Unlike other resorts I’ve visited in the Caribbean and Mexico, Cala Luna did not have outdoor mosquito repellent incense lit up during meals, which would have enhanced the dining experience. Additionally, I discovered that there was a trash area just meters away from my room. Hotel workers mentioned that this contributed to an increased infestation of spiders, insects, and mosquitoes, amplifying the issue and making it difficult to enjoy the outdoor spaces. Occasionally, the odor was really pungent. - **Checkout Process:** The checkout process was frustrating, with multiple computing errors causing a delay of over 30 minutes.

They dont believe in thresholds for the entrance doors. There were pleny of bugs including a hand size spider in the kitchen. It was so large I had to kill it with a chair leg. There was no way I could sleep in this beutiful condo with the bugs and big gaps in the entrance doors. The large spider was the last straw. The entrance roads were unpaved. Potholes big enough to damage your car. Cala Luna is a great place if you dont care about large spiders and many other sa\ma;; pests that you can hear when you sleep. I left and booked at another place after I killed that whopper spider. Whoh!!!

The night I checked in it was pouring rain. As they showed me the long way to get to my room so I could see around, they did not help me with my luggage but did hand me an umbrella. I had my suitcase, shoulder bag and the umbrella while all she had was her umbrella. Then when I was checking out they tried to charge me close to $300 extra. Also, I had made an error while booking my stay and they said they weren’t able to help me with my situation because I booked it through Expedia. However, other resorts have been able to help me. When I went down to the beach there were no chairs down there and no one to help me or bring one down for me. I was very disappointed with this resort and def would not give them 5 stars. Possibly 3.5
