"The hotel is next to a mini market and POPs ice cream store. It also walking distance from playas mantas. The pool is large and nice. The restaurant is mediocre at best. Unfortunately, there are no other options for food, other than the hotel restaurant and maybe one more place. We had to drive to the main road in order to get other restaurant choices."
"Great everything. This place really stands out among the many hotels in Jaco . The staff , Ronald and Kimberly were extraordinary , the swimming pool as good as it gets !!
Breakfast rocked !! Oh , the location is near some amazing waterfalls , which you can do on your own if you walk upstream in the nearby river .

"The home is overall beautiful- modern, well furnished. The view and outside area are gorgeous. The drive up and driveway are scary the first time, but you get use it and it’s worth it for the seclusion and view. House manager and caretaker were very responsive. Caretaker lives below the house. The negatives- the upstairs hall bath had a horrible odor like sewage all week. It was obviously know as the windows were open (letting all kinds of spiders and bugs) when we arrived, along with air fresheners. It was a shame as this bathroom had the open window to the view to shower by. Our biggest complaint was the active construction site directly next door, right beside the pool deck. This should have been disclosed in the listing so had the informed choice to book this property knowing our planned 10 days of relaxation would not be possible. We would not have booked. 7am steel beam drop offs, cement trucks running for hours, 7am-4pm drills, hammers, saws, and the men singing off key- right beside were we had planned to relax and refresh. To say it was a major disappointment and frustration all week is an understatement. By the time they stopped daily there was an hour left of daylight before we had to retreat in and the bugs took over. They only did not work on Sunday. It was wrong this was not disclosed at time of booking so we could have made a choice about how to spend our family vacation. "

Spectacular Beach House, Spacious, Luxury, the Best.
10/10 Excellent
"This house is spectactular! We stayed here with our kids and another family in early April 2025. We enjoyed seeing more than 30 scarlet macaws each morning flying and roosting in the trees right beside the house, with the sunrise and mountains in the background. This is one of the only areas in Costa Rica where scarlet macaws can be found in the wild. We also saw a toucan and many iguanas on the property. The house is fantastic with all of the glass windows and lighted pool. The property manager Chris was great to work with and very responsive. We also enjoyed a great meal from Chef Sharlton. The property owner also provided passes to the nearby Punta Leona beach club, and we enjoyed using those pools, that property, and the beach shuttle as well. If you want a spectacular house surrounded by nature and wildlife, this is the house for you! We would book this again!"
