This hotel was an amazing experience for our honeymoon and first time in Costa Rica! Staff is very nice and always available to assist. The grounds are well kept and gorgeous. The pools were fun to play in, or soak at the end a long day of adventures. The slides were a nice touch. We'd love to return.

Restful and fun rainforest stay
The hotel, restaurants, and coffee/cocoa tour were all five stars. We were very impressed and would happily come back, this is a wonderful place. Our private pool overlooking the rain forest was particularly amazing, and the kids loved the water slide into the river.

We loved staying here. Staff was all super amazing and the grounds were gorgeous. I liked both their casual bar area and nicer restaurant for dinner. It was nice being close enough to go to La fortuna but not in the craziness.

The overall experience was average. The staff is helpful and welcoming. The room was clean and had everything we needed. However, the facilities are showing signs of wear and tear and the seats outside have moist smell due to high humidity.
