We have stayed at Casa de Campo several times over the past 10 years, it's always a delight. This is a small, boutique hotel in Central America. Lovely as it is, it is not the Ritz, so just plan & mentally adjust your expectations. The staff is kind & helpful. The gentleman at the front desk spoke English. The pool area is lovely & very clean. The grounds are beautiful & well cared for. Over the past few years, the reception area has been enlarged & now includes some drinks & gourmet (as well as essential) food items for sale. (Their is a mini refrigerator in the room). Apparently, the hotel owners have formed a business partnership with others & the restaurant/bar is now more substantial. They gave us a welcome drink upon arrival. The "marina" room (poolside) is my favorite-beautiful!!
