Everything you need is right there. The communication with the staff was as easy as it could be. Everyone was so welcoming, attentive, and helpful, which made the entire stay even more enjoyable. The property also has a restaurant, and the food was amazing! Breakfast in the morning was especially beautiful and delicious, it was honestly the perfect way to start each day. And I have to mention Flaka, the sweetest dog on the property! 🐶 she would greet us every morning and was just the happiest, most lovable dog. I definitely will be back. My only regret is that I didn’t stay long enough , it honestly wasn’t enough days! Araya Resort made my birthday weekend so special, and I’m already looking forward to returning."
