"Big, clean rooms. Excellent breakfast and dinner menu.
Friendly staff.
It is a 2 minute walk up beach, this beach is quite rustic and a few more minutes to walk to more sandy beach.
My only con was the outdoor grounds could have used a power wash and the pool sitting area was dirty and slimy. "
"From the staff to the studio that I had and the surroundings, I couldn't ask for a better place to spend a vacation. The staff were very friendly and curtious, always there to serve you in anything that you may need during your stay.I would definitely recommend and visit again. "

"I loved having the butler service as well as our Expedia perks. It was an amazing time and I’m
Upset we didn’t stay longer. All employees were awesome. I would recommend. "
"The highlight of staying at this hotel is the beautiful gardens which surround the villas and pool. From our balcony we enjoyed looking out onto flowering tropical plants, palms and listening to the birds sing.
The photos in the ad for this hotel are exactly what you can expect. The villas enjoy the use of a small pool surrounded by beautiful gardens. It is a wonderful space to relax. I'm addition to having beautiful grounds the hotel is only a short five minute walk from the beach.
The villa itself was comfortable and very clean. It had a studio layout with a small couch and table and chairs. The balcony was a highlight for us and we spent time there in the morning and evening when it wasn't too hot.
The stairway up to the villa entrance could be cleaned. I don't think it was swept during our stay and dirt and leaves accumulated over time. At night ants could be seen crawling along the ceiling in the room which was unsettling, but they never bothered us. We learned during our trip to accept the presence of insects in our accommodations as part of life in a tropical climate.
Breakfast was included every morning at the restaurant and it was quite tasty. There were a few different options to choose from and each was accompanied with a plate of fruit and a glass of juice. We did eat dinner at the restaurant on our first day and the food was good but overpriced for what it was.
We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend."
"Nice staff, easy check-in and check-out process, and the included breakfast was very tasty. The staff manning the breakfast were also very attentive and did a great job."
"This is one of our favorite stops on our trip when we fly into the Liberia airport! Such friendly people and beautiful grounds and access to waterfalls and a free breakfast! We love this hotel and start every vacation in Costa Rica with it!"
