Like: Pool is very nice, clean and new. Disliked: Rude staff - they acted like they were annoyed every time we interacted with them. In addition, housekeeping staff entered our room THREE times while I was taking a shower and the bathroom door was open. As a woman, I felt very unsafe (the housekeeping staff were men sometimes). I asked for no service two times and they continued to enter. This combined with the lack of deadbolt locks on the doors was. not okay. There was also mold in our shower and all over the lounge chairs by the pool. Finally, the GRASSHOPPERS. They are SIX inches long and and there are hundreds in the hallways and all over. your door. When you try to move them away to enter your room, they all flight at directly at you. Also, many times there were over 30 in the elevator waiting for you as well. All night, you can't sleep because you hear other guests screaming and throwing their shoes at the grasshoppers. There are better places that are more friendly, less moldy, and without so many grasshoppers - choose another place!

I wish I could say our stay was pleasant, as the location and views are quite fantastic. Staff was always kind to us, but unfortunately the place is so packed with the giant grasshoppers (who attack) that we were gifted with 10 heart attacks each day trying to escape and fight them in the open air hallways. In addition, we had a very bad experience with the hotel’s tour agency who tried to scam us for double payment and even forged our signature to the receipt he gave trying to claim it was ours. As lovely as the place itself is, could not recommend to stay there.

It is overpriced for what you get. Hotel needs a major upgrade. It is old and outdated. Rooms is ok but bathrooms definitely needs an upgrade. They are old and not all clean looking. Lounging chairs are dirty , property just average. Spa is very mediocre and stuff is not welled trained. I do not recommend to get a facial. That said, stuff is super accommodating and helpful. Everyone was very polite, friendly and helpful. Stuff deserves a 5star. We had breakfast included it did the job. Coffee was the best thing at breakfast. Very smooth high quality.

The hotel was nice and comfortable however it is definitely NOT walkable to the beach. You have to take the shuttle. The shuttle only runs every hour until 9 pm which is huge disappointment. It also needs a sign of where the shuttle pickup in town, hard to find at first. It should run at least until 11 pm which would allow people to enjoy dinner and nightlife. The hotel does not offer any activities or nightlife, or entertainment. A very quiet hotel. The hotel should offer a pamphlet of activities, restaurants, nightlife, entertainment in town.

Wonderful Staff, Awful Jungle insects
We had a wonderful stay here. The staff are all super friendly and would bend over backwards to help with whatever we needed. The breakfast buffet could use a little variety from day to day. The pool and the views were beautiful. My only complaint would be about the Langostas ( Giant Grasshoppers) that would cover the doors and walkways outside the rooms. You had to be extremely cautious opening your door or they would get into your room and no one wants to sleep with a 4 inch flying grasshopper in their room. They would be in the elevators at night also. They would unexpectedly fly at you. They don't bite but they have barbs on their legs that can scratch you. I know we were in a jungle but it seems there should be some kind of fumigation that would keep them away.

Updates are needed and the breakfast is pretty terrible. Mildew on the pool chairs and little things break in the rooms, toilet roll holder and the sink handle. I got horrible food poisoning on day 2 here and I am still experiencing awful symptoms 6 days later. I never got the chance to eat outside of the hotel so I know it was from here. On the 2nd day of the severe food poisoning I went to the front desk and said how miserable I was and the response was, "Miserable? Really? Come on." I told him I was physically unwell and devastated the food poisoning was ruining my trip. The only compensation offered was to take off the current room charges, which was very little since we were too sick to enjoy anything. The view is spectacular, but not enough to make me stay here ever again.

Hotel was nice with a great view. They were transitioning the restaurant and bar service but the service with the new company seemed better just ironing out some new start details. Staff was kind and helpful. The shuttle to town was great and reliable. Not the hotels fault but be prepared for the large flying grasshoppers that come out and attach at night. Was a bit scary at the restaurant and getting to the room because they fly right at you. They are harmless but quite large

I love this hotel, we’ve been here several times. It’s definitely our go to when in Tamarindo. But, it sucks this time we went with our baby and they didn’t have high chairs available, so that was definitely an inconvenience. Everything else was wonderful.
