This place was wonderful! This place had a restaurant, a bridge of some historic background, a river, etc. This place was a 10 out of 10 near Jaco, Costa Rica. The staff was amazing and friendly. Near a lot of things to see and discover if you are a tourist! One of the best stays in Costa Rica for the price!

What a wonderful place to spend a week. Come eat some great food, spend time in the many pools they have or take part in a tour of the vast wildlife and forest reserve. All inclusive option was a plus!

This hotel is such a gem! Great value for the price. We stayed with our two young children (6 and 8 years old). It is conveniently located with plenty of parking. Absolutely loved the grounds and walking to breakfast each morning and taking a dip in the pool every afternoon. Would love to stay here again.

It’s a nice natural setting, but the property is old and run down, needs upgrade. The road to the hotel is bumpy and dusty. No good beaches around. The receptionist lady was busy talking to a colleague for too long when we checked in and we had remind her that we were waiting for her service.

The property is very nice and well worth the price. However, all-inclusive should encompass any drink the customer wants, not ones off a certain menu. Also, most all-inclusives are 24-7. I didn’t mind quiet time from 10-6. However, some guests were rude and didn’t care about the rules. In general, a very nice place to stay but need more variety of food.

Picturesque lodgings surrounded by the rainforest. Wildlife roaming the property. Friendly staff. Excellent rooms. Small swimming pools but very clean. As in the rest of Costa Rica it is difficult to obtain transportation to nearby places on your own if you are not on a tour. Overall we had a wonderful stay

Fabulous place. Very clean. Staff very courteous and helpful. Only drawback open air dining, while beautiful and clean draws lots of flies and other insects. Fans turned on would have helped. Butterflies and poison dart frogs, iguanas and pretty birds. Loved it. Very worth the price.

We stayed in the treehouse for one night. The whole resort was way over the top. Friendly staff, awesome grounds and good food. We saw so many birds on the property, it was amazing. You drive off the highway, so you are in the jungle. I would highly recommend a stay here.
