Great stay!
Great hotel, excellent service. Only downside was that the WiFi was down while we were there for one night. Beautiful surroundings. Walked the waterfall trails and it was a great workout.

The walking trails around the property were good. Lot of vegetation/greenery. The view from the dining area was excellent. Staff were courteous and friendly. Beds were not that comfortable could use updated beds in the room. Transportation to and from the resort is either expensive or not available to go see some places. Breakfast (included) was great.

This is a beautiful property. The grounds are spectacular. The rooms are full of colorful art. The room is spacious and comfortable. The spa is enjoyable and affordable. The restaurant is delicious. Every room has a gorgeous view. This is not an "American" hotel, so not luxurious on that scale, but it is definitely one of my favorite spots to stay whenever I'm in Costa Rica.
