Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great location 25 min from the city. Surrounded by nature/jungle. The facilities were comfortable and the pools were good. The place is a little dated. Hot water is unpredictable in the shower. My balcony door with difficult to open. The staff is super helpful. If there are any issues they fix it right away. Place was noisy on weekends to due events. If you are there on the weekend, do not stay on the 3rd floor as you will hear the music. I barely heard the noise on the 6th floor. Very good breakfast buffet. Wonderful surroundings and comfortable stay. Good value for money.

We loved everything about the stay except for the noise on weekends due to events with excessively loud music that continued until at least 2 am. The base and drums rattled our room on the floor above the event venue, and even using earphones with noise cancellation could not help block that out. During the week we enjoyed the resort very much. We did have a few issues with our room upon arrival (no fridge, leaking shower head, shower temperature too cool), but all those issues were corrected immediately and happily by the friendly staff. It is a shame that soundproofing can’t be added, or that the musicians or DJs at the parties being held can’t reduce the volume of the drum and base.

Disappointed
Bird feeders not used or known about, low knowledge on animals/trails in area. Website advertises 3 walks however staff knew nothing of them and said can only do one with a guide when going to sloth center (included for free but not promoted or told how to do it upon check in). Unsure why you are not allowed to walk around without a guide?? Al a carter food service slow, only when one main arrived did we get told there was no other main as none of that dish. Dinner buffet a little limited. Breakfast buffet good. Very disappointed with use of 1 almost A3 paper sheet underneath every person who eats, staff should wipe tables more instead. Also saw no recycling facilities at hotel so doubt all this paper gets recycled. Tried to say no when i sat at a clear table to waitress putting paper down at my place, but they insisted. Removed paper immediately and put to other side of table so they could reuse it and it would stay clean, when i left my table at some point during meal they had put it back under my plate. Ridiculous. Dirty carpets throughout hotel saw staff trying to sweep them. 1 hour wait for staff to swap complimentary wine from red to white. Disappointed with stay. Very loud music one night with wedding in lobby despite being 4th floor room. Room not in best state, cracked picture, some of ceiling falling off. Holes in lamp shade. Another wouldnt stay stable. These details add up.

The cleanliness of every place we went in this resort and attention at the restaurant and front desk. Nice surroundings and exceptional service by the personnel. They really did their best to accommodate the guests which I can not say about the owners of the resort. Absolutely no maintenance. The rooms and furniture are in a very bad shape. the balcony railing had peeling off rust and the patio door was rolling with great resistance. My wife couldn't open it from outside. Mo hooks for shower towel. Very bad illumination of the room and bathroom.

Omar and Ricardo made a wonderful team to help us find all of the venues we wanted to visit. It's Lenny was a exceptionally good receptionist and the three of them made a great team to make our stay very comfortable and exciting. Sergio was very knowledgeable and passionate about the environment and all the little critters running around here and we thoroughly enjoyed his tour.

They're somehow bad at providing rooms
They're bad at the one function I expected of them: being a hotel. They didn't provide me access to my room. I was without a room, or any of my belongings for a full night at full fault of the hotel due a known issue on their end with the room door, and was not apologized to and still expected to pay full price. It ruined my trip. The next night they broke into my room so I could get my stuff, but this still wasted hours of my time as I waited on them, and my next room didn't have hot water and was absolutely freezing to a faulty air conditioner. Don't stay here. The "ecotours" are just walks around the golf course. Awful.
