The room was old and dated, though it did have a beautiful mountain view. Unfortunately, the staff seemed worn out and disengaged, and service felt indifferent throughout the stay. The resort did not feel like an authentic Costa Rica experience—more of a tourist trap with overpriced food and souvenirs. In contrast, Chachagua Rainforest Hotel was outstanding, offering genuine Costa Rican culture and excellent, welcoming staff.

Great "bang for your buck"! We were so happy with our big room, nice and clean. We spent one night but had two full days in the hot springs. The breakfast was delicious and the views to the volcano were stunning. We were very pleasantly surprised and would definitely stay again!

The room is very spacious and clean. The garden is gorgious. We saw more birds very closely than the tour. The foods in the restaurant are tasty with reasonable prices. The only improvement is to have more electricity outlests in the room.

Room is clean, toilet drains slow. Staff was courteous, but did not replenish our coffee. Wish AC would face a different direction which was facing the bed, it’s very uncomfortable to have the cold air blow straight on me, and cannot leave off during hot days. Breakfast was ok, not very many choices.
