Appreciated our stay there, it was excellent. The exclusive hotel was fantastic. The breakfast was inclusive and reasonably good with plenty of outstanding food on offer. Outstandingly accommodating staff, who gave us awesome suggestions. The venue had indeed a marvellous location to the beach for the afternoon. The service was fantastic and the pool was nice

Why didn't I try this sooner?
This resort is perfect for a carefree getaway! With fine beach access and fantastic service, you can relax. The all-inclusive aspect is amazing. Food and drinks were always available. Despite some small hiccups, the well-maintained surroundings was great. I can't believe I waited so long to experience it!

Beautiful garden and great beach panorama; many animals to observe in the garden (iguanas, birds, howler monkeys), nice staff, good animation team.
Moderate choice of hot food; desserts too sugary; fruit was delicious; no light drinks in the mini-bar of the room; too many disposable dishes, snack bar and coffee; loud music at the pool.

Good, rich buffet, 3 times a day. Many leisure activities.
A little out of date.

I had an awesome time enjoying the beach and trying out the Japanese restaurant, which had a great show! The pool area was super relaxing and the beach access was just lovely. Just a heads up, getting a lounge chair can be a bit of a rush in the mornings! 🌴

The garden is beautiful! Swimming pool beautiful, plenty of sunbeds and you step right on the beach. Tamarindo is very touristy but also cosy. Service on terrace and breakfast room were very nice. The food is varied and there were cocktails or snacks in between.

Safe and modern hotel that has superfriendly staff on reception desk. Facilities are nice, and there's shuttle to-and-from the resort. They have main bar, safe parking and nice pool. It offers great location right by the upstairs restaurant, public areas, and the lovely beach.
Their breakfast is fairly basic, can be far better.

not worth the hassle
Honestly, this place was a bummer. Someone stole my shorts at the pool, and when I asked the staff for help, they just shrugged it off. The pool was clean, but everything else felt outdated and not well-kept. The bar drinks were super weak. If you're looking for a nice stay, look elsewhere.

It was just an appropriate option for a momentary pause in Tamarindo with reasonable price. We had a lovely folded towel swan with hibiscus on the bed for my birthday. Consider trying food options outside the resort for more variety.

missingWrote a review on 23 Jundrainage issue
The beach isn't suitable for swimming. With massive surfing waves, it's more about the view than actual enjoyment in the water. The bathroom in the superior room had a drainage issue, which could be annoying. The pool table only accepted quarters. Music played at the pool lacked variety, which detracted from the overall atmosphere.
