"The best part of this resort is its staff. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable. The location is perfect. It is so close to so many different things (right next to the Diamanté Eco Park). The scenery is breathtaking. I read some reviews prior to traveling and was a bit concerned about what we would find. The resort is a bit outdated. The rooms could definitely use a refresh. Any issues we had (mini fridge was not working, additional towels, etc) were taken care of...

"Very nice resort. Staff was very friendly, the grounds are clean, easy parking and the pools are great. We loved the rooms with the hammock. The things we weren't crazy about was we didnt realize the beach wasnt part of the resort and its public meaning locals can use the lounge chairs provided by the hotel and you cant sit there without being harassed by people trying to get you to buy a service (massages, boat tours etc). The other thing is I wish they offered some kind of resort entertainment...

"Great place to stay before or after air travel or whatever brings you to Liberia. Guanacaste can be very hot and traveling takes a lot out of you. It’s nice to stay somewhere so clean and comfortable and well air conditioned before continuing on for further travels. The hotel bar/restaurant is quite good. We ended up spending several hours there enjoying the food and drinks. "

"The swimming pool is huge, can easily accommodate scores of people. Rooms basic, but entirely sufficient for overnight stay. If staying longer, one might like to have a small fridge in the room, especially as no lunch services in the facility. (The two of us had a portable cooler that proved sufficent for out purposes during our one-week stay). Breakfast, dinner entirely satisfactory, the latter served 7-8 PM only. -- Price-to-room ration favourable"
