    The hotel was little with amiable staff and an exceptionally nice location right in front of the ocean. Location: the property was near watched the surfers and the affiliated restaurant and the waterfront. Cafe Bluegrass Cafe located 7 mi away was a nice surprise.

    The beachfront access is 💖 AMAZING! The room was spacious, and the bed was comfy, but the bathroom and furniture were a bit basic. It was a bummer about limited hangout spots.

    high pillows
    traffic noise

    Very nice beachfront access for lovely sunrises.

    I found the pillows unbearably high. The lack of suitable seating on the balcony made it challenging to relax and enjoy the view. Plus, the noise from traffic nearby was disruptive, particularly during the night.

    The beachfront access is unbeatable, making it easy to catch fine sunrises or relax with the sound of the waves nearby.

    The pillows were excessively high, making it challenging to find a comfortable sleeping position.

    The quad room was spacious and the bed was super comfy. My husband and son found the bed a bit too soft. The pool area looked great, but we didn't have time to use it. I really loved that the beach was just steps away!

    great access to beach and local attractions

    During my stay, I appreciated being just a short walk away from the vibrant Jaco Beach, where I enjoyed early morning strolls along the shore, as well as the proximity to Playa Hermosa-Punta Mala Wildlife Refuge with fine views and was perfect for afternoon explorations.

    Family with children magical beach escape

    We were blown away by the beachfront access. I mean, you step out and the ocean is right there. The huge patio was perfect for family hangouts.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but the quality and experience made it totally acceptable.

    We adored the beachfront access and the spacious room. The beach was fine, and nearby restaurants made dining easy. Chelsie was a gem, rescheduling our tour after our flight fiasco!

    But good heavens, was that bar next door loud! My morning coffee was more like a soundtrack to a rock concert!
