I stayed in this hotel 5 days during Christmas 2024 and it was a nice experience. It is well located, next to the beaches and the city of Quepos. The environment is very nice : we saw a lot of birds and monkeys just next to our room ! We saw more animals in this hotel than in some parks ! The breakfast is good and the people working there are nice and helping. Each bedroom is a little house in the nature and it is very quiet. The only thing that can be improved is the bedroom decoration which needs a little refresh.

This place is falling apart. Trash in the parking lot and around the pool. The showers at the pool don’t work. The pathway and stairs towards the rooms are falling apart. The whole place needs a paintjob. Our room was also falling apart: The floortiles in our room were broken. The wooden doors are pourus and do not close properly. Some light were not working and our bathroom sink was leaking. No wifi jn the room. This hotel needs maintanance urgently. We spoke to the manager about this and he gave us our money back for the 1 of the 2 nights.

Adrian brings such a positive energy and drive to this hotel. You really pick up on it straight away. He running a good ship and the staff are clued up. Venus was very friendly, approachable and helpful as well. I liked my room, good bed, nice decor, the air con must be brand new it did the job for sure. The shower was really powerful. If you’re here for nature then it’s all around you staying here. I couldn’t get tickets for the park but Adrian managed to get me onto a tour. I recommend you get a tour guide I saw much more I face I wouldn’t have seen anything with the guide it was $60 including the ticket. Having said that you will see monkeys iguanas, birds daily at the hotel (they should have hakuna matata playing on repeat). Loved the pool, decent size and managed to top my British lobster tan on the loungers. Breakfast is pretty good. It’s smack bang in the middle of Quepos and Manuel Antonio (this part of the world is very hilly FYI). There’s buses and taxis are east to grab too. I had a great experience here. It is very well priced for what you get. I would recommend it.

I like the location because it is semmsurrounded by trees. You can spot monkeys and many birds. The place needs a lot of work or repairs. It is on the level of a higher level hostel. The staff are foreign volunteers who work to stay. Steps down to the rooms are not safe, as the concrete steps are falling apart. If you are staying here, request a room where you won't need to use the steps. Breakfast was a 3 stars.

Great location, good breakfast, nice pool. The rest of the location is in great need of maintenance. Door knob did not work (only the lock worked), pool umbrella and chair broken but not removed (nor replaced). Shower leaking on the floor. Sofas of the main lobby were dirty beyond 'cleanable' with broken legs. This place has seen better times.
