This is a second tome we stayed at the hotel. First time was four years ago and it was quiet boutique hotel, now it's in process of expansion. We love the place and would come back. I included the negative responce about it to inform, not to deter. The highlights: You can walk to the river, it's a short hike, and swim in there, very beautiful spot to take photos. You can see wild life while on property, we saw toucans, sloths, monkeys, red eyed frogs, etc. Liked: Beautiful hotel all around, grounds, rooms, pool, etc. Very attentive service. Everyone is extremely polite and helpful, very sweet. The restaurant prepared good food, we stayed 3 nights and while breakfast had limited variety it was enough to choose from. Had we stayed longer, it whould feel boring. Dinners were very good. They have excelent pool with three jacuzzi and poolside bar, it's warm and comfortable, so that you can spend the whole day in it if you like. Disliked: CONSTRUCTION. The hotel is going through expansion and building more facilities and villas. There is constant banging and havy tools screeching sound. It's heard by the pool, by the restaurant and the rooms. There is no quiet space at all. in addition, the construction is too close to the red eyed frogs habitat, tge small frog pond. I wish they would create another safe pond for frogs, safly relocate them and then build around existing frog pond. It was very sad to see this change from four years ago.

This place was beautiful. The rooms are lovely and huge. There's the best staff. Katherine, Josue, Ismael and Jennifer were so wonderful. There's nothing they won't do to make you happy. The pool and grounds are beautiful. The food has many breakfast and dinner selections and lunch can be out by the pool or in the dining room. There are toucans and monkeys and sloth there. The monkeys visited one day at breakfast they kept popping their head down to say hello.
