Big, clean rooms. Excellent breakfast and dinner menu. Friendly staff. It is a 2 minute walk up beach, this beach is quite rustic and a few more minutes to walk to more sandy beach. My only con was the outdoor grounds could have used a power wash and the pool sitting area was dirty and slimy.

This was an amazing property. Beautiful location and great service. Plenty of activities! Even on a rainy days, you can enjoy the sauna and hot springs. The swimming pool was enjoyable and we saw monkeys in the trees while we were at the pool and restaurant. The property is beautiful. I enjoyed walking everywhere, but there was also a shuttle service available. I definitely plan on going back again!

The hotel room and property were very beautiful. We stayed in the private room with a hot tub (all the way at the top). The staff at the front desk weren’t super welcoming, but the staff everywhere else were awesome! Especially Danny, he made us feel welcome and we hardly had to wait anytime we needed picked up. The food for breakfast and dinner was fantastic! Our big complaint was not being able to drive to our room and the hot springs were very stinky (not the case in other hot springs that we have gone to in the area - so definitely figure out the source of the hot springs when booking). Overall this was a nice place that seemed very family friendly. Beware if you go during high time as the transportation is definitely going to be an issue then.

Loved the property. Each bungalow was completely separate from the others on a hill, so there was no noise at night (except the howler monkeys). Very peaceful and the pool, hot springs, sauna and hiking trail were easy to access.

The property is majestic, the staff capable and always ready to assist. The staff that maintain the property are so kind and amazing at their jobs. They have passion for the property and are experts at what they do. This property is unique as you get to enjoy all the amenities while looking at monkeys, lizards, birds, panthers, etc. In their natural habitat.

Great place to relax in nature with thermal baths

The resort area is fantastic and the thermal baths and excursions great. Our only criticism would be the restaurant food was not up to the same level as the hotel and what it had to offer.
