The view, location and staff are very nice. The rooms are horrible. You can not turn on the fan independently of the lights and the AC works poorly. Finally we unscrewed the lightbulbs so we could have the fan on. Dogs were barking, the walls are so thin you could hear the TV next to us. The room is in... More

If you travel to Golfito to shop at the Duty Free Deposit, this is the best place to stay, very well located in front of the sea and near downtown Golfito in a safe environment. And if your travel for pleasure, this is better, because the hotel has its own marina. They have nice swimming pool and ussually there's only... More

This hotel received rave reviews from other folks, so we decided to go there for our short stay in Costa Rica. We were very disappointed. The rooms were quite large and very clean, but badly in need of repair and revitalizing. Lamps were broken, there was no control device for the AC (the only way to make it work), water... More

I can't think of a thing that could have made our stay any better. With the butterfly pools one for the kids one for adults overlooking the marina and the bay, the outstanding service and food at the bar and restaurant and the oversized rooms with windows front and back and a/c. Good water pressure in the shower with plenty... More

My husband had lost his reading glasses in Panama, and the owner of this hotel ( Claude)drove him to the market,escorted him to the right stall and bought him a pair of reading glasses. We were truly touched... More

The nicest couple in the world, with the BEST Shrimp Cocktail in the WORLD!!!. We drove from Pavones after surfing one day, just for the C.Shrimps. They let us swim and even gave us towels to dry off with, knowing we weren't staying there, just being the nicest people you'll ever meet, as in all of Costa Rica More
