Excellent staff, great boutique hotel atmosphere! We stayed here at the beginning and end of our trip to Costa Rica and loved it. Perfect place for couples, families, or anyone wanting a relaxed but still very nice, quality hotel experience right on the beach in Playa Hermosa. Staff is so helpful and friendly and this truly was the nicest hotel right on the beach in Playa Hermosa. Can’t wait to return!

The location was on a quiet beach. The hotel was very pleasant. Our room was on the ground floor. The room is situated so that there was a direct view into the room. Therefore we kept our curtains drawn most of the time. Therefore if I retuned I might ask for a second floor room. Service was very good. Our room was well appointed.
Great option to unwind with family in a stunning, quiet location on the beach. Great food! It’s a smaller area with not a huge town or night life which was fine for us for one or two nights. Nice beach to stroll along to other hotels and condos.
the hotel was right on the beach and our room was huge with a sitting room and very very clean and updated nicely. The staff was incredibly accommodating and delightful, Right on the beach in a great location.
This hotel ticked almost all the boxes. My only complaint was the size of the pool. For those who don’t want to swim in the sea, the pool is small and designed more for children than for adults who want to go swimming. But other than that, the hotel is ideal. It’s situated on a long sandy beach with a calm sea and beautiful view. Beach loungers and towels are provided for guests.
Our junior suite was really nice. Both the bedroom and the living room were very spacious and comfortable. Each had its own TV and there were plenty of plugs around for mobile working wherever we wanted to sit.
The ground floor restaurant and upstairs bar (with pool table) are located to make the most of the view. Happy hour (2 for 1) is from 5-7pm and there is a good choice of wines and cocktails. The restaurant/bar menu has a wide choice of dishes and the food is good (not haute cuisine, but very fresh and nicely cooked). The chef is happy to accommodate (reasonable) special requests. The breakfast – ordered from the menu as there is no buffet - is varied, copious and very tasty.
The hotel is quite far out, so you need a car to go anywhere. However, the local minimart is within walking distance if you’ve forgotten your flip-flops or sunglasses, or just want a bottle of wine to drink in the room.
A plus for the kids is the wildlife. What can be more exciting than sitting in the pool and watching the monkeys or exotic birds in the surrounding trees?
A great place to stay.
We spent a wonderful seven nights at this hotel following a two week tour of Costa Rica and loved the relaxed atmosphere and closeness to the beach. We were very late arriving at the hotel, due to a serious accident en-route, but the staff kept the restaurant open until we arrived to enable us to have dinner. On arrival we were upgraded to a Garden Suite, which was a great surprise. It was lovely, while on the sunbeds on the beach, to watch the birds and other wildlife.
The staff were all wonderful, but special thanks to Carlos Gatto in particular, also Diego and Yorsi Quesada. The breakfast girls (Shirley and Andrea) were also excellent and looked after us very well. We both had massages booked through the hotel and they were very good.
