"This property was definitely off the beaten path. It was not well lit at night which made it almost scary to walk to dinner. They did not have many dining options and the menu is limited and redundant. "

"Friendly staff, good food and great views from.our room in a quite secluded area of Tempisque. Basking iguanas in the trees and birds singing all around."

"Comfortable, convenient, great service & breakfast. It is outdated yes, but it is clean. The proximity to the beach, shops, restaurants (Sherrif - good, cheap & great service) is perfect if you are not looking for quietness. It is located in the heart of Sámara (which is quite small of a town). Don’t blame them if it gets noisy at night.
We are a couple on vacation that would recommend the hotel."

"Hung up in unbelievable traffic in Santa Cruz, I was not able to check into the hotel until 7 AM the next day when they reopened. So I don't have the overnight experience one expects.
That said, the room was very clean, the shower had good hot water, and I did get a morning nap on the bed. Fort7nately, it is off the road a bit. But noise carries and young Costa Ricans love their motorcycles. So if you are super noise sensitive that might bother you, but the traffic is really light on that...

"Beautiful boutique hotel. Loved the pool and the beach. It wasn’t busy in early November. The bar services excellent cocktails with quality alcohol. Friendly staff. Loved the certified yoga instructor. More 8am classes would be awesome
Cons-AC not working in gym. Increasing size of gym would be an asset. Terrible bathroom, designs a solid door would help. "
"Do not be discouraged by the road to Rancho Humo, what lies at the end turned out to be a real gem.
This property is nestled up against the central wetlands of Nicoya peninsula on the shore of the Tempisque river and is a definitive location for birdwatchers from all over. My wife and I are not birdwatchers but booked this based on its remote location and its high marks from other reviews. We also booked in offseason so fortunately for us we were the only guests and the staff was so great to make us feel welcome and taken care of all week.
Be sure to let Kenneth make you feel welcome and attend to whatever your needs are and listen to his vast knowledge about the property and it’s animal inhabitants while on the safari tour. Also, Chef Kenya is an absolute magician in the kitchen so don’t miss her daily culinary offerings.
Will absolutely return one day, maybe not during the rainy season though… 😁"
"This place was the highlight of our trip! The room was spacious and clean. The property grounds were immaculate and gorgeous! The staff was helpful and friendly and the food was delicious! The pool overlooking the sea was awesome! Samara is a short drive away and the beach is within walking distance from the property! We highly recommend this place! "
