Nature-Focused Relaxation

Exploring the park surrounding the hotel was a good experience. It served as a great preview of the nearby Corcovado National Park, filled with wildlife including monkeys and toucans.

My stay at the resort was quite an adventure! The location is absolutely stunning with its own trails and beautiful waterfalls. The rooms were comfortable but could use a bit of updating. The service was friendly, but at times it felt a bit unorganized. Dining was a bit of a mixed bag, as the breakfast options were limited. Overall, it’s a unique experience but there are some areas that need attention.

I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, where the tranquil surroundings were complemented by beautiful self-guided trails and stunning waterfalls nearby. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. On the downside, while the staff was friendly, there were some organizational hiccups, and the dining experience fell short of expectations. Overall, it remains a good value for money but has room for improvements in service and dining.
