Great value for the money and about the best you’ll get in Costa Rica in this general area. It’s not the Westin, but that’s not the price point we were looking for. Everyone extremely friendly and helpful and the all inclusive is good food for the money.

Great resort for families. Beach was beautiful and the staff was very friendly. Pool was perfect for my kids, with three different shallow areas where they could play. The resort yacht tour was amazing and easily a highlight of the stay. We did the morning snorkel to Honeymoon Beach and it felt like a private tour. Easily accessible to see wildlife in nearby places.
