Stayed here for one night before an early flight out of SJO. Property was a little bit run down but clean and the staff was very friendly. The restaurant was convenient and prices were very fair. Only complaint is that we could hear some road noise, and found lots of little critters in our room. Overall, great value for what we paid.

We reserved a room and spent 7 hours on the property before our midnight flight. We're so happy we did. We walked the trails on the property, enjoyed the pool, and had a lovely dinner in the restaurant. We thought the menu was great and reasonabley priced. It felt like a bonus vacation day.

Tropical garden near the airport

We chose this as our first night in Costa Rica due to proximity to the airport (20min drive) Lovely pool area and the food at the onsite restaurant is delicious and such good value. Staff were helpful and approachable We explored the onsite walking trails and the garden setting is lush and tropical.
