I had an incredible stay at the hotel. The rooms were not only comfortable but of high quality, and we even got the two connecting rooms we requested with a king and two queen beds. The service was amazing, extremely helpful, professional, and the staff had a great command of English which made communication easy. The location was stunning, with beautiful gardens to admire and explore. The dining experience was a mix of excellent and okay, but the overall atmosphere made me feel like I was in the heart of the Costa Rican rainforest.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly spacious, clean, and had a lovely bathroom with a shower and tub. The breakfast included was excellent, and the overall cleanliness and size of the room impressed me. However, the only downside was that the view from the window could get a little clouded at times.
The senator suite I stayed in was amazing, perfect, super clean, and equipped with modern amenities. I loved the location as it was a bit away from the main hotel but not too far to walk to the restaurant. The service was friendly, kind, and accommodating.
