Hotel is definitely not a high star fancy hotel. Bathrooms were super outdated. The bar was always closed. No breakfast offered. Seemed like a lonely ghost hotel. Parking was a great and I felt safe most importantly in spite of NOT seeing any security.
the property was nice right by the beach nice pools no refrigerator. expedia has the property listed wrong it is actually beach break resort if you are trying to find it on waze or google maps
Don't Waste Your Money! I arrived early and was charged a fee for what I thought was an early check in fee then I still had to wait until the 2:00 check in time? When I finally got to the room there were no towels so I went to the desk and given 1 towel. The property was very noisy, No Bar as advertised on Expedia, No Restaurant, No Refrigerator or access to ice for cooler, there is very little within walking distance. Completely outdated rooms in poor condition, toilet handle falling off, shower door would not close, broken and missing tile in the bathroom.
The young lady at the front desk was very nice however unfortunately I had to leave the country a day early and was told she would discuss a 1 night refund with the manager and get back to me and I have yet to hear back from anyone? I recommend that you DO NOT stay at this property!
Great staff, clean rooms. Basic amenities.
Loved that a provate surf lesson is included in the stay!
The walls are super thin, you can hear all conversations in the neighboring rooms.
No coffee, breakfast but beach front restaurant located next door.
Staff was welcoming. Rooms had ample space. Unfortunately no toiletries compared to other hotels. Shower area was large yet shower head not great & water pressure nonexistent! Property area was lovely. Pool areas were upkept. Overall all barely met above average ratings.

The people were amazing. The Surf lessons that come with it made the whole stay worth it. My instructor Carlos was great to learn from. The hotel is nice but you can tell it needs a little bit touching up. Overall we loved the stay, we aren’t very picky
Enjoyed access to the beach and surfing. Walkalble to Jaco. Rooms are clean and good, staff is friendly and helpful, pools are enjoyable.

Quiet, hidden gem in busy Jaco.
This property is a hidden gem! It's a sprawling complex with several pools, and beautifully kept grounds. The rooms are a nice size with decent amenities. The hotel backs right onto the beach. You can easily walk to town and all the restaurants, shops and activities.
The only downside is that the structure has been allowed to deteriorate. Nothing is awful, but it feels like they haven't been doing building maintenance. If the staff would drop the lawnmowers and pick up a paintbrush one or two days a week, the place would be amazing.
The only reason for me to choose this hotel is because the location which has access to the beach, and can use the beach facilities, which is really nice. However, there is no wifi when I get to my room, wifi seems like only works around the reception cabin area which is really inconvenient, unless you have lots of raoming/cellular data.
It's an older property, beautiful area just needs to be updated. Rooms are old and beds are uncomfortable, pool areas are broken and rustic needs to be redone, no swimup bar and no restaurant on site, no coffee or tea.
Surfing was ok

Interesting place but not at all how it's described. The room, pool, and grounds were very nice, but the place has nothing at all to do with surfing. There are no lessons, and no surf boards to borrow (although if you walk 5 minutes south on the beach there is a terrific small business called Josi's that will rent them for $10 a day). It's almost like another resort took the place over but didn't replace the surfing branding, it's very odd. The beach is also pretty yucky, lots of trash and broken glass, but if you walk a few hundred feet south it's realy lovely. Other thing to know is that the restaurant is closed. This is the first place in Costa Rica we visted that didn't offer coffee in the morning which was kinda a bummer (we always like to wake up before the kids and enjoy a cup...) so you'll need to go to town for all your food and beverages. Overall it was just ok- if you're looking for a family surfing adventure this is not your place.

We stayed in Jaco one night (between La Fortuna and Manuel Antonio) because we had reservations for ATV, zip lining and canyoning outside of Jaco. This place was fine for one night, but we did not love it. The rooms feel very crowded (we had the family room for 5 of us) and small. The rooms are bare minimum at best. All restaurants and
The hotel is right on the beach and great if you want to learn surfing or watch waves coming in. The beach is just incredible. Hotel and room in general is minimalist. But location is right around Jaco beach town with ton of eating and other facilities. Parking was ample.
I picked this hotel based on location and although the room and bathroom was clean, the door was a push button lock and the back door had to sliding bolt locks you find in a toilet stall. After we got one too many hostile stares from patrons at the hotel, we decided to go to a different hotel.

Grounds were very well maintained, clean and beautiful. Great to be on the beach! But our room #8 was very dark, which made it look dirty and old. lack of restaurants close by. With kids, need to walk 15 mins to get to town. It rained everyday and we couldn’t get a cab to come in to the resort as the reception closes at 5pm. They should leave essential numbers for cabs and food deliveries at the front desk which would have been useful after 5pm.
