Room was comfortable and spacious. Resort was far enough away from most everyone else but close enough to be convenient to the next village. It was a LONG drive from the airport.

This property has always been a favorite place for me to visit. The staff is excellent and I was thrilled where the bartender remembered my name, which is difficult to pronounce. I felt relaxed and safe. I liked the space that my suits offered at the Brisas. My only regreet is that there was no fridge. However, this did not prevent me from returning on my next trip to Puerto Viejo.

It was an overall great stay. The beach is so close in comparison to huge resorts. The food is great but unfortunately the kitchen does close early. You need to find places to eat or stock up on snacks if it’s after 9:00. The staff is great!!!!! Make sure to check if your room has air conditioning. Ours did not have one but our stay was in October which is considered their winter. It rained at night which helped keep the room cool. I can’t imagine staying there without an air conditioner in the summer time. It would truly be miserable. Other than that it is a great place with a wonderful staff! I will definitely go back.

The place was beautiful and relaxing and the staff were very nice and friendly. What I didn't like was how some of the rooms had AC and a TV and others didn't and there was no form of entertainment. The food was excellent but I felt there should be more than one meal included in your stay not just breakfast and if breakfast was the only meal included you should not have to pay extra for more.

Pros: conveniently located beach front, staff are great, the landscaping is really beautiful Cons: your experience will vary widely depending on which room you are in. We stayed in 3 areas: ocean room, villa 2, and the las brisas apartment down the beach from the main property. The ocean room gets very hot--it does not have AC and is like a sauna during the day. The villa was lovely--you have a private pool, the space includes a kitchen and great AC. The las brisas apartment was terrible--it was moldy, dingy, and has a bad sewer smell. Out of all the rooms, the las brisas apt was the very worst--we didn't actually book it, the hotel put us there after they gave the room we actually booked away to someone else.

We are a retired couple. Banana Azul’s staff couldn’t have been more accommodating throughout our stay. On a daily basis many staff members restated their desire to provide whatever we desired and to make our stay even more enjoyable. Morning coffee set up just outside our cottage & a full complimentary breakfast of choices was fantastic. They even offer laundry services. We loved our visit and hope to return.

Great location right on the beach. Not Adults only! They were many young children during our stay which was a bit disappointing. Prices also seemed a bit high for food and drinks for what you got. We were better off eating out. Overall a nice stay a great beach.

This place was amazing.. the pictures Travelocity has doesnt do the place justice. The staff soooo friendly they go abvoe and beyond..not just one or two but all the staff. They have a turtle pond to see turtles and fish as well as frogs. Their cat oreo is so sweet and a fun addition for guests. We were able to see about 4 sloths on the property. The maintenence staff always kept an eye and then showed the guests where they were making the experience really nice. Not one problem w this place.. beautiful lovely, chill, fun things to see, great suggestions of what to do from staff.. we really loved this place and had a great experience. They furthermore provided a refreshing welcome drink upon arrival and a token for another drink when we were ready.
