Amazing location. Really private right on the beach. Property was fantastic: comfortable, great bathrooms, hammocks and an outdoor grill if you’re so inclined. Alejandro couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. I had a wonderful stay and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Vey clean room, well maintained property. Lovely and exceptionally hospitable owners. Quiet,yet close to Tamarindo and the surrounding beaches- 10-14 min by car. Great breakfast- enjoyed the French crepes every morning, eggs, delicious coffee, homemade yogurt, fresh fruits, gallo pinto, almond cake and more. Nice pool, very refreshing for the hot weather.

The moment that you arrive a feeling of peace envelopes you. The pool and grounds are beautiful. Our room was tastefully decorated and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and the presentation was delightful. We loved it so much that we stayed another night. We had some problems with our car and the owner help us resolve them. They went above and beyond mere hosts to make everything perfect for our stay. The location is about a 10 minutre drive from the beach and city which contributed to the quiet and calm. Stay here and you will never want to leave.

Quaint place with cute cottage like rooms, super large pool and restaurant on site. Very convenient to beach and Tamarindo. We enjoyed our stay. Wonderfully priced. So much better than the all inclusive resort we came from.
