The staff was amazing! They had a culture of service and exceeding expectations. When checking in, I wandered over to the concierge desk jokingly stating that “I wanted to see a sloth” The young lady suggested that they were most active in the morning by the main pool. Shortly after checking into our room I received a call from the same lady saying they know where there is one and offered to pick us up in the room and take us there. They did just that. What a great experience. A great resort, with great rooms and excellent service. Mitch and Cindi

The hotel is amazing everything from the maintenance to the overall experience is truly 5 star.
The room attendant who cleaned my room did a fantastic job. My room was always well cleaned and organized.
However, I found the staff behavior a bit odd. No matter where I went in the hotel, they constantly asked me where I was from. It seemed that once they realized I was local, from Costa Rica, the quality of customer service declined. They appeared to treat international guests better than locals. That’s my only concern, but aside from that, the hotel and its amenities are excellent.

It was even more amazing than our already high expectations. Our room view was worth the price alone. The restaurant is great, pool and new series of hot spring tubs in the natural gardens is a destination in itself. It was honestly perfect.

It was a great experience. From the location, the view to the employees. It was just an amazing and positive experience. Every single one of the staff in the restaurants, lobby, drivers, everyone was super nice and friendly. The food was delicious, the view to the volcano and all the nature around us was just breathtaking. The only negative was that the mattresses were a too firm for us and the restaurant prices were a bit too high. But I do understand that it is a 4 stars a La Carte restaurant. I would definitely recommend this resort and I will definitely come back to visit.

Beautiful grounds, lovely amenities. Lots of opportunities to spot local animals. There was a large cockroach in our bathrooms, but we excepted bugs. Bring old sneakers because we encountered deep mud puddles on our excursions. Overall a great hotel and delicious restaurants.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR FAMILIES AND GROUPS. What an amazing place. Upon arrival the staff greeted us like we were repeat customers. They quickly checked us in and even met my request to have our rooms near the restaurant. the rooms are actually small cabins with spectacular views of the volcano and native fauna. The buffet breakfast was amazing and had great variety, the lunch and dinners were also great. The resort has a great pool area with swim up bar and adjoining hot spring. the areas and rooms were always kept very clean by the staff. The resort is large and they have golf carts and buses to ferry you around the complex, or like many , you can walk. the location is 5 minutes from the town and near many tasty restaurants, and local sodas too.

Reception staff did an outstanding job of helping to arrange transportation for our trip from the airport, any trip into town, as well as other excursions. Transportation staff (especially Freddy!) were friendly and hospitable. The grounds were beautiful and rooms were very clean and comfortable. We hope to come back again some day!
