Nice pool, staff friendly and also convenient and pro active. I really enjoy my room, was big, clean and with a nice balcony with a view on the jungle. Parking is easy and close to everything. Good breakfast too. Only little details, it has no yoga or meditation class as they say on the website. It’s sad, because the yoga studio is really beautiful.

If your looking for a quiet peaceful stay, this hotel is for you. There are little amenities and no TVs. Every morning there is guided meditation at 0730 jrs and different classes such as yoga.

8/10 Very good

This is a great location, with several restaurants nearby. The staff were almost all helpful, but one or two seemed annoyed to be asked any questions. If you need ADA or have trouble with stairs, I wouldn’t recommend Alma Vida. The hotel has steps everywhere and is located in a hilly area. The onsite restaurant is fantastic (vegetarian fare) and the staff were awesome. The property lost power several times during our week long visit, but never more than an hour. We also lost water usage for about 12 hours. We used two of the pools several times. They were kept at a refreshing (cool not cold) temp, but are in need of some repairs. The exterior of the facility is well maintained, but the interiors feel a bit dated and could use better maintenance. On our last day we also discovered a large opening in a nook that led from our room to what appeared to be an older staircase to the room above. Had we found it earlier in our stay we likely would have asked for a different room, as it felt like easy access to our room.
Lower pool
Room 201. Spacious! Good A/C. Very firm beds.
The odd opening we discovered on our last day. Room 201.
