Excellent service and accomodations.
The local host Denier was more than accommodating, I would return because of his management skills, you can tell he likes to run a happy and friendly, secure hotel. Excellent service, great food. The place is clean, quiet, right by the Gulf with a dock and a pool. At the moment The restaurant was closed but we did have the included breakfast. The room was comfortable, A/C, TV, wifi available too(since phone reception is a bit tricky), refrigerator (there also more basic options on other rooms). The street to get there from the main road is not paved, about 1km but not bad.There are parking spots in front of the location and one with a gate the he was kind enough to let us use. Covid measures are followed. You can spot a lot of birds, fish and even turtles from there. I would definitively return.

The location is right on the water with many sea view terraces to enjoy the stunning sunsets. The property is newly renovated. The pool is brand new. The hospitality of the hosts is immense. They went above and beyond to accommodate all my needs. Thank you so much!!!

cobro extra en comparacion pagina
Lo unico malo es que nos cobraron más de lo que decia la página, coloque la opción pagar en el hotel y no me parece que cobren más de lo que se pactó.

Muy buena opción en Golfito
Aunque el hotel no está en el centro de Golfito, está muy cerca, a solo 7 minutos en auto. Tiene vistas muy bonitas al golfo. Las habitacion muy limpia, se nota que se preocupan por eso. Buen desayuno además.

El hotel tiene muy bonitas habitaciones, tranquilas, con baño privado, aire acondicionado pero no tienen tv. La tv se encuentra en la sala de espera o living room. Ademas, las instalaciones son seguras, limpias, tranquilas y acogedoras. El desayuno es un servicio continental (basico de pan, huevos y tocino, cafe o jugo). Posee un muello que puede pasar el rato al lado del mar y ver muchos peces pequeños. En la parte superior hay una terraza donde se puede ver el atardecer y sentarse a disfrutar del sol y la vista. El atencion al cliente es buena, agradable y si necesitas algo te ayudan.

quizás fue por un mal entendido, pero llego al sitio, y estaba cerrado, ya que la reserva ya estaba pagado me dejaron hospedar. realmente un desastre, ya que ni agua hubo en la mañana en la habitación, me aclararon que no pueden servir desayuno ya que estaban aun cerrados (lo entiendo pero porque se cobra)
