This facility was very well built many years ago but is so so maintained. Everything is the bare minimum in terms of linens and bedding. The furniture in room and around the pool are cheap and flimsy. Staff is underwhelming. On the other hand, it has very nice beach frontage and a very large pool.

The hotel is relatively basic and dated, but it is a good place to stay near Limon if you don't want to be in the city.

Little oasis

What a gorgeous hotel! The pool was so perfect and clean and the food service was delicious. The rooms were so comfy and cozy and air conditioned!! I do wish I had more than a sheet to cover up with (unless I missed it). It’s right on the beach with no crowds whatsoever and the hotel is surrounded by lush greenery. And just 10min from limon airport. Highly recommend

I felt safe staying here. The property could use some updating, the water pressure was very low at the sink and shower. The room was cozy, the bathroom had plenty of space. The staff was great, very friendly and accommodating.

What a great surprise! Orbitz had to relocation us because the first hotel had a problem with our reservation. The hotel was right in the jungle with access to the beach a few feet away. Very clean and comfortable property without the craziness of Limon or Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica. Very Private and safe. Also, Julian and Javier (hotel staff) were very welcoming.
