Lots of maintenance needed
A nice house that has fallen into disrepair. No response to maintenance requests, couldn’t take a proper shower in the luxurious bathroom because the shower head blew apart from air & water pressure. Then had no water at all the following day due to a problem in a downstairs unit. This is hardly a resort as they call it. And access to the beach is incorrect and not honored by the management of that property.

Modern and clean
Was a very modern beautiful condo. The huge bathroom was my favorite part. The water was very hot. A place I could definitely stay longer than 2 nights in. I did think it was closer to the beach tho. We had to drive to a gated area to access the beach as it's protected by the government. No fault to the property owners, just would have liked a bit more clarity on the advertisement as I was excited for a quick beach access which this does not provide. Overall the bed was comfortable and it was a lovely place to stay. Wifi was not reliable but I think this was do to the lightening storm we had the night before.

I had an overall great experience at this place. I enjoyed the modern, spacious place to stay!
I appreciate the accommodations on providing fun activities. The service was great! Quick to respond on anything I needed. The private condo/villa is a perfect stay for anyone looking to stay at place with peace and tranquillity in a secluded area of nature and all its beauty. Great modern design and plenty of room to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature. Clean and safe place to stay!

Although we were rather disappointed that the cooking utensils and cookware were lacking in the kitchen and that the laundry was not in the unit but rather in the little house next door, I am still giving this a full excellent rating. The bedroom and bathroom were wonderfully appointed, and the living room comfortable tho spare. We loved sitting on the balcony listening to or watching the birds, including toucans, or the monkeys, howler and white face. The condo was clean and cooled nicely with the a/c. The location is excellent to Uvita, Ballena Marina Park or other destinations down the coast. It is also very reasonably priced.
