This property gives a very nice overall impression. It is quite spacious and is surrounded by lovely gardens and a very nice pool area.
We are a family of 5 and de used to spend part of our Christmas vacation at the beach while in Costa Rica. The pool area is quiet and spacious enough for us to all enjoy our own little spot. The beach area is across the road from the complex. This particular beach is a bit too rough for us so we drive to Manuel Antonio, which is about 35 minutes away, and enjoyed our beach time there. The water is much calmer. It's warm and lovely. We went to both the national park which is beautiful and the public beach. We enjoyed them both but we are "beach people" so it's hard for us to be of another opinion.
As I said, overall the experience was nice, but there were some points that we didn't really like. One of them was that the person that was supposed to greet us never showed up. When we got to the guard at the complex entrance he didn't know who we were or which condo we were staying in and he didn't have the key.
Also, the unit is not kept too clean. The towels were in the dryer when we arrived and the rooms hadn't really been cleaned. The beds and pillows smelled "slept in" and though we know it's a unit with many visitors, it is nice to arrive to lean sheets and towels and freshly changed linens. I washed everything. The shower in the main bathroom leaked from the ceiling. But the most unpleasant thing was the living room sofa. It smelled HORRIBLE! We couldn't sit in it at all during our stay. That made for a little bit of discomfort for family sharing around the television or playing games. We only used the dining table and bar stools.
We hope that this review helps the owners freshen up their unt a bit before the next rental. It is quite peaceful and very pretty, but does need a little TLC in our opinion.
