    I had to leave.

    I loved the location. I was a 2 minute drive from my sister that I was visiting. I loved the location. Literally, everything in Cahuita was in walking distance. I loved the ocean view and how close other beaches were. The breakfast was spectacular. I love how the staff helped me with my understanding of Spanish. I liked the staff kindness. Did I say I liked the breakfast. Lol 😆 I liked that I could get my laundry done.

    Rooms are sterile and not possible to swim due to corals. Mixed staff, some very friendly, others not so motivated. No hair dryer to borrow from reception. No restaurant or bar service. You can have something delivered. Did not really feel like a hotel. More like a serviced apartment. Air conditioning made an intermittent noise every 4-5 seconds. Not possible to sleep without earplugs.

    Location close to Cahuita and restaurants. Very clean. Nice garden and view to the ocean. Pool was cleaned every day.

    I had a great stay at this hotel, but there are a few things that could be improved for a better experience. In the suite with the private ocean view, the area has a thin curtain over the glass window, which doesn’t provide enough privacy since the property is right on the street. A thicker blackout curtain is definitely needed in that area. Additionally, all the lights in the bedroom were white, which didn’t create a warm or cozy atmosphere. While the bedroom itself was excellent, I ended up purchasing a warm lightbulb for one of the lamps to make it feel more inviting. There were also two lamps in the room that required batteries, but no one informed me of this, so I had to ask for assistance. Aside from these minor inconveniences, the hotel was great overall. A few small adjustments could make the stay even more comfortable.

    Great location and all people work there are helpful.

    No water the morning of check out. Unable to shower, use toilets or fill out water bottles. Staff made no effort to help. They said they could sell us a bottle of water. For the price of the room maybe they could have given us each a bottle of water!

    Nice view of ocean. Front and back doors to room with porch and chairs. Walkable to town. Parking off site but seemed secure.

    Clean and Comfortable. Cahuita's best.

    Our unit had a kitchen. We quickly learned that we had to keep all food in the refrigerator if we didn't want to get invaded by ants (this is rural Costa Rica, after all), but once we did that we were good. There is a gigantic bath tub in the living/bedroom area. This was a total waste of space, a couple of comfortable chairs or a little sofa and a small table would be much more useful. The drains in the kitchen and bathroom do not have U-bends, so sewer gas can come up into the room. We kept the bathroom door closed and kept the stopper in the kitchen sink and these actions kept the place livable.

    We had room 13, one of the two larger rooms above the breakfast area. The room was spotlessly clean, people are sweeping all the time. It's very pleasant to sit on the back balcony and listen to the ocean while reading a book or having a cocktail. It's an easy walk to town. There's a very good restaurant across the street and a little shack 100 meters down the road serves the BEST coffee in Costa Rica. The staff is responsive and friendly. When the hotel occupancy is low, the excellent breakfast is made to order; when there are more guests, it's a buffet, not nearly as good. This is the best place to stay in Cahuita.

    The only thing we didn't like was having to leave so soon. Looking forward to our next time there.

    From our point of arrival we were greeted like family and treated as such throughout the entire stay. The staff was very helpful to us especially my mom they always made sure she had everything she needed to make her stay fit for a Queen . Among the beautiful views and scenery , my mom found the daughter she never had. Lilly , was the most amazing Hostess. Thank you so much for making my mom's first trip to Cahuita Costa Rica as wonderful as you are ! We will be back next year with even more family. Pura Vida !!!

    The breakfast wasn't very impressive. And the pool bar was not open.

    Perfect location to sit out on the balcony and watch the ocean waves. It is on the beach, but not a walkable beach. The pool is also very nice.

    My favourite dress got ruined in the wash. If you need laundry washing do it before or after your stay. Otherwise I would have given a 10. Expensive mistake.

    Room was fantastic. Room 14. Great ocean views, very comfortable, and practical. Enjoyed breakfast. Service was great. All staff were really nice. Reception staff particularly excellent, super helpful. Location was perfect.
