Loved it!
Such a beautiful gem of a place! So close to the beach and restaurants! The pool was clean and we could view it from our room. Breakfast served in our room was a treat! The manager and staff were all very kind. We would both highly recommend this sweet spot!

The property was lovely with a nice, clean pool and lush vegetation. The hotel manager was always extremely helpful as a resource and the daily breakfast was quite tasty. The rooms are well-appointed and the kitchen is most functional. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it, especially for the price.

Place decent although was with out A/C for almost an entire day then they moved me to another room.
Had a disagreement with mngr which made me uncomfortable because he literally called me a liar telling me he did not buy my “story” and threaten me with sending email to Expedia stating that I violated hotel rules.
Be more than happy to explain further if needed

Wonderful staff and very nice accommodations. A few minor repairs needed but nothing significant. Very close to the beach. Noisy due to construction of condominiums adjacent to the property. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice spot aside from noise from nearby hotel construction during the day. These are the kind of hotels Jaco needs more of.

For us it was a great location, close to the beach and to the main street with plenty of options for food, and shopping.
The staff were awesome and very professional.
The work site next door isnt ideal, it was noisy, but we got used to it.

This was a great experience, fom the moment we arrived till we left. Eric, the manager is super! He bent over backwards to accomodate us with any little request. This hotel compound is like a little communty. The food was excellent, the chef was a pleasure to be around. The swimming pool was always clean and cool
