We had just come from the Caribbean side of Costa Rica and stayed at aWà Boutique Hotel. Basically the same price but on a whole different level. (You can read my review on it). I say this only as a comparison of boutique hotels in the same county. Upon arrival, we barely received a “buenos dias to Tiki”, very flat and cold. Once shown the room it was lovely with an amazing view of jungle and ocean. Possibly my mistake in reading about the hotel but basically you need to drive down to the main road and then select a beach up the road if you want to swim as the beach at the bottom of the drive is rocky and not conducive to swimming. There are 2 lounge chairs and an umbrella you can rent at the swimming beach for $15 US. I suppose you could walk down a rather steep rocky road from the hotel to the non swimming beach but not that close and then in the heat and humidity, need to trek back up. Upside, lots of birding from the smallish pool that due to its size made a great, somewhat intimate social spot, where all the guests having similar interest would mingle and tell stories of their outings of the day. Although, there were a couple of times when there weren’t enough lounge chair for all the guest unfortunately. In general, I would say the property felt “tired” such as the missing tiles in the pool, worn out flusher on the toilet, burned out light on patio, sticky sliding door to balcony as well as the staff seemingly unhappy to be working there. Based on the website and just coming from the other hotel, my expectations may have been set too high…
