Highly recommend staying here. Very nice, clean, spacious units with kitchen. Outdoor patio area with table and chairs. Great location on a quiet residential street with security gates. I walked everywhere, it was about 10-15 minute walk to the main street and beach. Host was always available and offered excellent recommendations.

Beautiful and safe place which is maintained excellently by the friendly owners. Lovely pool surrounded by trees on which you can see beautiful birds of Costa Rica such as Macaw Parrots. Excellently located within walking distance of Main Jaco Strip.

Everything was great, but the bed was HARD! The grounds were beautiful. Close to main street. But not too close. Great experience!

The villa was beautiful well kept grounds and pool, many nearby clubs and food options!
This hotel is an oasis in itself. Lots of green space and tranquility only about a 15 minute walk from the hustle and bustle of Jaco Beach. The rooms are large and the pool is large to enjoy.

10 min spaziergang bis zur hauptstrasse. Dort gibt es alles was man braucht. Sehr belebt mit vielen bars. Wir fanden die mischung zwischen ruhigem ort zum wohnen und die möglichkeit weg zu gehen super.

Et tropisk paradis i Jaco
Elsket bassenget og hagen. Hotellet var veldig lite, noe som ga intim og hyggelig stemning. Eieren var kjempehyggelig og serviceminded døgnet rundt. Gangavstand til sentrum av Jaco og stranda. Også flere hyggelige restauranter i nabolaget rundt. Vil definitivt anbefale dette stedet å bo hvis man besøker byen.

Un lugar digno de visitar siempre
Es un lugar muy tranquilo para pasar en familia, muy silencioso, un lugar que he visitado ya muchas veces y volveré sin duda
Schöne Hotelanlage, welche teilweise ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen ist, jedoch sehr sauber war.
Schöne Zimmer und einen grossen Pool im Zentrum der Anlage.
This is very likely where we will stay when we are looking for our long term residences in Costa Rica. the hotel is quiet and and affordable. Small but workable kitchen. The owners are wonderful, very helpful and really great about giving good local information. Very close to Academia Tica for families who when to visit the school.
Quiet location although still close to the centre of Jaco. Room had a lovely patio sheltered from the sun. Didn't feel that the towels and sheets had to be changed every day. Staff very helpful and friendly.
This property was just perfect. Wish I stayed more than a day. Guy at checkin was very friendly and welcoming and very helpful in every way. The hotel is very safe, you can tell he takes care of it security wise. The property is super clean and a tropical lush. The pool is beautiful, clean and WARM! We swam at 8 pm and it was just beautiful. You can see the stars looking up. Its a quiet hotel even though being blocks away from the party scene. The room was a cute studio with a nice bed, not too hard not too soft. Bathroom was cute and clean. They dont have coffe in the room but you can go few feet away by the checkin area and the nice lady will hand u a fresh brewed coffee. The room has all you need to cook and eat with but we were there just for one night. Overall super happy and highly recommend. P.S. bring passport while traveling or picture of it as its the only approved ID. We weren’t aware so I am spreading the word just in case.
Well maintained, secured and safe place to stay with walkable distance to the beach and shops, a great option to be close to everything but yet far enough that you can relax in a quiet environment.
It’s a beautiful hotel in a residential area. Very clean and well-maintained and pleasantly quiet with spacious rooms.
It is 15 min walk from the main street where all restaurants and bars are, however you might end up walking more depends on your destination and this might be a bit uncomfortable on very hot days, besides that everything else was perfect.
I personally would go back to this hotel again if I liked Jaco but unfortunately I did not this town that much as it has a very dirty and ugly beach! but if you plan to go there I recommend staying at this nice hotel.
