It’s a beautiful hotel. Really lovely. The staff are focussed customer service and are all very friendly. The food is excellent. They’re located by a noisy highway but have done everything they can to make up for it. We’d stay there again.

We liked the hotel overall. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was limited but really good. The pool is perfect. Regarding the hotel’s location it’s both good and bad. Good because it’s easy to get to Uvita but bad because of the noise coming from the highway.

The restaurant staff were extremely friendly and helpful with what my kids needed. My son was not feeling well and they were able to get the food he needed. The property needs some changes like doors still using key based systems (it was way too old and hard to operate), bathroom tiles, fixture etc were quite old.

Everything about this property was great- it was beautiful and clean and had a unique design and quality customer service. We did have a very strange/negative experience upon checkout however. The hotel charged us $20 upon checkout because a clean wash cloth was accidentally brushed into the trash can as we were leaving. This strange charge was enforced with very little explanation or prior notification. This experience just as we were leaving left us with a negative impression of what was otherwise a very lovely stay.

Great little boutique hotel outside Dominical

We originally found the restaurant La Palapa during our first trip to Costa Rica and fell in love with it. We have been "saying" we wanted to stay at the hotel for a few years. This finally happened for our 5th anniversary and again a week later with friends. It won't be our last. The rooms are comfortable, although the beds are a little on the stiff side. And note, the king room reserved was only a queen. But for a couple of nights, it was doable. The rooms are roomy, the showers are hot, and the amenities are good. Each room has a small TV, a safe, and even a cooler to take out by the pool. The staff is beyond accommodating, friendly, and helpful! Did I already say the restaurant is gluten-free and amazing? The veggies come from their organic garden, and their ingredients are fresh. We have yet to have a bad meal. Breakfast is included in the morning. We now live in Costa Rica, and there are many great places to stay. Hotel Cuna del Angel is at the top of our list—a great little boutique hotel outside Dominical.
