"Parkings easy and close by. Location cannot be beat. Area around the hotel is nice and there are restaurants bars and shops. Beach is literally across the street and the national park entrance is around the corner. Theres a restaurant attached the the hotel with yummy food. View from the first floor is next to nonexistent but who cares walk across the street if you want to see the beach. AC which is a nice respite after a hike or a swim. No fridge which is less than ideal but so many other parts of the hotel make up for any lack of view or fridge. Staff are nice enough and helped me with the SINAC website. "

"Can’t beat this view! Worth getting off the beaten path to stay at this wonderful hotel."

"The breakfast was made to order and could include bacon every day if you want it which is unusual in Costa Rica. Decent quality. We found the food at dinner to be mediocre to poor. We had a very bad experience ordering churrasco the meat was mostly inedible. Food prices are very high at GAIA, but there are good local restaurants. In some way to serve with remarkable good as we were assigned a concierge who we could contact anytime by texting on WhatsApp and that was very nice. Also, the owners introduced himself and were very friendly and potentially helpful. The room was nice but so expensive that I could not call it a good value."

"Amazing resort ! "

"Its uniqueness and friendly staff!"

"Overall, the property was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. The wildlife was a highlight of the stay. We saw monkeys, a sloth, lizards and many different types of birds, which made the experience feel especially unique. The hotel itself was peaceful and never felt overly crowded, which was a major plus. The main drawback was the service, which was consistently slow throughout the stay. From check-in to being seated and served at lunch and dinner, there were noticeable delays. At the wet bar, I waited about 15 minutes before the bartender was able to take my order. It did not seem to be a reflection of the staff themselves, but rather that the property appeared understaffed, especially at the restaurants and bars. Checkout was similar, with only one person at the front desk managing both phone calls and guest departures. The food and drinks were very good and clearly well prepared, though they felt overpriced given the level of service. Overall, the property itself was lovely and the setting was memorable, but the staffing and service experience did not quite match the price point. Note: If you plan to drive, be extremely careful as there were a lot of cars parked on the side of the road by beach goers, making it narrow and dangerous with oncoming vehicles."
