We arrived for our honeymoon. The room is very small but nicely decorated. The hotel is in a great location with a nice atmosphere, but we were severely disappointed. The showerhead barely dripped water, and it didn’t work properly. Controlling the hot and cold water was a catastrophe, and we spent over an hour and a half on each shower. When someone was sent to fix it the next day, they adjusted the water pressure but said it’s impossible to have a medium temperature—it’s either very hot or very cold. We complained and were told we could switch rooms. After unpacking everything and sanitizing the room, we preferred not to move and requested compensation for one night. We received compensation, but we were told we couldn’t extend our stay and were asked to leave. We’ve never encountered such disgraceful service.

We booked a standard room, and it smelled like mold with a strong scent of bleach or cleaning products. There was mold growing on the floor and ceiling in the shower, and when it started raining in the evening, water began to drip from the ceiling in the bathroom, leaving the floor soaked. The receptionist was very unfriendly and unwilling to help. He also forgot to give us breakfast vouchers. Eventually, we were moved to a different room, but it wasn’t much better, though at least there was no water leakage. I’m sure you can find something better for this price.

You really can’t beat the location! We’ve stayed here twice now and it’s been wonderful both times. We love that it’s right on the beach and that the space is so nice — not just the rooms (we did the private one with a bathroom) but also the property and pool. They also offer fun things like yoga or dancing most days of the week. Highly recommend!

I give this place a 3 because I was robbed, very quickly and strategically may I add. I contacted the hostel and let them know as well, they still have to get back to me on their findings. Rooms were okay for the price. They offer a lot of cool things like surf classes and massages. Bar is overpriced but it feels like CR is expensive so the prices were consistent with the rest of Jaco. The pool and the beach (location) was the best part, that was very pretty!

Incredible value. It’s right on the beach. Two solid peaks to surf are just steps away from the bar. Gabriel and the bar staff are very friendly and fun to be around. The same can be said for the front desk staff and surfboard rental guys.
