Best place. We had such a good time. A lot of animals in the hotel, and the staff is so nice. They have their own guide for night tours, which is a big recommendation!

Nice pool, staff friendly and also convenient and pro active. I really enjoy my room, was big, clean and with a nice balcony with a view on the jungle. Parking is easy and close to everything. Good breakfast too. Only little details, it has no yoga or meditation class as they say on the website. It’s sad, because the yoga studio is really beautiful.

Loved it. Clean, nice pools and they fix everything you ask for (transport, guides, yoga etc). Yoga classes was included in our stay. If we are going back to Costa Rica, we would come back here as well. Recommend!

If your looking for a quiet peaceful stay, this hotel is for you. There are little amenities and no TVs. Every morning there is guided meditation at 0730 jrs and different classes such as yoga.

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were cleaned regularly and spotless and the staff friendly, but what really stood out was the abundant nature. I saw more wildlife here than on all of the nature tours I went on put together. I saw 3 different types of monkey, iguanas and lots of birds including the striking fiery-billed toucan.

Breakfast was delicious, room stayed cool, grounds were beautiful and nice view of the forest. I would add ramps for luggage convenience and more parking. Otherwise amazing!

Great staff, amazing hotel - wish it was up-kept and cleaned better and definitely has the potential. Complimentary breakfast is very limited - no substitutes, unless paid out of pocket (which seemed unfair, as I don't eat bacon/pork). Overall, enjoyed our stay and the Alma Vida Hotel culcture.

4/10 Fair

We initially had to move rooms as there was such a large gap between the door and the outside that there were lots of ants and crickets in the room. The rooms are also very small and there was no hair dryer or hand towel. There was a generator on the roof of our room so it was also very noisy. The staff were friendly and very helpful and the pool was nice. Breakfast was also good especially if you need dairy or gluten free options.

Location was great and the staff was really friendly but the bathrooms were quite moldy and they just have tried to cover it in paint which hasn't worked.

The property is BEAUTIFUL. Friendly staff. For the basic rate you have your own private cottage. Great price. Centrally located to most attractions. There are large gaps in the doors and windows and you are in a tropical setting, so creepy crawlers can get in. It is important to know there are no TVs in these rooms and no refrigerators, but they were able to upgrade me to have same for an additional fee. Free classes (yoga, etc) you can register for and free breakfast at restaurant in hotel...not bad! Also has vegan options.

Stayed 2 nights, great location 15-20 walk to the beach but all downhill no clear side walk a bit dangerous with traffic not recommended in the dark. Walking back up hill is doable but can also taxi uber or bus . Restaurants close by went to YOLO great salad Live music .also went to Agua Azul had the panko Seared tuna highly recommend it was amazing. Room is decent no safe which I don’t like. Pool is nice and warm. Breakfast was good as well fresh made to order. Staff are very nice and very helpful. I would stay again and recommend.
