"This was my first time staying at a boutique hotel, and I have to say, it completely changed my perspective on travel. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I absolutely loved the experience. Unlike larger resorts, there were no overwhelming crowds, which made the stay feel much more private, relaxing, and personal.
The property itself is beautiful. The iguanas were everywhere and added so much character to the resort! The beach was gorgeous, and we were lucky enough to enjoy some truly spectacular sunsets though it was rainy season.
The food exceeded my expectations. Breakfast was incredible every morning, and dinner was always something to look forward to because there was a different theme each night. My favorite was the Costa Rican and Italian themed dinners, which were absolutely delicious and gave us a chance to experience local flavors.
One of the highlights of our stay was Alberto, one of the saloneros (waiters). He was friendly, attentive, hospitable, and genuinely made us feel welcome every day. His service stood out and truly elevated our experience. He was a shining example of hospitality and, honestly, provided a much warmer and more memorable experience than the receptionist lady.
We booked a room with a balcony, which was nice, but we ended up spending most of our time at the pool and beach. The swim-up bar was fantastic and became one of our favorite spots to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay."

"Not good service at all !!! For that kind of price it was a disaster. No water at the spa and gym. And very very rude manager on duty. Because top management was there that Sunday. I will never go back to that property."
"Overall, I had a really good time. The food was actually very good compared to some of the reviews that I saw that mentioned it was mediocre. The transportation staff were top-tier and their driving abilities are unmatched. The only thing is that I did call and asked for the in room snacks to be stocked, but that was never done during my time."

Luxury villa in Playa Panama, Guanacaste, Costa Rica.

"We had a great stay at Villa Durazno. We were 3 couples and had so much extra room. The view at this property is GORGEOUS and we loved watching the sunset in the evenings. This was our first time in Costa Rica so having David near was so awesome! David helped us plan everything and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The house is high up on a hill so a vehicle or a driver is a must, but once you get down the hill, the beaches and restaurants are near. Thank you for having us! "

"Wonderful! We hope to return. We had the best trip! This was our second time in Papagayo and I am already trying to figure out when we can return. The property was clean and nice and the location was perfect. We were able to rent a golf court and have tons of excellent options for dining and activities within minutes of the golf cart ride. "
