About
A beachfront hotel a short walk (about seven minutes) from Jacó's center, with well-manicured grounds where iguanas, hummingbirds and even scarlet macaws turn up feet from your balcony. There's a pool, an on-site restaurant and 24-hour security. Rooms are on the basic, dated side and WiFi can be weak in them, but the quiet setting and wildlife keep guests coming back.

Be careful! I had some expensive items stolen from my vehicle in the parking lot. The proximity to the beach is good. The property is beautiful. The rooms were very basic and somewhat outdated.
It's been 10 years since I stayed there. It's a fantastic place !!!! I plan on staying there on my next trip. I like the quietness of it, yet walking distance on the beach to the hustle and bustle of Jaco. Nice, Clean and wonderful food.!!!!
Overall, I was very pleased with my stay. My first impression was that the owner makes sure he keeps his hotel well maintained. The exterior grounds are well manicured. The room was clean, and had the amenities you would expect for an average price room (approx. $100/night). I enjoyed cooling off in the pool and sitting on the private balcony in the evenings. I also agree with some of the other reviewers that the location is perfect. It is a little bit away from the town center, but well within walking distance to everything Jaco has to offer. The only recommendation I would make is to add some additional wifi antennas. The signal was quite weak in the room, and had to go to the balcony to stay connected.
