    The serene atmosphere created by the tropical landscaping complemented perfect mornings with coffee on our porch. The almost private pool felt like a retreat, enhancing our experience .

    beach access

    The pool, while pleasant, could use more lounging options for those busy afternoons. The slight difficulty in accessing the beach may not suit everyone's preferences.

    outdoor swimming pool
    screened-in porch

    cozy, cozy, cozy

    We spent 5 nights in a Double Room with Balcony and Sea View, and it was perfect! The outdoor swimming pool seemed like our own oasis, with only a few guests sharing the experience. Each morning, we sipped coffee on our screened-in porch while the sunset painted the sky in the evening-a amazing backdrop to our getaway.

    totally recommend ❤️🌟

    Loved this hotel, had such great experience. Friendly venue, I stayed here with my girlfriend. The staff and people generally were nice. The whole room was extremely spacious with the fabulous sunset and coffee, for instance. The location couldn't be more unbeatable in a tropical jungle.

    game room
    onsite pool
    surfing point break
    breakfast options

    Staying here with the kids and a friend was awesome! The big game room kept everyone entertained, and the onsite pool was a favorite hangout spot. We enjoyed access to the gardens, too, for some relaxing family time after surfing at the excellent point break nearby.

    My wife says that the breakfast options could be improved.

    tropical vegetation
    screened-in porch
    private oasis
    rocky beach

    This secret part of Costa Rica is very much off the beaten path, but worth every mile down the beautiful west coast! The landscaping at La Ponderosa features intricate tropical vegetation. The upstairs room had a screened-in porch perfect for sipping coffee and enjoying fabulous sunsets. The pool was often like our private oasis with just a couple of guests sharing it.

    Rocky beach.

    A hidden gem for relaxation and fine views!

    We spent 5 nights in a Double Room with Balcony and Sea View, and it was perfect for us! The lush tropical landscaping created a tranquil atmosphere, and the screened-in porch was ideal for enjoying morning coffee and evening wine while watching the amazing sunsets. The pool often seemed like a private oasis, made our afternoons relaxing. I would have liked a bit more variety in the dining options available.

    The hotel was perfectly located within a lush tropical jungle. Plus, it was just a stone's throw away from some great restaurants, a stunning beach, and the beautiful west coast. 🏖️.
