"It is a bit out of the city center, so you better have your own transportation, but there are also taxis around and they even have bicycles to use."

“This hotel distinguishes itself with spacious accommodations and immersion in a vibrant jungle setting-a surprisingly welcome contrast to the typical Jaco experience. While a short drive from the town's center, the reward is a tranquil environment where the sounds of wildlife replace the bustle. I especially appreciate the hotel's commitment to blending comfort with Costa Rican aesthetics.”
