Sehr schöne Anlage mit Pool und vielen Bäumen. Wir konnten Brüllaffen bei den Nachbarn im Garten beobachten.

Das Personal hätte freundlicher sein können.

"Very quiet, pleasant and relaxing hotel and villas to stay just hundreds of meters from Potrero Bay."

9.0

My wife and I would like to thank Rosemary and the rest of the staff for a very relaxing stay at this charming property. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful, and the room was great - nice kitchenette, really great AC and wifi, super comfortable bed.

We are older and my wife found the area around the hotel a little bit challenging to walk as you have to walk on the road as there are no prepared sidewalks, so I was aware of scanning for vehicles and for safety all the time. It's a minor issue tho as everyone does it, vehicles drivers generally drive quite slowly and calmly, and they all know to give room for pedestrians.

"Satisfactoria, bun punto para trasladarse a playas más bonitas y cercanas."

8.0

Bueno el desayuno y el lugar con su ubicación era el esperado, un poco de ruido por tránsito vehicular cercano y negocio con gente tomando y enfiestada al puro frentel hotel.

Se necesita espejo de cuerpo entero y otras facilidades, como refri y cafetera. Pero esa es la condición de la habitación qué tomamos.

"Great stay with friendly staff, a calm and relaxing small hotel setting, convenient location near be"

9.0

We had a great stay at Bahia Esmeralda Boutique Hotel & Villas. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was calm, laid back, and relaxing. The hotel is a smaller complex, which made it feel more personal and quiet. The location was very convenient. It is about a 10 minute walk to the beach, with a convenience store right across the street and a larger grocery store about 5 minutes away. It is also close to Playa Flamingo and only about a 20 minute drive to Tamarindo. Our kids had a blast in the pool and loved exploring the surroundings, especially spotting iguanas around the property. Overall, a very enjoyable and easy stay for a family.

"Placentera"

9.0

Las instalaciones muy bonitas,la piscina grande y limpia. La comida muy rica, únicamente el servicio de restaurante es de las 17:00 horas a las 21:00 horas. Varias playas muy cerca incluyendo las catalinas y flamingo en fin un lugar muy bonito . Lugar seguro cuenta con parqueo y guarda. Después de las 21:00 se cierra el portón y se abre con clave el portón de acceso. Se pueden observar monos aulladores camino hacia las Catalinas en un mirador pequeño q hay. Las Catalinas es gratis caminar por sus calles y el vehículo te cobran 3 mil colones por todo el día. Los restaurantes se encuentran bastantes y para todos los gustos y presupuestos no es un lugar caro para comer. Excelente opción para vacacionar. En la playa no se observa mucha gente.
