The hotel is clean and the staff is very pleasant and helpful. The rooms are very large. Private beach. Very beautiful ornamental gardens and flowers in the hotel grounds.

There is no air conditioning in the room. The fan doesn't really do its job.

"Relaxing Stay in the Deluxe Villa with great staff"

7.0

The Kunken is located down a steep single lane concrete track (just about accessible by 2-wheel drive cars) in a glorious location overlooking the Golfo Dulce, with a long sandy private beach and canoes/paddleboards available free. It's a small "hotel" with 7 villas and a "house" all run by a day manager and two bar/waiting staff; all of whom were very hospitable during our stay. This isn't the Four Seasons, it's laid back and informal; sometimes quite so. Don't expect western-style, major hotel chain elements. The villas don't have aircon, just central fans but, as the official pictures show, the upper "walls" are in fact open but with fine wire mesh to keep the bugs out. We had breakfast and dinner most nights as there's very little available in the vicinity & I don't recommend driving at night. Some of the menu is really good, some less so. The wine selection is pretty good. The resident club foot coati, we named Cassidy, patrols the grounds and colourful birds frequent the fresh fruit left by the dining room.

There was a problem with the hot water supply, which got sorted on the second day (mañana). Our villa and pool was the last one, adjacent to the jungle so was relatively private; however the side wall facing the adjacent villa had no curtains. Both bedrooms in the villa had half height curtains on the front elevation. If you need complete darkness and quiet to sleep, you may struggle as the dawn chorus kicks in at 0530 and, being adjacent to the jungle, it was at Spinal Tap volume of 11. So, bring a good eye-mask and ear plugs if you want to sleep past 0500 everyday. The bed in the main room was fine; however the single beds in the second room were very firm and would benefit from new mattresses. There appears to be a slight disconnect between the cost and the quality and level of facilities in the villa. Having said that, we had a wonderful relaxing stay, which wasn't perfect but, if returning to the Osa, we would consider staying again. The villa descriptions on Booking.com and the official (English) website are not very accurate.

"Paradies mit Schönheitsfehlern"

9.0

Eine parkähnliche Anlage in geradezu paradiesischer Lage, direkt am Meer, eingebettet in den Urwald. Schmackhaftes Frühstück und Abendessen, sehr netter Service im Restaurantbereich.

Wir hätten uns gewünscht, dass die Insektengitter dicht wären. Das Abendessen war überteuert, und es gab in der Umgebung keine Alternative.

"Beau cadre mais rapport qualité/prix/service pas aligné"

7.0

Le cadre, le calme.

Équipements quasi inexistants, peu entretenus, personnel sympathique mais sans aucune idée du service. On vous dit que le petit déjeuner démarre à 6h, personne sur place avant 6:30, on vous demande au petit déjeuner si vous dînerez au restaurant le soir - sinon ils le ferment… Au vu du prix, on s’attend à mieux!

L’endroit, le calme , le beau et grand jardin , la belle suite avec sa salle de bain ouverte sur l’extérieur. Nous étions seul dans l’hôtel et on nous a préparer une très jolie table pour le soir .

Pour ce standing d’hôtel , je pense que la chambre devrait être faite chaque jour . Nous avons demandé 4 capsules supplémentaires pour la machine à café de la chambre , nous avons dû payer 11 dollars. Vu le prix de la chambre, je pense qu’ils auraient pu nous les offrir.

"Very Good"

7.0

The view and the whole place is astonishing. We got delicious welcome drinks. The staff was very endeavored.

The restaurant for this kind of „boutique“ hotel was very disappointing. It is ridiculously expensive for what you get. Also, it took the chef more than 30 minutes to prepare two pizzas (pizzas weren’t better than frozen one’s) as we were the only guest that night. We had a Caprese Salad as starters and we literally got two thin-sliced tomato pieces and three mini mozzarella balls for 15$ (!). The whole restaurant really needs to think everything through as also other guests were complaining.
