“In my opinion, this family-oriented hotel in Jaco provides a relaxed, ecologically conscious environment near the beach. I appreciate the presence of two pools catering to both adults and children, plus the bonus of on-site recreational options. While not Western-standard, the wood construction lends a regal feel that I think enhances the overall experience.”
