Date of Stay: July, 2008

You report: This reservation may be cancelled at no charge until 6 p.m. on the day of arrival. This is so untrue. My friends and I were miserable at this hotel because the owner didn't tell the truth about the beach nor the distance to town in July, which is rainy season. He said the beach was great for swimming and he had a 300 meter trail from the hotel to the beach. After arriving, I asked about the trail and he said it wasn't safe because of the crocodiles, so we walked the road, then crossed the river with crocodiles. When we wanted to leave three days earlier than planned because the river also flooded the road, making it a very long and expensive distance to Samara, he told us we couldn't just pay for one additional night, but all three or he'd call the tourist police. The first day, he also warned that we not go out above our waists because it was dangerous. Before making reservations, I specifically asked if there were rip tides or if it was safe for swimming, the distance to the beach, and the distance to Samara. The owner would not let us use the internet so I couldn't look up his reservation policies, nor were they posted, but he went on and on about how one must pay the entire fee, which is not the info posted on your website. He also said for a fee he'd take us to town after we left his prison at a very costly fee, then said he had a flat, so once again, we had to pay for an expensive taxi because the driver must have a truck and be willing to go down that treacherous road. Very disappointing experience. Fortunately all our other stays in Costa Rica were pleasant. Avoid this hotel! If you want to stay in that area, go next door to Flying Crocodile where they let people use the internet and phone.
