As the photographs indicate, this condo is spacious and has a large balcony and two huge bathrooms. It is perfect for a couple with two children.
Pros:
- the condo was very clean and comfortable
- Corby was a very friendly and helpful host; she met us personally, took us up to the condo, and provided lots of information and good recommendations and was responsive when we needed to get in touch
- the condo includes access to a gym (pictured in listing) which was adequate albeit a bit worn, and a pool (also pictured) which was beautiful and included a little water slide
- free access to a private beach club a quick drive away just off Ocotal Beach; it's a great place to sit in the shade, store stuff (take a lock for lockers), or use the washroom/shower
- there is a washer/dryer right in the condo, which makes it easier to pack light and re-use clothes
Cons:
- pool and gym are 1 km from the condo, and it's very hilly and steep to get there, so popping over on foot for a workout or swim is not appealing in the Guanacaste heat; listing indicates a car is needed, but we didn't realize it would be needed for onsite amenities
- condo is nice and clean but showing wear/age and need for some replacements; for example, the washer died mid-cycle
- view from the balcony is not as pictured; there is now a building under construction on the sandy hill on the left side and an excavator; you can still see the ocean, but the photo does need updating
Overall, a very good experience.
