The hotel staff were very friendly but the hotel itself was not that great. Definitely make sure you have a car or you’ll have to climb mountains to go anywhere. Definitely don’t book the studio room- it isn’t very clean and it isn’t in a good location.

A very beautiful and secluded resort just off of the Ocotal Beach area. A short drive from Playa Coco that includes beautiful black sand beaches. The villa was spacious and had lovely views of the ocean. If you have a car, it is an ideal stop as you can access other restaurants nearby, like father rooster, and others in coco. The restaurant at the hotel was also very tasty, and the staff was very friendly.

We had the most beautiful view from our room. I loved that every space was an individual cottage, so there was no “hotel” noise from other guests. The beds were comfortable and the staff was very friendly.

It was our first time staying at this resort. The home/property that we resided in during our visit was nice and well maintained. The home was very comfortable and surroundings was quiet. The resort itself was clean, safe and well maintained. The resort staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The resort restaurant was very good and had many food/drink options. We would definitely like to come to this resort again.

Restaurant was really good. Fresh seafood was delicious. Beach was small, not clear water, dirty ocean water, Room 41 was small, outdated, bugs, scorpions in the room, they did spray for them when we told them. No parking at the cabin so we had to park in another unoccupied spot accross the street. Shower was dirty when we arrived. Would i stay there again? Probably not. Would i recommend to friends, no.

Lovely!

This is a lovely little resort. Clean, well maintained and super friendly staff. We stayed in villa 20 which was perfect for the two of us. Beautiful grassy area and nice little patio with a slight view of the ocean. Easy walk to the restaurant and beach although coming back is uphill. Pools were clean and the small bay was quiet. My only complaint ( if you can call it that) is the room amenities. No maid service, no coffee or any condiments needed to cook any food you may have brought. Not a huge deal but considering the restaurant does not open til noon, at least coffee should be provided. There are no ice machines or any typical amenities you might expect. For us, these were minor issues. We absolutely would stay here again!

A friend and I stayed at this resort for one week and every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. From the minute we arrived, we were met with nothing short of impeccable service. Every employee at this resort went above the highest bar to ensure we had the best experience as first-time visitors of Costa Rica. The servers at the restaurant did an amazing job in making us feel welcomed during each visit and went out of their way to give us special experiences, such as preparing a table for us along their beachfront. Abi, the concierge, also went above and beyond to ensure all of our itinerary-related needs were taken care of and immediately addressed any concerns we had in the most efficient, professional matter. The conditions of the resort, the amenities (i.e, the pool at the top of the resort), and the views we had from our two-person villa were also amazing. Overall, I highly recommend BPV to anyone who wants to visit Costa Rica and know this will be my go-to place when I come back.

The property is very well kept. The staff and that is all the staff were wonderful and extremely helpful. The resort and location is great if you want to disconnect and just chill and relax. I was glad that I did read other reviews before going down. I was not planning to rent a car but we are very glad we did. You need a car if you want to do anything like site seeing and to eat at any other restaurants other than the one at the resort. The food at the resort was fantastic along with the drinks but it can be expensive. We stayed there a week and would have be bored if we did not rent a car. The unit we stayed in was fantastic and unbelievably clean. Had a great full equipped kitchen. What we did to help ourselves was we visited the marcados/ grocery stores and bought groceries to cook at the house and save money

Good location, great restaurant. The pools are perfect. The unit was a little dated. A lot of little details just weren’t quite right. For example there was a coffee maker and filters, but no coffee. And, no place on the property that served coffee in the morning anywhere. But overall very comfortable, nice staff, great views.
